Session

Deep tissue massage

Slow, firm pressure through the whole body, for adults who like to feel the work.

Deep tissue here means slow strokes and sustained pressure, built up in layers rather than forced. Your therapist warms the area first, goes deeper where you ask, and backs off when you say so.

  4. 04

    Step 4: Finish

Good to know

Pressure, cover and what to wear

  • Pressure

    Pressure is set with you before the session and checked partway through. Say lighter or firmer at any time.

  • Covered

    You are covered by a sheet or towel the whole time. Only the part being worked on is uncovered, and it is covered again when we move on.

  • Ask your doctor first

    If you are pregnant, have a recent injury or surgery, or take medication that affects bleeding, ask your doctor before you book.

  • What to wear

    Undress to your comfort. Wear what is easy to take off and put back on, and leave jewelry at home.

Questions about this session

How deep will it go?

As deep as you want and your body allows. We build pressure gradually and you can change it at any time.

Will I be sore afterward?

Some people feel tender for a day, like after exercise. Drink water, move gently, and tell your therapist how you felt so we can adjust next time.

Which length should I book?

Sixty minutes covers the whole body at a steady pace. Choose 75 or 90 if you want longer on specific areas.
