Magda was absolutely amazing! The best massage ever. Can't remember last time I felt so relaxed even though I opted for a deep tissue. I arrived in pain and stiff but came out feeling so much better. Great overall experience. Highly recommend! Thanks, will be back soon.

Best facial I have ever had! So relaxing, so wonderful! Darcy is a dream. I arrived flustered and hot flushing in the middle of a heat wave and Darcy made me feel calm and comfortable. An incredible facial and massage and great knowledge too. I left on a cloud!

Sabita was so professional and gentle. She finished my eyebrow threading with a lovely soothing massage with aloe vera. Highly recommended!

Amanda is so welcoming and immediately puts you at ease. She takes time to find out which areas to focus on. The massage was amazing, very relaxing. Just what I needed! Will definitely come again.

Wonderful experience! First time having a massage treatment at Masaj and Magda released all the tension I had in my body with a deep tissue treatment. The whole experience was positive and welcoming.

Esme was amazing as always - this was my first time trying the Signature Facial & she explained everything we were going to do clearly at the start and checked in throughout the facial. I’m so happy I finally tried the intra-oral & micro needling treatments as I’ll definitely be continuing these. The facial massage was sooo dreamy - I was glowing afterwards!

The Deep Tissue Massage from Magda is easily the best I've received yet. A perfect combination of relaxation with the pressure that I needed. Lovely experience, can't wait to revisit.

I have just returned from a deep tissue massage with Sanna and it was just incredible. As someone living with chronic pain,it is difficult for me to find the words to describe how my body is feeling right now, as I'm not used to this! It just feels so loose and comfortable and not painful.... I honestly feel like I'm glowing and ready to take on the world. I will definitely, definitely be back again for more and I'm telling all my friends!

I was given a Masaj gift card for my birthday and yesterday had the most amazing, relaxing deep tissue massage with Kasia. I came in with my back all in knots and pain and left feeling calm and relaxed. I finally had a pain free sleep last night! The whole place was an oasis of calm from the loud and busy street outside and felt very cosy and comfortable. It was a genuinely wonderful experience and I will definitely be back.

Amazing massage with Cristina, she found all the areas of tension and relieved them. I was also able to choose from a range of various massage waxes - I went for the Women’s Blend in the end which smelled lovely. Can’t wait for my next treatment.

Tye and Lauren fitted us in last minute for treatments at the same time for a pregnancy massage and deep tissue for my husband. Both of them catered so well to our needs and gave us an experience that helped us to relax and feel comfortable in our different ways. Perfect place for Muslim women as all therapists are female and they do a good job to protect modesty. Great choice for anyone in East London, right off of Liverpool St. You don’t even feel like you’re in the city anymore as you drift away during your treatment. And it’s so affordable.

What an absolutely wonderful few hours being pampered by the team. Started with a cut and blow dry with Lorena - who is so lovely and always leaves my hair feeling so much healthier and refreshed! I then had a gel take off, classic manicure and eyebrow threading with Sabita - I absolutely love her. My nails look stunning with a great shape, length and colour. And since I’ve been threading with her - my eyebrows are thickening so nicely and the shape is so clean. Finally I had a deep tissue massage with Rosemarie - who is a magician. I cannot recommend the team enough. Thank you ladies!

It was my first time trying a service at Ashanti's Treatment Rooms and I had an amazing experience! my hydrafacial left my face glowing and Ashanti took the time to explain to me what each step was for. I was so suprised from the head massage as well that I didnt want to leave and stay for a full body massage. This is currently a one woman show so please be aware that you may have to wait a few minutes outside whilst she finishes previous treatement which is not a big deal. I would highly reccomend her facials and will be going back in a few weeks already :D

Very friendly, professional, calm environment. Amazing hair wash and head massage - out of this world. My hairdresser Karina was friendly and interested in me and my hair and styled my hair perfectly. I would definitely recommend. I would travel to this hairdressing salon to receive the service and hair expertise.

The best facial I’ve ever had, Esme is wonderful! Tension melted away with the massage followed by the buccal facial which was amazing as I grind my teeth a night, the results were immediate and lasting.

Deep Tissue Massage FAQs
The reason a deep tissue massage can leave lingering pain and discomfort is because they involve intense physical pressure on your body. It’s completely normal for the soreness to last for a day or even two or three!
It’s normal to feel some soreness after a deep tissue massage, as they can be quite intense. Think of it as the same kind of pain you get after a hard workout! The treatment itself does involve high pressure being applied to your body, and there may be some discomfort - if it becomes too much, you can always let your therapist know.
However, it’s important to note that while soreness can be common, you shouldn’t be feeling any extreme pain post-massage. If this is the case, you should tell your therapist and your doctor too.
Feeling slightly sick or dizzy after a massage, particularly a deep tissue massage that involves intense pressure on your body, is quite common. It’s normally as a result of dehydration - a deep tissue massage releases toxins from your lymphatic system that build up under your skin. The best way to remedy this and flush out those toxins is to stay hydrated, so make sure you drink a little water regularly before your massage and hydrate thoroughly afterwards!
However remember, if you are feeling any severe discomfort, pain or sickness after your treatment, you should talk to a healthcare professional.
There are no hard and fast rules on how often you should get a deep tissue massage - it’s more about what feels right for you and what provides the most benefits. This could be daily, a few times a week, every month - whatever makes you feel comfortable.
Remember you can always ask your therapist to recommend a treatment plan, as their expertise means they’ll know how to address the underlying issues you may be suffering from.
To prepare for your deep tissue massage, one of the most important things is to avoid eating a heavy meal or drinking a lot of liquids before the treatment. A deep tissue massage involves intense pressure being applied to your body, which can be uncomfortable on a full stomach.
Otherwise, the main thing you should do is get yourself in a relaxed state of mind and body, so the massage can be as effective as possible. Try to arrive early so you can let yourself unwind before your massage starts.
When you get a deep tissue massage, your therapist will ask which area of your body you want them to focus on. There is no standard method - the treatment should be tailored to your specific needs, but all therapists will have their own individual styles too.
You’ll be asked to lay on the massage table, either on your front, back or side depending on what area is being massaged. Your therapist might begin lightly at first to warm up your muscles, before moving on to the areas of focus.
This will involve deep pressure being applied slowly with hands, arms and elbows to release your contracted muscles and tissues. The time it takes to complete the treatment can vary, but it will normally be between one and two hours.
After your deep tissue massage, you’ll want to ensure you feel the full benefits and maximise your gains. It can be helpful to:
- Rest: After an intense massage session designed to relax your mind and body, the best thing to do is help yourself stay relaxed. Whether it’s having a nap or just putting your feet up in front of the telly, let yourself feel the effects of your deep tissue massage. Try and wait for at least 24 hours before any intense physical activity
- Eat and drink - but keep it light: While you should ideally avoid eating or drinking too much before the massage, afterwards you should definitely hydrate yourself. It’s also normal to feel peckish after a massage, so a light and nutritious meal can really hit the spot
- Have a bath: Nothing aids the relaxation process quite like a warm bath - and if you’re feeling it, treat yourself to some bubbles or a bath bomb to really indulge yourself. However you should avoid a hot bath or shower as this can aggravate inflammation. If you have an injury, it’s better to take a cold shower or bath for pain relief.
