Medical Massage

Heal Your Body, Restore Your Balance

A demanding work schedule, poor posture, muscle fatigue, and chronic pain — all these daily stresses gradually build up in your body, limiting your freedom of movement.
Medical Massage is a therapeutic technique designed to release accumulated tension, support the musculoskeletal system, and relieve pain.

Based on scientific principles and performed by skilled hands, this massage not only relaxes the body but also promotes healing and accelerates recovery.

What Is Medical Massage?

Medical massage is a physiotherapy-based treatment focused on eliminating muscle spasms, improving circulation, stretching muscle tissue, and reducing pain.

Rather than offering surface-level relaxation, it targets the root cause of the problem.

At De SPA Antalya, expert therapists identify the body’s specific needs and apply personalized therapy — achieving both physical and mental recovery.

Treatment Process

  • Consultation and Assessment: Before the session, the therapist listens to your concerns and identifies problem areas such as tension, pain, or limited mobility.
  • Targeted Massage Techniques:
    – Deep tissue work
    – Muscle relaxation manipulations
    – Trigger point therapy
    – Rhythmic movements to improve circulation
    These techniques can be applied to the back, neck, shoulders, lower back, or legs depending on the individual’s needs.
  • Rest and Recovery Guidance: After the session, short rest and post-care recommendations are provided to support healing.
