Therapist but is often used as a form of therapy by other
Healthcare practitioners such as

Deep muscle therapy
Deep muscle therapy (created by Therese Pfrimmer), is a massage technique
that focuses on using a very specific set of movements applied to all
muscles and concentrating on all layers of the muscle that have become
depleted of their regular blood and lymphatic flow. This technique aims
to restore the circulation with its healing properties to the cellular
level. Deep muscle therapy is widely used to treat the following
ailments: carpal tunnel syndrome, neck and back pain, headaches, poor
circulation, whiplash, and more.

Deep tissue massage
Deep tissue techniques are generally designed for more focused massage
work. Working a specific joint, muscle or muscle group, the practitioner
can access deeper layers of the soft tissue. Starting superficially and
easing into the depth of the muscle slowly often allows more movement.
This is the recommended approach in this modality since each person
experiences pressure differently. If the pressure is applied too deeply or
too quickly, the muscle may tighten to protect that area, and unnecessary
damage or inflammation can be induced. Very little lubricant is used as
the pressure doesn't travel much over the skin. See also: Myofascial
