Overview
At a Glance
Deep Tissue Massage is Novara's answer for tension that doesn't shift with a lighter treatment. Using sustained, focused pressure, it works through the layers of muscle tissue to target the specific knots and tight bands that cause chronic discomfort in the neck, shoulders and lower back.
- Targets chronic tension in the neck, shoulders and lower back
- Breaks down persistent muscle knots that lighter massage can't reach
- Especially effective for desk-related posture pain

Your Session
Treatment Process
Consultation
We identify exactly where your tension sits and agree on how firm the pressure should be.
Warm-Up
Muscles are warmed with broader strokes before deeper pressure is introduced, to avoid working cold tissue.
Core Treatment
Sustained, focused pressure targets tight areas and muscle knots layer by layer.
Relaxation
A gentler close brings circulation back to worked areas before you finish your session.

Deep Tissue Massage FAQs
A few questions guests often ask before booking this treatment.
Is deep tissue massage painful?
It's firmer than a relaxation massage and you may feel some discomfort on particularly tight areas, but it should never be sharply painful. Tell your therapist immediately if pressure feels like too much.
Will I be sore the next day?
Mild soreness, similar to after a workout, is common for a day or so after a firm session — this is normal and usually fades quickly. Drinking water afterwards helps.
How often should I book deep tissue massage for chronic pain?
Many guests dealing with ongoing tension find a session every 2–4 weeks helps maintain results. Ask our team for a recommendation based on what you're experiencing.
