Clients’ Stories
Since opening our Ipswich & Bury St Edmunds massage therapy studios, we’ve helped hundreds of happy clients relax, rejuvenate, and renew with the power of bespoke healing treatments
I had a brilliant deep tissue massage at Lana's Holistic Centre. The therapist was warm and welcoming. I suffer with tight muscles in my back, and shoulder area. I've tried a few places recently, however, the treatment at Lana's was the best and worked a treat. The centre is easy to find and there is free parking up to an hour nearby by. I'd definitely recommend Lana's.

Had been suffering from some back pain and on enquiry I managed to get a same day appointment. Location was easy to get to, bright and clean. The service was fantastic, and everything was explained. I came away feeling much better and results have lasted. Will definitely go back and would recommend.

I booked in to get my back seen to as I'd been suffering quite badly. I can honestly say that after an hour's treatment I have never had such good results before! I left feeling very relaxed with lots more movement and significantly less pain than I had when I arrived. Chris was very courteous and knowledgeable, explaining the different muscle groups and their function. The treatment rooms were hygienic and welcoming, will definitely be coming back!

Lana's deep tissue work is exceptional. As an older man with chronic tightness in shoulders, back and neck it means a lot to have skillful, deep pressure which gets to the roots of the pain and tension. I also gained more understanding of the causes and how to self-help.

What is a deep tissue massage?
Deep tissue is an intense form of complementary therapy, during which a specialist known as a massage therapist will use their fingers, hands, forearms, and elbows to deliver a high level of pressure to the body’s deepest muscle tissues and joints – manipulating them into a state of refreshment and relaxation using precise strokes. This popular technique is one of the most effective ways to target tense areas and knots within the muscles, tendons, and fascia – making it perfect for many living with the effects of acute or lingering injuries, alongside the side effects of conditions such as arthritis and general chronic pain.
How much is a deep tissue massage?
Across the UK, the price of a deep tissue massage can vary quite significantly, whether in line with your chosen provider, the length of the treatment or even, your location (deep tissue massage therapists in London tend to charge higher rates). The average price at present tends to set between £50 and £75 per appointment.
At Lana’s Holistic Centre, we provide a bespoke, 60-minute deep tissue massage for £60. Please visit our free online booking form to view our full list of treatments and accompanying prices.
Should a deep tissue massage hurt?
As a deep tissue massage requires a firm touch and pressure, it’s relatively normal to experience some tenderness pre and post-appointment.
Soreness or aching muscles are one of the most common effects of deep tissue massage – making many equate the treatment to a ‘workout’. In some circumstances, increasing your fluid intake and resting can assist in managing this – however, it should resolve itself within one to two days.
A higher level of pain may occur during or directly after the appointment if you’ve not previously had a deep tissue massage treatment. Icing points of soreness may assist in remediating this – however, if it does not subside, contact your massage therapist.
How often should I get a deep tissue massage?
How often you should get a deep tissue massage is dependent on your unique lifestyle and requirements. For example, for those with an acute muscle or joint injury, booking a deep tissue massage once every two weeks is said to aid significantly in reducing muscle
inflammation and encouraging healing. After six weeks of treatment at two-week intervals, our specialists typically recommend reducing frequency – however, their exact suggestions will depend on your individual circumstances.
For stress and anxiety relief – we recommend much the same, with frequent treatments every two weeks best for those experiencing particularly high levels.
When it comes to general wellness, a monthly maintenance massage is all that is needed to maintain and sustain good health.
How long does a deep tissue massage take?
How long your deep tissue massage will take depends on your chosen provider and their suggested treatment plan. Here at Lana’s Holistic Centre, we offer deep tissue massage on an entirely bespoke basis, meaning that although a typical appointment lasts for 60 minutes, if your requirements call for a different timeframe (e.g. a 90-minute full body treatment or 60-minute targeted treatment focusing on only one body part), we can work within it.
