The Difference Between Relaxation Pressure and Firm Pressure

Relaxation pressure uses slower, broader strokes intended to settle the nervous system. It usually suits clients who arrive mentally full rather than physically sore.

Firm pressure is more deliberate and slower still, focusing on specific areas you name. It should never be painful; discomfort is a signal to reduce pressure, not to endure it.

Most sessions are a combination. We confirm your preference at the start and check in during the appointment, and you can adjust it at any moment.

If you are unsure, begin with relaxation pressure and ask for more on specific areas. That is the most reliable way to find your preference without overshooting it.
