The Benefits of Deep Tissue Massage for Office Workers – Reduce Tension and Pain in Gothenburg

Spending hours in front of a computer might seem harmless – but your body tells a different story. Many office workers in Gothenburg suffer from tight shoulders, stiff necks, and lower back pain. Deep tissue massage is one of the most effective ways to treat and prevent these issues.

What Is Deep Tissue Massage?

Deep tissue massage is a therapeutic technique that targets the deeper layers of muscles, fascia, and connective tissue. Using slow, firm pressure, this method helps release muscle knots (trigger points) and chronic tension caused by prolonged sitting and stress.

Unlike relaxation massage, deep tissue work aims to fix specific physical problems – not just provide a moment of comfort.

Common Issues for Office Workers

At Webster Body Therapy, we regularly meet clients in Gothenburg who work full-time in office settings. The most common complaints include:

• Lower back and glute pain

• Tightness in the neck and shoulders

• Headaches and tension migraines

• Numbness in arms or fingers

• Reduced mobility in the upper back and shoulders

These symptoms are rarely caused by one thing. Instead, it’s a mix of poor posture, lack of movement, and long-term stress.

How Deep Tissue Massage Helps

Deep tissue massage can:

• Increase blood circulation, accelerating the body’s natural healing process

• Reduce inflammation in overworked muscles and tendons

• Release tension in the fascia and connective tissue, improving posture and flexibility

• Lower stress levels – both mentally and physically

• Prevent future injuries by rebalancing the musculoskeletal system

If you spend most of your day behind a screen, regular deep tissue massage can dramatically improve how you feel – and how you function.

The Fascia-Focused Approach at Webster Body Therapy

At Webster Body Therapy in Gothenburg, we specialize in fascia-oriented manual therapy – going deeper than traditional massage. Our method combines deep tissue techniques with a holistic understanding of fascia, the nervous system, and biomechanics.

The result? Treatments that don’t just bring temporary relief but create lasting change in how your body moves and performs.

Who Should Book a Deep Tissue Massage?

Deep tissue massage is ideal for people who:

• Spend long hours at a desk

• Feel stiff or locked up in the upper body

• Train frequently but struggle with recovery

• Experience recurring back, shoulder, or neck pain

• Want to improve posture and reduce stress

We work with all kinds of clients – from entrepreneurs and creatives to corporate executives – and tailor every session to your unique needs.

What to Expect During a Session

Each session starts with a short consultation to understand your symptoms, work habits, and training routines. The treatment takes place in a calm, professional space and may include:

• Deep, slow strokes across your back, hips, and shoulder blades

• Fascial release techniques

• Targeted trigger point work (e.g., for tech neck or tension headaches)

We finish with advice and exercises – so the benefits of your treatment last longer.
