Choosing the right massage

What type of massage should I get?

The right massage depends on your preferences, goals and any areas you want the therapist to focus on. A relaxation massage may suit someone looking for a calming experience, while deep tissue massage is generally more focused on areas of muscular tension. If you are unsure, discuss your needs with the spa before your appointment.

Relaxation massage generally focuses on a calming, comfortable massage experience, while deep tissue massage uses more focused techniques and pressure around areas of muscular tension. The appropriate option depends on your preferences and individual circumstances.

What is deep tissue massage?

Deep tissue massage is a massage technique that uses slower, more focused pressure to work on deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue. It is often chosen by people seeking focused attention around areas of muscular tension.

Is deep tissue massage painful?

Deep tissue massage can feel more intense than a relaxation massage, but it should not simply be treated as a pain test. Communication with the therapist is important. Tell the therapist if pressure is uncomfortable so the technique can be adjusted appropriately.

Which massage is best for relaxation?

A relaxation-focused massage is generally the natural choice for someone whose main objective is to unwind. Discuss your preferred pressure and areas of focus with the therapist before treatment.

Yes. Relaxation is one of the common reasons people choose massage. A calm environment, comfortable positioning and appropriate massage pressure can all contribute to the overall experience.

Can massage help with muscle tension?

Massage may help some people feel more comfortable when dealing with muscular tension. Deep tissue massage is specifically designed to use more focused pressure. Persistent, severe or unexplained pain should be discussed with an appropriate healthcare professional.

How often should I get a massage?

Your first massage

What should I expect during my first massage?

Your appointment will normally begin with a discussion about the treatment and your preferences. You will be given appropriate privacy to prepare, and the therapist will explain the treatment and positioning. During the massage, communicate if the pressure, temperature or positioning is uncomfortable.

What should I wear to a massage?

Wear something comfortable to your appointment. During treatment, professional draping and privacy procedures should be used, with only the area being treated exposed. Ask the spa about its specific preparation requirements.

Should I eat before a massage?

It is generally more comfortable to avoid having a very large meal immediately before a massage. A light meal or snack may be more comfortable for some people. Individual preferences vary.
