Shoulder pain is epidemic among desk workers, frequent flyers, and anyone who spends hours hunched over screens or carrying heavy bags. The rotator cuff muscles, trapezius, and rhomboids accumulate tension that builds into painful knots, restricted range of motion, and a persistent ache that disrupts sleep and daily movement.
Our therapists work specifically on the muscles responsible for shoulder pain — the upper trapezius, supraspinatus, infraspinatus, and the muscles along the cervicothoracic spine. Shiatsu's sustained pressure directly targets trigger points, while Hot Stone therapy melts deep tension that manual work alone can't reach.

Everything you need to know before you book
When booking for a specific pain condition, mention the affected area and a brief description of the issue via WhatsApp when you book — for example, "lower back tension from travel" or "left shoulder knot, been there a week." This lets us match the right therapist and ensures they arrive prepared to focus on the right areas. Same-day bookings are available with 2–3 hours notice. For chronic or recurring conditions, a 90-minute session gives the therapist enough time to do thorough work rather than a surface treatment.
Avoid booking during an acute pain episode — massage is most effective in the sub-acute phase, when the area is sore but not in sharp spasm. A 24–48 hour gap after a significant flare-up is ideal. The best time of day depends on your routine: evening sessions give the muscles a chance to relax overnight; morning sessions are useful when pain is worst in the morning and you want to start the day with more mobility. For recurring conditions, consistency matters more than session length — regular 60-minute sessions outperform occasional 120-minute ones.
The therapist arrives with a full professional setup and will ask briefly about the affected area before starting. This takes 2–3 minutes and directly shapes the session. Communicate freely during the massage — more pressure, less pressure, or a different area — good therapists adjust in real time. After a targeted session on a problem area, some soreness in the 12–24 hours following is normal and expected; this indicates the tissue was worked properly. Payment is cash after the session; no deposit required.
