Massage at our North location is provided by Tension Tamers, an Amsterdam massage studio based inside Wijs Health on the Bercylaan. Their therapists work from a simple idea: no fixed routines. Every session begins with a short check-in, then adapts to what your body needs on the day.
Where physiotherapy is built around resolving a specific complaint, massage is about release and recovery. It eases tight or overworked muscles, calms the nervous system and helps you reset, whether you are training hard, sitting at a desk all week or simply carrying more tension than usual.
Each treatment below is a starting point. You can discuss your focus and preferred pressure with your therapist when you book or at the start of the session.
A slow, soothing massage that calms the nervous system and brings you back into your body. Long, flowing strokes invite deep rest and a full reset, ideal when you feel overstimulated or run down.
A focused, grounding treatment that works into the deeper layers of muscle and fascia. Firm and slow, it releases chronic tension and stubborn holding patterns, creating space where the body feels stuck.
A targeted massage for active bodies, designed to support recovery, improve circulation and help prevent injury. A good fit before or after training, or whenever you are moving a lot and want to stay resilient.
A precise, attentive session for areas holding physical or emotional discomfort. The therapist works with what needs attention most, supporting real release and relief.
A gentle, supportive massage for pregnancy from 13 weeks onwards. Adapted to each trimester, it relieves tension and discomfort while helping you rest and connect with your changing body.
A full-body treatment on a futon, blending assisted stretches, pressure points and energy line work. Done clothed and without oil, it creates flow, space and lightness throughout the body.
A clothed, oil-free treatment rooted in Eastern medicine. Through meridian pressure, breath and mindful touch, Shiatsu restores balance and grounding when you feel out of sync.
A deeply restorative belly massage working with the organs, fascia, breath and nervous system. Often chosen for digestion, bloating, fatigue or recovery from a demanding period.
Additional techniques such as cupping, trigger point therapy and muscle strain therapy can be integrated by some therapists. You can mention any specific interest when you book.
Sessions run from 30 to 120 minutes, so you can choose the depth and pace that suit you. Duo massages and Chi Nei Tsang are priced separately, with exact rates shown in the Tension Tamers booking system.
