Deep Tissue Massage in South Wimbledon

Deep Tissue Massage at our South Wimbledon salon

Deep tissue is not simply a harder Swedish massage. The therapist works slowly across and into muscle fibres and the fascia around them, holding pressure on adhesions until they release, which is what makes it effective on a shoulder or lower back that has been tight for months rather than days. Izba Spa's therapists carry over 16 years of experience, and pressure is checked early and adjusted throughout.

Thirty minutes covers back, neck and shoulders — enough for desk tension. Sixty covers full body properly. Ninety allows full body plus concentrated work on one problem area, and is the better booking if you know exactly where the problem is. Deep tissue should feel intense but never sharp: anything that makes you brace or hold your breath is too much, and saying so gets a better result. Expect next-day tenderness similar to post-training soreness, gone within 48 hours.

The South Wimbledon salon is on Kingston Road, a short walk from South Wimbledon Underground station on the Northern line and on the 57, 93, 131 and 219 bus routes. Street parking is available on the surrounding residential roads. Wimbledon town centre, Colliers Wood and Morden are all within ten minutes.
