Deep tissue massage
At Walking On Clouds, we believe that everyone deserves a relaxing, deep tissue massage to relieve the body and mind of tension. Our experienced team work together to provide a welcoming and soothing environment, where you can let your worries leave your mind and your muscles unwind.
What is a deep tissue massage?
A deep tissue massage uses techniques that target the inner layers of your muscles and connective tissues, perfect for treating musculoskeletal issues, like strains and sports injuries. This is achieved by applying sustained pressure using slow, deep strokes to target the inner layers of your muscles and connective tissues.
Before having a massage with us at Walking On Clouds, one of our therapists will get to know the issues that you are facing and the areas of your body which are troubling you the most. After a discussion with the therapist and once you feel comfortable, the massage will begin. You will be asked to lie on your back or your front, depending on where the targetted area is. Our massage therapists will start of slowly, applying little pressure to warm up the muscles. After this, they will then start working on the problemed areas, kneading and stroking with a strong but comfortable amount of pressure.
Why should I get a deep tissue massage?
Although deep tissue massage does offer psychological benefits, the primary focus is to offer physical wellness. As suggested by the name, the massage aims to treat muscle pain by deeply massaging in to the tissues of the muscles. Science-backed evidence suggests that this massage can help to reduce pain in people with chronic low back pain.
Other people have discovered that deep tissue massages help a range of problems, such as:
Fibromyalgia
Sports injuries
Plantar fasciitis
High blood pressure
Sciatica
Tennis Elbow

“I’ve been going to Walking on Clouds for several months now and truly appreciate having a world-class massage on my doorstep in Hampstead. Gabriela and Alex give a deep tissue massage that has really helped to relieve and revive my body. It’s fair to say I have left every time walking on clouds, and the next day too. Can’t recommend them highly enough.”

“I have been to Walking on Clouds twice, having treatments with Gabriela and Mihaela. They were both exceptional. The therapists are attentive and focus on designing the best treatment for your specific condition. Amazing massages! The environment is very relaxing and conveniently located in a quiet corner in the middle of Hampstead village. A great addition to the neighbourhood. I will be a regular! If you are looking for a kind and professional service, this is the place.”

“While in London for work - coming from the Netherlands - in September and November, I went both times for a massage to Gabriela from Walking on Clouds. If I would live in London I would go to her every week. She is a fabulous and strong masseuse. After only having been there once when returning she remembered that I have back issues.
I took hot stone massage the first time and deep tissue massage the second time. The practise is very quiet, clean and good equiped. Gabriela and her partner really know their profession and make you feel very welcome in their practise.”
