the DEEP deep tissue
Focused, therapeutic bodywork to release tension at the source.
the DEEP is a strong, targeted massage designed to address chronic tension, muscle tightness, and areas of deep holding. Using firm pressure, slow strokes, and techniques drawn from deep tissue, remedial, and myofascial release styles, this treatment works through layers of tension to restore mobility, ease pain, and rebalance the body.
Ideal for physically active people, those recovering from strain or overuse, or anyone who simply prefers a stronger style of massage. the DEEP is therapeutic and intuitive — always working with your body’s natural rhythm and limits, never forcing or rushing the process.
You’ll leave feeling more grounded, open, and aligned — with a renewed sense of strength and ease in your body.

Perfect before or after training — or as part of your regular recovery routine — the SPORTS keeps your body primed, mobile, and ready to perform.
