Massage in the centre of Athens, minutes from the Acropolis

Created for guests arriving in Athens after long flights, when the body clock is out of step and legs and back feel heavy.

The session combines lymphatic-style drainage on the legs, back and shoulder release, and scalp work that eases pressure behind the eyes and temples.

Breathing slows, circulation improves and sleep usually comes far more easily the same night.

A flowing full-body massage built around essential oils selected for your state on the day — calming, uplifting or restorative.

Slow, rhythmic strokes carry the aromatics into the skin while the scent works directly on mood and breathing.

Deeply relaxing rather than corrective; ideal for stress, low mood and poor sleep.

Our core foot treatment, beginning with a warm foot bath and moving into firm, rhythmic work over soles, arches, toes and ankles.

It is the fastest relief we offer after a day of Athenian marble and cobblestone, and it works on the whole body — the feet are where the day is stored.

You stay seated and dressed; only shoes and socks come off. Walk-ins are welcome at Feet First Athens.

Precise pressure applied to reflex points on the feet that correspond to organs and systems throughout the body.

Rather than general relaxation, the therapist works methodically through the reflex map, pausing on tender points to release them.

Sensitivity in specific spots is common and usually eases within the same session.

The authentic Nuad Thai technique, performed on a mattress in loose comfortable clothing, with no oil.

The therapist uses palms, thumbs, forearms, elbows, knees and feet to apply pressure along the body's energy lines, combined with assisted yoga-like stretches for hips, back, shoulders and legs.

You leave taller, looser and more mobile. Best on a light stomach, and tell the therapist immediately if any stretch feels beyond your range.
