Your therapist will assess tension, apply firm sustained strokes and targeted pressure to deeper muscles, and adjust techniques to comfort. Expect focused work on problem areas, occasional discomfort during release, and guidance on aftercare and hydration post-session.

Some pressure and brief soreness can occur as tight tissue releases, but therapists communicate to maintain tolerable levels. We customize intensity to your tolerance and can modify techniques to reduce discomfort while still effectively treating deep adhesions.

Frequency depends on injury severity, chronicity, and goals; many clients start with weekly sessions for several weeks, then shift to biweekly or monthly maintenance as symptoms improve and range of motion is restored.

Contraindications include recent surgery, acute inflammation, blood clots, contagious skin conditions, certain cardiac issues, or pregnancy stages. Disclose medical history and medications; therapist will assess suitability and may recommend alternatives if deep work is unsafe.
