Our approach

Massage therapy that focuses on what your body needs

At Hermeduss, every session is adapted to you. Your therapist takes time to understand where you feel tension, discomfort or restriction, then focuses the treatment on the areas that need support. From sports recovery and deep muscle tension to back, legs and postural discomfort, the aim is simple: help you move with more ease and feel better in your body.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Clean and simple studio but very comfy massage bed. The massage itself was the best combination of both therapeutic for past injuries mentioned initially and soothing with relaxation. Medium pressure started off as agreed, a couple of times I mentioned a little more or less pressure on different areas and I left feeling so much better. Thank you!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been 3 times now and have had massive improvement in hip mobility and also reduced tightness in my legs. I also suffer back, neck and shoulder pain from driving for a living so I also have this seen to and get relief here also. I’d highly recommend Hermeduss and will definitely be going back again soon. Also great value for money.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Here as a performer at the Fringe. The walking on these hills has been brutal with my massive backpack. Attention to muscles in my calves, thighs and shoulders was great - pressure as hard or soft as I needed. Great value, highly recommend.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I really enjoyed the one hour deep tissue massage. The therapist, Mr Yovcho Hristov, knew very well what he was doing and he was very professional. I felt my body much better and releived from pain. I would highly recommend his treatments.
