Relaxing
Relaxing massage in Porto, at home
A relaxing massage in Porto is the slow session we book when the body wants a pause and going out no longer appeals. Women only, at home or in a hotel, in Gaia too.
The hands move slowly. Pressure sits between gentle and medium, and you tell us if you want it lighter. Thirty minutes are €30. An hour is €50.
What the relaxing massage is like
We work shoulders, neck, back and legs, with pauses for the breath. It is not a clinical treatment and we do not promise to remove a pain.
Next to the Therapeutic massage, there is less time spent on one point. Next to the Tantric massage, there is less ritual quiet. The centre is rest.
What you may notice
Some clients ask for this after a day spent sitting. What we describe is comfort and a pause, not a medical result.
You can ask for only the back and neck, or a fuller route across the whole hour.
- Less of a heavy feeling in the shoulders and neck.
- Time to slow the breath.
- Pressure agreed with you, from gentle to medium.
- The session stays in your space, with no shared room.

How we book, and how the hour goes
The request starts on Telegram (@ittzgaia) or in the Book now. Say the day, 30 or 60 minutes, and home or hotel.
On the day, the therapist arrives, lays out the sheets and confirms pressure and areas. A signal is enough. You can stop halfway through.
What to expect
At the start you tell us what you want to avoid. Pressure can change halfway through. Consent is not closed in the first minute.
The light and the quiet are those of your home. The session ends when the time ends. There are no paid extensions.
Who it suits
For someone who wants to rest without a protocol. If the tension needs more directed work, see the Therapeutic massage.
If you are not sure how to mix paces, the Personalised ritual is drawn up with you, at the same price.

Questions
What is a relaxing massage?
Soft to moderate pressure, so the body can slow down. It covers the back, neck, shoulders and legs, without a clinical aim. It is done at home or in a hotel, for women only.
What are the benefits of a relaxing massage?
You may feel less tension in the shoulders and a real pause. It does not replace health care. If the pain is sharp or the injury is recent, tell us before you book.
Does a relaxing massage help with stress?
It can ease the feeling of stress from the day, especially when tension gets in the way of rest. It is not psychological treatment.
What is the difference between relaxing and therapeutic massage?
Relaxing looks for general comfort. Therapeutic stays longer on one tense area. A personalised ritual can mix the two in the same hour, at the same price.
Can I ask for lighter or firmer pressure?
Yes. Say if you prefer light, medium or firmer, and you can change that halfway through. Comfort decides.
Is a relaxing massage done at home?
Yes. In Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia we come to your home or hotel. A bed or sofa is enough. We bring disposable sheets, oil and gloves.
How much does a relaxing massage cost?
€30 for 30 minutes and €50 for an hour. That is the same price as the other sessions. The table has no other amount.
Is it a good first visit?
Yes. It is the simplest way to meet the pace. If you already know you want another session, you can book that first.
