experience.
Stretching Massage blends hands-on bodywork with carefully guided movement. Your therapist supports each stretch and works within a comfortable range rather than forcing flexibility. The session can be adapted around common areas of restriction such as hips, shoulders and legs.
Every visit begins with a brief consultation. You remain in control of pressure, temperature and comfort throughout, and the treatment is adapted within the scope of the selected service.

In detailHow stretching
How stretching
massage works.
Assisted, not forced
Your therapist moves your limbs through gentle, supported stretches while you stay relaxed. Each stretch is held within a comfortable range and released slowly — nothing should be pushed to the point of pain.
Massage between the stretches
Stretches alternate with massage techniques on the surrounding muscles, so the body warms up and lets go gradually. Typical focus areas are the hips, hamstrings, lower back, shoulders and neck.
Inspired by Japanese stretching
The sequence draws on Japanese assisted-stretching techniques. It is a good alternative for guests who prefer an active, mobility-focused session over a classic oil massage.
