Deep tissue or Chinese-style massage: which one do you need?
These are the two treatments people most often hesitate between, and the difference is simpler than menus usually make it.
Chinese-style body massage: the full reset
The Chinese-style body massage is the traditional 50-minute, whole-body treatment. The techniques work through the whole back, shoulders and legs, easing deep-seated knots and the kind of tension a long week leaves behind. Choose it when everything feels heavy and you cannot point to one spot.
Deep tissue: the targeted fix
The deep tissue session is 25 minutes of firm, precise pressure into the deeper muscle layers, focused on the back, shoulders and legs. It reaches the stubborn, specific tightness a general massage does not quite get to. Choose it when you know exactly where the problem is and want the most effect in the shortest time.
The honest rule of thumb
If you cannot point to one spot, take the Chinese-style. If you can point at it, take the deep tissue. And if you sit at a desk all day and it all lives in your neck and shoulders, consider the dedicated head, neck and shoulder massage instead.
Whichever you pick, the pressure is adjusted to you throughout. Say firmer or lighter at any point. Both run in private ensuite rooms, bookable online with 10% off, every day until midnight.
