How much does a deep tissue massage cost in NYC?
At New York Lions, deep tissue massage starts at $150 for a 60-minute session with a licensed male therapist. Extended 90-minute sessions are available for deeper therapeutic work.
Is deep tissue massage good for back pain?
Yes. Deep tissue massage is one of the most effective treatments for chronic back pain. Our licensed therapists target deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue to release chronic tension patterns and reduce inflammation.
What's the difference between deep tissue and Swedish massage?
Swedish massage uses lighter, flowing strokes for relaxation, while deep tissue uses slow, firm pressure to reach deeper muscle layers. Deep tissue is better for chronic pain; Swedish is ideal for stress relief. We offer both at New York Lions.
How often should you get a deep tissue massage?
For chronic pain or tension, we recommend every 1-2 weeks initially, then transitioning to monthly maintenance sessions. Your therapist at New York Lions will create a personalized treatment plan.
