Elevate your body, restore your mind with our massage treatments
At Rebalance Massage Amsterdam, our treatments are tailored to your individual needs through personalized analysis — targeting physical strain while promoting nervous system balance and emotional release. We offer expert, targeted bodywork for those seeking more than a routine massage.
For those wishing to share the experience, we also offer duo massages, where two treatments take place simultaneously in separate rooms, each customized to individual needs.
Rebalance massage
Makes you feel at ease
Our signature Rebalance massage is aimed to make you as relaxed as possible and released from pain or trauma. A refined set of massage techniques helps your body experience a calm state and bring a deep level of relaxation. The Rebalance massage has the gentle power of recharging and reconnecting between the heart and head. During this treatment, there will also be a focus on identifying and reducing any pain points so you will feel more in balance.
The massage is good for blood flow, eliminating any waste product that doesn’t belong in the body which also helps to improve the digestive process. Finally, it helps you soothe the mind.
Deep tissue massage
Long and deep massage movements to break down muscle adhesions
Deep tissue massage is practiced with long stroking movements and deep pressure points is directed towards deeper layers of muscle and fascia. This technique requires skillfully executed examination of all the muscles in search of unevenness in the tissue.
The development of connective tissue in the body is a continuous process which sometimes needs extra attention. By massaging it regularly, space is created between the tissue and the muscle, which allows the muscles to maneuver more smoothly. This treatment is ideal for those dealing with ongoing muscle tightness, post-injury rehabilitation, or stress-related pain.
Lomi lomi massage
Restores the flow of your own energy
Lomi Lomi is a Hawaiian healing full body massage which was passed on from generation to generation. The technique reflects the rhythmic movement of the waves of the ocean, trying to restore the flow of your own unique energy. With this massage you can dive deep into the process of letting go to help release blockages and give your energy a new direction.
Lomi Lomi has beautiful, long, fluent, flowing movements over the full length of your body with soft, but effective massage strokes. We use high-quality, organic jojoba oil to nourish the skin. If you feel stressed, have trouble connecting with yourself, feel sad or the need to take some you time, Lomi Lomi is the ‘embrace’ your body just might need.
Sports massage
Reviving the muscles by releasing tension
Our sports massage in Amsterdam is a reviving and firm massage targeted to improve blood circulation of the muscles and aid in dissolving bodily waste products more easily. It also improves the recovery of the muscles and prevents injuries from happening.
This type of massage is well suited for active people, especially if the muscles experience a lot of stress and have been overburdened.
Questions about our treatments?
If you’re wondering what to expect, how we work, or which therapy is right for you, we’ve got you covered. If you need more details, check out our full FAQ page.
Which type of massage is right for me?
The right massage depends on your needs. If you’re looking for relaxation and stress relief, a Rebalance massage might be best. For muscle tension or pain relief, deep tissue or sports massage may be more suitable. If you have deeper issues, injuries, or chronic pain, we recommend booking with an Elite or Master therapist for specialized care. If you’re unsure, our therapists can recommend the right treatment based on your goals.
What is a Rebalance massage?
A Rebalance massage is our signature treatment, designed to restore harmony between body and mind. It combines deep tissue techniques, myofascial release, and intuitive touch to relieve tension, improve mobility, and support emotional well-being.
What is a deep tissue massage?
A deep tissue massage targets deeper layers of muscle and fascia to release chronic tension, break down adhesions, and improve mobility. It’s ideal for those with persistent pain, muscle tightness, or recovery from injuries. While it can be intense, our therapists adjust pressure to your comfort level.
When should I get a sports massage?
A sports massage is beneficial before or after physical activity, helping to prevent injuries, improve performance, and speed up recovery. It’s also useful for treating existing sports-related injuries or chronic muscular imbalances.
What does 'holistic' mean in massage therapy?
Holistic massage focuses on treating the whole person—body, mind, and spirit—rather than just physical symptoms. It combines technical massage techniques with mindfulness, breathwork, and energy balancing to support overall well-being.
Should I talk about past trauma or emotional stress with my therapist?
If you feel comfortable, sharing past trauma, stress, or emotional challenges with your therapist can help deepen your healing experience. Our bodies store emotions in physical tension, and releasing that tension can sometimes bring emotions to the surface.
While massage therapists are not psychotherapists, we hold space for your healing and can adjust our approach to support your process. If you prefer privacy, you can always ask to speak with your therapist directly in the treatment room before your session begins. There’s no pressure to share, but openness can enhance the benefits of your massage.
Can I exercise after a massage?
We generally recommend waiting 24 hours before intense exercise, especially after deep tissue or sports massage, as your muscles need time to recover. Light movement, like walking or stretching, is fine and can help maintain the benefits.
How often should I book a massage?
The frequency of massage depends on your goals. For general wellness, once a month is ideal. If you’re dealing with chronic pain, stress, or recovery from an injury, weekly or biweekly sessions may be more beneficial. Your therapist can create a personalized plan for you.
What should I expect during my first massage?
Your therapist will discuss your needs, concerns, and any medical conditions before beginning the session. You’ll be guided on how to lie on the massage table and draped for privacy. The treatment will be adjusted to your comfort level, and you’re encouraged to communicate any preferences.

EXCELLENT Based on 125 reviews Enrique Alcántara2025-04-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been going regularly to this massage center, and I’ve had a very satisfying experience. The therapists in this center are very professional and knowledgeable. They have a deep knowledge of human anatomy, and they’ve helped me to work on healing my shoulder pain over the last two months with a combination of recovery exercises and deep tissue massages. The center is clean and comfortable. Highly recommended. Robert2025-03-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a profound experience with Joel, I was comfortable from the moment he greeted me at the door, he was spot on with his strength and the knowledge of the body. Could not recommend less, one of the best if not the best massage experience I had. Suk Yang Wong2025-03-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Rebalance and Joël in particular are an essential part of my recovery. From the very first session, Joël understood my body and my work out regime. I see him every two weeks - sometimes even more - and next to great stretches and massages, he will give me some homework. He is also very supportive of strong women. Thank you Joël!

Sander heeft niet alleen veel aandacht voor het lichaam, maar ook voor de mens erachter. Hij gaat open het gesprek aan over je gedrag en denkt mee/geeft tips om meer innerlijke rust te ervaren in jouw dagdagelijkse leven. Roman Siepelmeyer2025-03-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Helena is absolutely the best in the business. I’ve never felt so at ease and welcomed anywhere in any establishment. She was incredibly attuned to the energy I needed, was very sensitive to pressure points and had great timing overall. It felt like she deconstructed each body part piece by piece, then put it back together and reconnected all of the parts into one whole and energised organism. Incredible stress relief, 5/5 already booked my next appointment 🙏 Rebecca Schroder2025-03-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Love this place.
