Feeling tense, tight, or rundown? At Spavia® Lincoln Park, we provide several types of massages in the Evanston area, each with its own distinctive purpose and effects. While you're bound to feel more relaxed and refreshed after any of our treatments, there may be an option that's ideally suited for you.
Choosing the Right Massage in Evanston for You
To help you choose between our many spa treatments, let's explore two of our most popular massage styles in the Evanston area: Swedish and Deep Tissue.
Even if you're not familiar with different styles of treatments — or have never had one before — you probably have a certain image in mind. That image is most likely a Swedish massage, where you lay on a table while a therapist gently kneads your muscles. As one of the most widely practiced forms, it is often referred to as a classic style. Our Spavia Signature Massage — our most popular choice — is in the Swedish style.
We recommend this style for many of our first-time visitors, as it is relatively gentle and an excellent introduction to the benefits of these treatments. It can help ease physical and emotional tension, improve blood flow, boost flexibility, and put you completely at ease. This makes it a good choice if you want to relieve day-to-day tension or simply relax for a while.
A deep tissue treatment is a much more vigorous option. The movements are similar to the Swedish style, but in this case, a massage therapist will apply much greater pressure. This is a more structural form that is ideal for working out knots and pent-up tension. The overall experience is a bit more intense, but it shouldn't be painful, though you may feel some soreness afterwards.
This form may be the right fit for you if you have any chronic pain or injuries or if you're very athletic. If you have a persistent knot or kink in your muscles that's causing discomfort, you should also consider this treatment.
