Hours in Lagos traffic and long days at a desk keep your shoulders raised, your head forward and your back in one position. Over time, the muscles tighten and ache.
Common signs of muscle tension
- Tight, sore neck and shoulders by the end of the day
- A stiff lower back after sitting
- Tension headaches that start at the base of the skull
- Trouble relaxing, even when you finally get home
How massage can help
Massage can help ease muscle tension, support relaxation and leave you feeling looser. Many people choose a firmer technique for tight shoulders and back, or a gentler one when stress is the main issue. Our guide to Swedish vs deep tissue massage explains the options.
Simple habits between sessions
- Stand up and move for a minute or two every hour you are at a desk.
- Roll your shoulders back and gently stretch your neck from side to side.
- Adjust your screen to eye level and support your lower back in the car and at work.
- Drink water through the day.
Skip the commute
Getting to a spa through Lagos traffic can undo the relaxation before you start. A massage at home in Lekki removes the journey, so you can relax in your own space and go straight to rest afterwards.
