Chair Massage
Chair Massage in Acton, West London
If you’re experiencing neck and shoulder tension, upper-back tightness or muscular stiffness from desk work, Chair Massage at ODNOVA Massage & Sports Therapy in Acton, West London provides a convenient and targeted treatment without the need to undress.
Also known as Seated Massage, treatment is performed fully clothed in a specially designed massage chair and focuses primarily on the neck, shoulders, upper back, arms, hands and head. Using massage, compression, acupressure and Shiatsu-inspired techniques, each session is adapted to where you carry the most muscular tension.
What Is Chair Massage?
Chair Massage is performed while you sit comfortably in an ergonomic massage chair that supports your body throughout the treatment.
You remain fully clothed, and massage oils are generally not required.
The seated position provides direct access to common areas of upper-body tension, particularly the neck, shoulders, upper back and areas around the shoulder blades.
At ODNOVA, treatment is personalised according to your muscular tension, preferred pressure and individual needs rather than following the same routine for every client.
What Can Chair Massage Help With?
Neck & Shoulder Tension: Desk work, driving, prolonged sitting and everyday stress can contribute to tight muscles around the neck and shoulders. Chair Massage allows focused treatment of these areas using massage, compression and pressure techniques.
Upper Back & Shoulder Blade Tension: Muscular tightness can develop through the upper back and around the shoulder blades following prolonged sitting and repetitive working positions. Seated massage provides easy access to these areas while you remain comfortably supported.
Desk-Work & Computer-Related Tension: If you spend much of your day at a computer, you may experience muscular tension through the neck, shoulders, upper back, forearms and hands. Chair Massage is particularly well suited to these areas, making it a convenient option for office workers, remote workers and people who spend long periods sitting.
Arm, Forearm & Hand Tension: Typing, using a mouse, manual work and repetitive activities can leave the forearms and hands feeling tired or tense. Treatment can be extended through the arms, forearms and hands according to your individual needs.
Stress & General Upper-Body Tension: Chair Massage can also be used simply as a relaxing treatment when your upper body feels tired, stiff or tense after work, travel or everyday activity.

One treatment is, in most cases, insufficient because the source of the pain is in the deeper layers of the tissue. Therefore, a series of treatments is recommended to achieve the best results. Usually, the first few massages should take place every few days, and then you can increase the time intervals between sessions.
If you are interested in a real solution to a problem, and not just its temporary "healing", a series of massage sessions is the best solution for you:

Each massage is preceded by a consultation, during which you will be asked about your expectations: whether this is stress and anxiety reduction, from tight or painful muscles, an improvement on a recent injury, or simply relaxation. You will also be asked about any temporary or chronic health conditions, as this will help establish the areas that need to be concentrated on or avoided. All this is important so that the right type of massage is tailored to your treatment.

Depending on the massage, you will have the option to either lie on a table or sit in a chair for your massage.
Most massage techniques involve lying on a cushioned table as well pillows to support different areas of your body, If you choose a table massage, you will be left in the treatment room, so that you can undress to your level of comfort and get snug underneath the towel. You may also stay fully clothed if you prefer to. During the massage, the areas which are not being worked on in the given moment will be covered with a blanket to keep you comfortable and warm.
If you choose a chair massage, you won't need to remove your clothing.
During all types of massage, you will be asked if the pressure is right. Harder pressure is mostly applied in deep tissue massage as muscles tend to be extremely tense. Please feel free to communicate if at any point the pressure is too hard or too light, as every person is different.
Massages are carried out using aromatherapy oils or lotions to moisturise the skin. If you are allergic to any common ingredients of body oils or lotions, please advise beforehand.
A typical massage lasts about an hour, although sessions can range from 60 to 90 minutes.
After a massage, you will be left in the treatment room alone to relax for a few minutes and then get dressed. After the treatment, most people feel extremely relaxed and free from long-term aches, there is also a feeling of increased energy which may last for days afterward. If you have gone for a deep tissue massage, you may feel slightly tender to start with, but after your muscles get used to the relaxed state, you should feel much better.
Most people like to close their eyes and relax, but if you prefer to chat or have any questions to ask then feel free to ask them. It’s all about your relaxation and you should do whatever makes you feel most comfortable.
