Deep Tissue Back & Joint Massage

The Deep Back Tissue & Joint Massage at SPA VILNIUS is an intensive, targeted treatment designed for deeply tense back muscles, fascia and joints. It is particularly suitable for both physically active individuals and those with a sedentary lifestyle who experience persistent tension, stiffness or pain in the neck, shoulders and lower back.

The massage is based on deep, rhythmic pressure and tissue mobilisation techniques that help restore muscle elasticity and joint mobility. This is a stronger-intensity treatment recommended after workouts or in cases of daily physical and emotional stress.

Treatment Process

The treatment begins with a consultation, during which a SPA VILNIUS specialist assesses the client’s well-being and main areas of tension. Before the massage, the feet are cleansed with warm, moist gloves to help the body relax and prepare for deeper tissue work.

The massage focuses on the back, shoulder girdle, neck and décolleté area. Techniques include deep pressure, stretching, joint mobilisation and trigger point therapy. During the procedure:

• deep fascia and muscle layers are released,
• spasms and stiffness are reduced,
• tissue mobility is improved,
• blood circulation and lymphatic flow are stimulated,
• shoulder joints and the scapular area are mobilised.

Lavender cream and a muscle recovery balm are used during the massage to enhance the therapeutic effect. The intensity is adjusted individually according to the client’s needs.

The treatment concludes with a short relaxation phase, allowing the body to integrate the effects of the massage.
