Oil Massages

Oil massages in Athens, beyond Thai

Our therapists carry traditions from Bali, Japan and Europe alongside their Thai training — deep tissue for stubborn backs, hot stones for cold-season tension, Shiatsu for balance, and gentle care for the seasons of life that need it most.

Why oil massage

Beyond Thai

Swedish, Californian, Shiatsu, Balinese and Lomi Lomi — techniques from across Europe, Asia and the Pacific, each performed by therapists trained in that specific tradition.

For the active body

Deep tissue, sports massage and targeted trigger-point work for runners, gym-goers and anyone whose week lives in their legs and shoulders.

For tender seasons

Gentle, focused care — anti-stress sessions for overloaded weeks, at the pressure and pace your body asks for.

The menu

Classic oil massages

Ten massages from the world's great oil traditions — from a 30-minute deep tissue at €50 to two-hour journeys. Available at both Athens locations.

Το κλασικό ευρωπαϊκό μασάζ με λάδι — μέτρια πίεση, μακριές κινήσεις, χαλάρωση σε όλο το σώμα.

Read the full description

The classic European relaxation massage: long, gliding strokes with warm oil, kneading and gentle friction across the whole body.

It improves circulation, warms and softens the muscles and calms the nervous system, at a medium pressure that suits almost everyone.

A perfect first massage, and the safest choice when you are unsure what to book.

Californian MassageΚαλιφορνέζικο Μασάζ

Long, slow, enveloping strokes with warm oil. Gentle in pressure, profound in effect — ideal if you find deep tissue too intense.

Μακριές, αργές, περιτυλιγμένες κινήσεις με ζεστό λάδι. Ήπιο στην πίεση, βαθύ στο αποτέλεσμα — ιδανικό αν το deep tissue σας φαίνεται έντονο.

Read the full description

A slow, deeply emotional style of massage built on long, continuous, enveloping strokes that connect the whole body.

Rather than working knots individually, the therapist keeps the movement unbroken so the body stops defending itself and lets go.

Recommended for anxiety, mental overload and periods of stress rather than for specific muscular injuries.

60 min €100
90 min €150
120 min €200

Deep Tissue MassageΜασάζ Βαθέων Ιστών

Slow, sustained pressure into the deeper muscle layers and connective tissue.

Αργή, σταθερή πίεση στα βαθύτερα μυϊκά στρώματα και στον συνδετικό ιστό.

Read the full description

Firm, focused work on the deeper layers of muscle and fascia, using slow strokes and sustained pressure.

The therapist concentrates on chronic areas of tension — usually lower back, shoulders and neck — releasing them layer by layer rather than all at once.

Some tenderness the following day is normal. Drink water and avoid heavy training for 24 hours.

Sports MassageΑθλητικό Μασάζ

Pre- and post-training work for athletes: mobility, recovery and injury prevention.

Εργασία πριν και μετά την προπόνηση για αθλητές: κινητικότητα, αποκατάσταση και πρόληψη τραυματισμών.

Read the full description

A performance-focused treatment for active bodies, before or after training and competition.

It combines firm strokes, stretching and targeted work on the muscle groups you use most, improving circulation and shortening recovery.

Tell your therapist about your sport, your schedule and any current niggles so the session can be planned properly.

60 min €100

Sports Massage & Trigger PointsΑθλητικό Μασάζ & Trigger Points

Sports massage extended with focused trigger point release on stubborn knots.

Αθλητικό μασάζ με στοχευμένη απελευθέρωση trigger points σε επίμονους κόμπους.

Read the full description

Sports massage extended with precise trigger-point release: sustained pressure held on the tight bands that refer pain elsewhere in the body.

Especially effective for shoulder, hip and lower-back pain that keeps returning after ordinary massage.

Pressure is firm and intentional; the therapist works with your breathing and stays in constant communication.

90 min €150

Shiatsu MassageΓιαπωνέζικο Μασάζ Σιάτσου

Japanese finger-pressure work along the body's meridians, traditionally performed clothed. Restores energy balance.

Ιαπωνική τεχνική πίεσης με τα δάχτυλα κατά μήκος των μεσημβρινών, παραδοσιακά με ρούχα. Αποκαθιστά την ενεργειακή ισορροπία.

Read the full description

A Japanese technique performed with rhythmic thumb, palm and elbow pressure along the body's energy meridians.

It is done fully clothed and without oil, alternating pressure with gentle stretching and joint mobilisation.

Balancing rather than sedating — guests usually leave calm, clear and noticeably lighter.

60 min €75
90 min €120

Balinese MassageΜπαλινέζικο Μασάζ

Indonesian technique combining acupressure, skin rolling and aromatic oils to improve circulation and calm the nervous system.

Read the full description

An Indonesian full-body treatment combining long strokes, skin rolling, acupressure and gentle stretching with warm aromatic oil.

It works both broadly and deeply, so you feel relaxed and thoroughly worked at the same time.

One of the best choices for tired travellers who want a single treatment that does everything.

Balinese Massage with Hot StonesΜπαλινέζικο Μασάζ με Ζεστές Πέτρες

The Balinese ritual deepened with heated basalt stones to release stubborn tension.

Το μπαλινέζικο τελετουργικό εμπλουτισμένο με ζεστές πέτρες βασάλτη για επίμονες εντάσεις.

Read the full description

Traditional Balinese technique with smooth heated stones added to the sequence.

The stones are glided over the muscles and rested on key points, letting warmth penetrate deeper than hands alone can reach and shortening the time the body needs to release.

Ideal in cold weather and for guests who always feel cold or hold persistent stiffness across the back.

90 min €150

Lomi Lomi MassageΜασάζ Lomi Lomi

Hawaiian temple-style massage — long, flowing forearm strokes at medium to strong pressure. A signature luxury experience.

Χαβανέζικο μασάζ ναού — μακριές, ρευστές κινήσεις με τον πήχη σε μέτρια έως δυνατή πίεση. Μια signature εμπειρία πολυτέλειας.

Read the full description

The Hawaiian 'loving hands' massage: continuous, wave-like forearm strokes that flow across the whole body without interruption.

There is no fixed routine — the therapist moves rhythmically around the table, working several areas in one long, uninterrupted motion.

Deeply meditative, and one of the most beautiful treatments we offer.

60 min €100
90 min €150

Anti-Stress MassageΜασάζ κατά του Στρες

A calming full-body treatment focused on the back, neck, shoulders and scalp.

Μια ηρεμιστική θεραπεία σε όλο το σώμα με έμφαση σε πλάτη, αυχένα, ώμους και τριχωτό κεφαλής.

Read the full description

A calming full-body session designed around the nervous system rather than the muscles.

Light-to-medium pressure, slow breathing and unhurried work on back, neck, shoulders and scalp help lower a racing mind.

Recommended during demanding work periods, before travel, or whenever sleep has become difficult.
