Deep Tissue Massage: Your Best Ally to Relieve Built-Up Tension During the Holidays

Holidays are the perfect time to disconnect—but they can also take a toll on your body. A different mattress, long journeys, intense activities, walking under the sun, or even poor sleep can lead to muscle tension and contractures, especially in the neck, back, and legs.

In this article, we explain why a deep tissue massage is the ideal treatment to relieve that built-up discomfort and help you fully enjoy your stay on the island. Discover how to restore your body’s balance in a spa in Mallorca and turn your vacation into a true wellness experience.

Why Do We Accumulate Tension During the Summer?

Although summer is associated with rest, it also brings physical changes that can affect the body:

• Sleeping on unfamiliar mattresses

• Long flights or road trips with poor posture

• Physical activity without proper preparation

• Carrying heavy luggage or sitting for extended periods

• Wearing inappropriate footwear for walking

All of this can lead to muscle stiffness, neck and back pain, sore shoulders, or lower back issues. Fortunately, there’s an effective and highly enjoyable solution.

What Is a Deep Tissue Massage?

A deep tissue massage is a hands-on therapy focused on releasing muscle tension. It uses firm, slow, and targeted movements applied to areas with the most tension or muscular contractures.

Unlike a relaxing massage, this treatment works deep into the muscle tissue and helps:

• Release knots and muscle tightness

• Improve joint mobility

• Reduce pain and stiffness

• Relieve emotional stress

• Support faster recovery

It’s the perfect choice for anyone feeling physically overloaded and looking for a natural, effective solution.
