WHAT TO EXPECT
Techniques Used: Precision and Skill in Every Session
Our Deep tissue is not the typical relaxing massage London offers.
​
We work on the problematic area for longer than what we do in swedish or aromatherapy massage. We need time to warm up the area. In this way we can reach deeper muscle layers to release deep-seated tension and restore movement at a deeper level.
​
We combine different massage techniques, such as deep compression strokes, trigger points and stretching. As a result, we will tailor the treatment to your specific needs, restoring the affected muscles' mobility.
​
As mentioned above, the pressure is deep but should never be uncomfortable. Please always speak to your therapist if you feel any pain or discomfort during your massage.
Deep tissue is an oil massage, but we don't use essential oils. Your therapist will ask you so to remove some clothing so we can massage the targeted areas in a more effective way.
​
Our Deep tissue massage sessions last from 30 to 90 minutes. If you have any specific concern you need to address, we would recommend to book at least a 45 minutes session. Even tough, our most popular sessions are 60 minutes long .
