Frequently asked questions about therapeutic massage
Find answers to the most common questions and step into your session with total peace of mind.
1. What is therapeutic massage at NG-Clinique?
At NG-Clinique, therapeutic massage is a personalized treatment for muscle tension and stiffness rather than one fixed massage technique. Depending on your needs, your therapist may combine classic massage, deep tissue massage techniques, cupping (vacuum) massage, gua sha and other manual techniques, working on areas such as the back, neck and shoulders.
2. Is therapeutic massage the same as deep tissue massage or classic massage?
Not exactly. Classic massage and deep tissue massage are techniques, while therapeutic massage is a personalized treatment that can include them. You do not need to know which technique you need before booking. Your therapist will discuss your needs with you and adapt the treatment accordingly.
3. Can therapeutic massage help with back, neck and shoulder tension?
Many clients with tension in the back, neck or shoulders feel relief after the first massage session. Massage can ease muscle tightness and stiffness, but it does not replace medical care. If you have severe, sudden or injury-related pain, please see a doctor first.
4. Which massage should I choose: therapeutic, relaxation or sports?
Choose therapeutic massage when you want to work on muscle tension, tightness or stiffness. Relaxation massage is chosen for unwinding and calm, and sports massage for stiffness after training. If you are unsure, book the option that seems most suitable. Your therapist will discuss your needs with you before the treatment and can adjust it or update the selected service if necessary.
5. How long should my massage session be?
A 30-minute massage is suitable when you want to focus on one specific area, such as a back massage or neck and shoulder massage. A 60-minute massage allows your therapist to work on several areas or provide a more complete treatment. A 90-minute massage gives additional time for a full-body massage or for several areas that need more attention.
6. Can cupping or gua sha leave marks?
Yes. Cupping and gua sha can sometimes cause temporary redness or marks on the skin. These usually fade naturally within a few days.
Please tell your therapist before treatment if you prefer a lighter technique or would prefer to avoid visible marks.7. How many massage sessions will I need?
Many clients with tension in the back, neck or shoulders feel relief after the first massage session.If the muscle tension has been present for a long time, the muscles are very tight, or the problem keeps returning, we usually recommend a course of 4-10 massage sessions. This allows your therapist to work progressively and more deeply with the areas of tension.After completing the initial course, we recommend maintenance massage at individually recommended intervals to help maintain the results and help reduce the chance of muscle tension building up again.Your therapist will recommend the most suitable frequency based on your individual needs and how your body responds to massage.
8. Will I feel sore after a therapeutic massage?
Some clients feel mild tenderness or tiredness in the treated areas for a day or so, especially after deep tissue techniques. Tell your therapist if the soreness is strong or lasts longer.
9. Should I see a doctor before booking a massage?
Please tell your therapist about any relevant medical conditions, injuries, medications or pregnancy before your massage.
In some situations, massage or certain massage techniques may need to be adapted or postponed. If you have an acute illness, fever or infection, suspected or diagnosed thrombosis, a significant medical condition, or if you are unsure whether massage is appropriate for you, please consult your doctor before treatment.
