Deep Tissue Massage
Deep Tissue Massage in Ampthill & Flitwick
At our massage clinic in Bedford, we specialise in deep-tissue massage. Deep tissue massage is a broad term used to describe most forms of firm, deep-pressure massage therapy. Many different types of massage therapy can be described as deep-tissue treatment (including sports massage), almost every country or continent will have a form of deep-tissue massage and the techniques can be just as different.
If you’re looking for a firm treatment to help you relax and unwind, then a deep-tissue massage may be just what you’re looking for. If however, you’re looking for a massage to help treat some form of muscular pain, then we recommend looking for a deep-tissue sports massage therapist who is specifically trained to treat these problems.
At our deep-tissue massage clinic in Bedford, our deep-tissue massages are only carried out by qualified sports massage therapists and as such are suitable for treating most forms of muscle pain and physical dysfunction.

Frequently asked questions
Do you use any other forms of massage therapy besides sports massage?
Yes. We also use Chinese Tui Na, Dry Cupping Therapy, Myofascial Cupping Therapy, and on occasion a little bit of Gua Sha. If there’s a technique that works for a particular purpose we’ll use it for that purpose.
What conditions does deep-tissue massage treat?
There are way too many conditions to list, but if something hurts or just isn’t working properly, then we can probably treat it. If we can’t, we’ll tell you what you need to know and/or refer you accordingly.
I’ve had a deep tissue massage from a Swedish Massage Therapist in the past, how is what you do any different?
Swedish massage can be great for relaxing as it focuses on the largest sensory organ in the human body – the skin. Sports massage and Swedish massage may share some similar techniques, but on a deep level are very different treatments.
Do you do full body massage?
No. A full-body deep tissue treatment takes a couple of hours to do properly and is exhausting for the therapist and client! In our experience, shorter targeted treatments are more effective.
What other forms of deep-tissue massage are there?
Many traditional ethnic forms of massage can be considered as deep tissue, although many do utilise a deep stretching component. The most common ones would be things like Thai massage, Turkish massage, Shiatsu, and Chinese Tu Na.
I’m confused as to what sort of massage I require, how do I know what to choose?
If you’re unsure what type of treatment you need, give us a call, we’re happy to give advice!
