PrimeVerified listingWhat is back massage?
A back massage concentrates on the area where most people carry their tension: the whole back, the neck and the tops of the shoulders. It is the standard short treatment in the directory, usually thirty minutes, and the one to book when you have a specific ache, a limited lunch hour or a limited budget.
The technique depends on the therapist and on what you ask for: Swedish strokes for a relaxing session, deep tissue and trigger point work for knots between the shoulder blades, or firmer work on the lower back after a long drive. Many therapists will add a few minutes on the scalp or the arms if time allows.
It is offered by nearly every listing on the site and is the most common mobile and office treatment. If you find yourself booking it every couple of weeks for the same problem, a longer remedial or sports session that looks at the hips, chest and posture as well is usually the better answer.

Where to find it in Glasgow
The West End, around Byres Road and the university, holds the largest concentration and the most variety, from Thai studios to shiatsu and Ayurvedic practitioners. Merchant City is the polished, clinic-led end, strong on sports and remedial work, and Finnieston has grown fast alongside its restaurants, with a younger clientele and good evening availability. The city centre serves the hotels and offices, largely by mobile appointment.
