Tension, meet your match
Long hours at your desk, high-intensity workouts or just everyday stress – whatever’s behind your muscle stiffness, this treatment works deep to loosen things up.
With slow, powerful strokes, a deep tissue massage releases tension, eases aches and boosts circulation to help your body move better and recover faster.
Breaks up deep knots
Strong, targeted pressure gets into tight, overworked muscles, freeing movement and easing tension where you need it most.
Restores flexibility
By working through layers of muscle, a deep tissue massage helps to release built-up stiffness, so you can move with ease again.
Boosts circulation for faster recovery
Deep, controlled strokes improves the blood flow to tired muscles, reducing soreness and speeding up post-workout or day-to-day recovery.
After a quick consultation, your Urban pro will perform a full-body massage treatment with strong pressure that builds up, focusing on any tight spots.
During treatment expect slow, strong strokes using elbows, fists and forearms to break up tension and bring relief.
You might feel sore after – it's like a workout for your muscles – but that’s just your body resetting. Any tenderness should ease off within 72 hours, leaving you looser, lighter and ready to get back to doing what you love.
After a more gentle, sleep-inducing treatment? You’ll love our relaxing massage, Urban classic or sleep massage options.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Find out more about deep tissue massage
Think of it as a muscle reset – your therapist applies firm, steady pressure and goes deeper into tight, knotted areas. It’s all about reaching those stubborn spots and helping your muscles release built-up tension.
Deep tissue isn’t for everyone. If you have diabetes, this treatment isn’t recommended.
Pregnant? Try our specialist pregnancy massage, available from your second trimester. If you’re dealing with a muscle injury or movement issues, our injury & pain management massage might be a better fit.
It should never be painful, but you may notice some pressure or discomfort as your therapist works through the knots – that’s normal. Just speak up if it feels too intense.
Feeling a bit worn out afterward? Totally normal, many people say it feels like they’ve had a good workout.
For the massage table (that your therapist will bring) you’ll need about 2x3m of floor space. That’s about the size of a yoga mat, with enough space to walk around the edge.
Deep tissue can ease general stiffness, but for persistent or serious issues – like recurring lower back pain, pinched nerves or frozen shoulder – our advanced recovery massage (delivered by specially trained pros) is a better fit. It’s designed for targeted, therapeutic support.
Treat yourself to some downtime – aim to rest for at least an hour afterward, keep sipping water and take it easy with exercise. You might feel a little soreness for up to 72 hours, but it’s perfectly normal and part of your body’s recovery process.
