Massage for Office Workers
Hours at a computer, phone in hand, shoulders raised without noticing: for many people the back, neck and shoulders are the first to tire. A massage does not treat an illness and does not replace a medical consultation, but it can help relax tense muscles and give you a real break from the pace of the day. At BodyBar Studio in Botanica we have several treatments that suit this need.
What to choose
Intensive Massage (50 or 75 minutes) focuses on the back, shoulders, neck and legs, with firm pressure. Head and Scalp Massage (30 minutes) works on the scalp, the back of the neck and the shoulders, and suits the feeling of a “heavy head”. Facial Massage (30 minutes) relaxes the muscles of the face around the eyes, forehead and jaw, where tension gathers after many hours at a screen. Balinese Massage is a slower, gentler option for a complete break.
Simple tips between sessions
- get up and move for at least a few minutes every hour;
- adjust the height of your screen and chair so that your shoulders are relaxed;
- drink water and do small neck and shoulder stretches during the day;
- book massage at a regular interval, for example every two to four weeks, if it does you good.
What to expect
After the session, many clients feel more relaxed and with looser shoulders. The effect depends on the person, and if the tension returns quickly it is worth talking to your therapist about a regular rhythm of sessions. We do not promise specific results.
Back pain: when to see a doctor
If your back pain is severe, comes on suddenly, runs down the leg, comes with numbness, weakness or fever, or does not improve after several days, see a doctor before any massage. Get emergency help straight away if back pain comes with numbness around the genitals or buttocks, problems passing urine or controlling the bladder or bowels, or weakness or numbness in both legs. Massage is not a treatment for herniated discs or other spinal conditions and does not replace the therapy recommended by your doctor.
