About me
Welcome to Muscle Tussle,
My specify is Michał. I am a classically trained massage therapist and sports injury specialist.
I was professionally trained at the College of Classical Massage in anatomy and classical massage and am qualified to levels 3 and 4 in sports injury [all qualifications accredited by ITEC]. I am a member of the Sports Therapy Association and hold entire public liability insurance.
I have been interested in the anatomy and physiology of the human body since an early age. It all started quite simply, after having been exposed to all sorts of activities as both a dancer and a skateboarder.
In 2009 I had a minor cycling accident that led to issues with my knees. Several subsequent physiotherapy sessions not only opened my eyes to the incredible power of body manipulation that accelerates the process of recovery but also started me down the path towards learning more about the body. I have practised yoga for many years and also explored unlike stretching and rebalancing techniques, such as Japanese Sotai~ho. My cur

What to know about deep tissue massage
A therapist may ask people to lie on their side or their front on a massage table, depending on the massage area.
The therapist may first warm up the muscles with light pressure, before massaging the targeted area with slow strokes and applying deep pressure with the hands, arms, or elbows. This works to release contracted muscles and tissues.
People may necessitate repeat treatments to see improvements in areas of deep muscle tension or injury.
They may also need other techniques alongside massage therapy, such as physical therapy and exercise.
To find a suitable massage therapist, people may crave to consider the following:
- asking a healthcare provider for a recommendation or referral
- searching a recognized database, such as the American Massage Therapy Association
- researching a massage therapist’s experience, training, and qualifications
- checking that a massage therapist is willing to work alongside other healthcare professionals, especially when a person is undergoing treatment for a health condition
- making sure a massa
