Soft-tissue and deep-tissue massage improves joint mobility by reducing muscle and fascial tension and connective tissue thickening around the joint, increases flexibility due to muscular relaxation, improves circulation bringing more oxygen and nutrients to the muscles, reduces pain by stimulating the release of endorphins, improves proprioception through the stimulation of sensory receptors, and reduces stress via the parasympathetic nervous system.

One of the aims of osteopathy is to improve the structure and function of the body as a whole. Deep-tissue or sports massage is one of the ways we achieve this aim. By utilising techniques that encourage healthy movement of the joints, we are able to improve posture more effectively with osteopathic treatment.
