Massage for muscle tension release at Andrea Massage and Spa is a focused session designed to release the tension that builds up throughout the muscles over weeks of work, commuting and stress. Clients in Little Neck, Douglaston, Great Neck and Bayside book it when the shoulders have crept up toward the ears and the back feels wound tight.
Our studio on Douglaston Parkway in Little Neck, NY, is where the session begins with a short conversation about where tension has gathered and how firm you like the pressure. From there, your therapist plans the massage around your body. Google reviews describe the therapist as professional and the massage as the best so far.
Kneading and Slow Gliding Through Every Tight Area
Warming strokes soften the muscles first. Kneading and slow, firm gliding then work through the back, shoulders, neck, hips and legs, with extra time wherever the therapist finds tension. The neck and shoulders usually get the most attention, followed by the lower back and hips. Pressure stays medium to firm and is adjusted to your comfort, so the work goes deep enough to release the muscle while the session stays relaxing.
