GuideHow often should you get a massage?
For general relaxation and stress relief, once every three to four weeks works well for most people. For persistent muscle tightness from desk work, driving or training, every one to two weeks for a few sessions, then monthly, usually helps more. Your body and budget set the right rhythm.

For stress and sleep
A monthly aroma, Swedish or Balinese massage gives you a regular chance to switch off. Many guests book the same slot each month so it becomes a habit.
For desk-related stiffness
Neck, shoulder and lower-back tightness from long hours at a screen builds up week by week. A few closer sessions of deep tissue or back massage, then monthly maintenance, tends to work best.
For active people
If you run, play sport or lift weights, a massage every two to four weeks can help you feel looser between training days.
Signs you've left it too long
Headaches from tension, stiffness when you wake up, or shoulders that feel 'stuck' near your ears are all good reasons to book sooner.
