Deep Tissue and Myofascial Release Bodywork

$110/1hr -$130/75min - $150/ 90min - $200/120min

Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. Deep Tissue Massage is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries. Due to the nature of the deep tissue work, open communication during the session is crucial to make sure you don't get too uncomfortable. Keep in mind that soreness is pretty common after the treatment, and that plenty of water should be ingested to aid in recovery and rehydration of the fascia.

Co-contraction stretching is used during the session to lengthen and condition areas of the body.

Testimonials

  • I’d give Dan Fonseca more than 5 stars if I could! I was solo traveling for some much needed R&R and specifically sought him out when booking my massage based on reviews. I’m so glad I did! He was warm and attentive from start to finish, and it’s apparent that he has the utmost care for his work and his clients. The massage was incomparable to any I’ve ever had, both in approach and impact. Pressure was perfect, check-ins and prompts throughout were thoughtful and effective, and his overall demeanor was calming and healing. I left feeling so relaxed and truly cared for, and I look forward to coming again when back in the area. Dan is the best you could ask for!

  • Dan is EXCEPTIONAL- Highly intuitive and well versed on anatomy. If you're looking for pain relief blended with relaxation he's your guy. 12/10 🌟

    Stephanie Washburn

  • I don’t write a lot of reviews, but I found this place when I first moved to Maine 3 months ago, and I lucked out, finding the lovely and skilled Dan Fonseca on my first try. I knew in five minutes that I had found my new massage therapist. Dan is talented, knowledgeable, and just a delight to work with. I was a massage therapist for 12 years and spent the majority of that time providing massage in luxury resorts, so I’m extremely discerning when it comes to all aspects of massage service, and Dan is top tier. He really cares about what he does and it shows.

  • I booked a last minute deep tissue massage and was able to easily and quickly get in for an appointment. Dan did great work and was super communicative throughout the whole massage. At the end he even provided some helpful tips to stretch out my body and relieve stress and pressure in tight areas. Would highly recommend checking them out!

  • As someone who has suffered with daily, chronic back pain for over 25 years and have gotten massages and treatments from dozens of professionals, I have to say that my myofascial release treatments with Brandon and Dan have been probably the best treatments I have ever received! I've been searching for the right practitioner in the Portland area, and I'm grateful to have found Dan!
