Is it okay to ask for more or less pressure during a massage?

Information on adjusting massage pressure during your treatment at Soulhouse.

Yes, absolutely – you can ask for more or less pressure at any point during your massage. The treatment should feel comfortable and beneficial for you at all times. Simply let your expert know if you'd like anything to change – we're always happy to adjust.


Pressure adjustment & important notes

Your expert will adjust the pressure at any time to ensure you feel comfortable throughout the treatment. Especially in areas that are particularly tense or sensitive, certain techniques may feel unfamiliarly intense. This sensation is often a natural part of the releasing process and may ease as the massage progresses.

That said, the most important thing is that the massage feels good for you. If a pressure point is too strong or the sensation becomes uncomfortably intense, please speak up straight away. Your expert can immediately reduce the intensity and adjust the treatment so it continues to feel beneficial and pleasant for you.

Our experts will generally check in during the massage to ask whether the pressure feels right for you. If this doesn't happen in a particular moment, please don't hesitate to say something. Simply let us know if anything doesn't feel right – we'll adapt the treatment to suit you straight away.
