For my first ever Massage Sloth Presents, Maria Natera shows us some of her favorite deep tissue massage techniques for the back, neck, and forearm. I outline some of the techniques below, but keep your eyes peeled because she's constantly doing great work while she's talking! Check out her channel by clicking above; it's great for massage students (tons of anatomy discussion!) and established massage therapists. Thanks Maria!
