Your visit
It begins slowly, with golden essential oil and kneading, so each muscle softens before the deep work starts, and it ends with your arms and legs eased into long stretches.
Your therapist begins with a quiet chat about the pressure you like, any tight spots, and how you feel about warmth. Adjust anything at any point. This time is yours.
Ask, and more time goes to your back, shoulders, hips or legs. Intense is fine, sharp is not, and if firm massage is new to you, expect some tenderness.
New to massage? Just tell us. We’ll guide you through everything.

Aftercare
- Drink water before and after, and go easy on alcohol either side.
- Take a moment to sit up slowly before you stand.
Good to know
Ideal for
Anyone who enjoys firm pressure and would like their body to move more easily afterwards.
Please note
If you have a fever, a fresh injury or fracture, an open wound, inflammation, severe osteoporosis or a suspected blood clot, we wait or adapt the massage. If you take blood thinners, please check with your doctor.
Before your visit
- Tell your therapist about injuries, surgery, sensitive areas and anything you would like avoided.
- Say if you are pregnant or have a medical condition, and we check the massage is right for you.
- Do not arrive straight after a heavy meal.
- Ask for more or less pressure at any point.
The deep work waits
Nothing is rushed. Your therapist starts with slow strokes and kneading in golden essential oil, letting each muscle warm and soften before the deep tissue work begins.
Next, your therapist lifts your arms and legs into Royal Thai and yoga stretches. All you need to do is let go.
