The ritual
Named after the mountains
The Serra de Tramuntana runs the length of the island, solid and hard to ignore. We gave the name to our firmest massage. It finds the knot and keeps working until it lets go.
Deep pressure is combined with slow strokes, light stretching and targeted work on the trapezius, lower back and neck. Warm oil softens the tissue first, so the deeper work never feels rushed or rough.
People book it after hours at a laptop, after a night sleeping badly on a stiff neck, or after days of cycling, golf or sailing. Also when the back simply hasn't felt right for a while.

How the session goes
Warm up first, then go deeper
We prepare the muscle before we work on the tension, so it responds rather than resists.

While we set up, we ask where it hurts, for how long and how much pressure you like.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
You will feel firm pressure on the tight spots, but it should never be painful. The therapist builds up gradually and you decide how far to go. Most people describe it as a good kind of ache.
Mostly the back, lower back, neck, trapezius and shoulders, where nearly everyone holds tension. If something else needs attention, such as legs after a hike or forearms after sailing, mention it when you book.
Sixty minutes gives thorough work on the back, neck and shoulders. Eighty lets us add the legs or arms, or stay longer on a stubborn knot. If you have been stiff for weeks, go for 80.
Yes, it is the ritual we recommend after long rides in the Tramuntana or a few rounds of golf. Tell us which muscles are tired and we will spend more time on the legs, hips or shoulders as needed.
You may feel slightly tender, a bit like after a workout, and it fades within a day or two. Drinking water afterwards helps. If you have a recent injury, check with us before booking.
