The Best Massage Options for People Who Sit All Day
If your body’s been quietly protesting your 9-to-5 routine—tight hips, stiff lower back, shoulders slowly creeping up to your ears—you’re in good company. Most of us spend more time in chairs than we’d like to admit. And yeah, our bodies notice.
That’s where a consistent massage routine comes in. Not as a one-time fix, but as a small, repeatable way to hit reset.
At Aescape, we’ve made that easy to stick to. You stay fully clothed in soft, comfy Aescape apparel. You’re in control of the session from start to finish. And the whole experience is designed to fit into your life without any of the awkwardness or scheduling drama. Here’s a quick look at how it works.
What sitting all day actually does to your body
Let’s keep this simple: the more you sit, the more your body locks into that shape. Tight hips. Stiff glutes. A low back that feels weirdly crunchy by 3pm. According to Harvard Health, long hours of sitting can reduce mobility and affect posture—even if you’re working out regularly.
That’s why breaking up the pattern matters. Massage can support movement, ease built-up tension, and make your body feel like itself again. The key is making it part of your weekly or monthly rhythm—not just something you book after you’ve hit a wall.
Our go-to sessions for deskbound bodies
Here’s where to start:
-
30 min Full Back & Glutes Relief – Perfect for a midweek release. It targets the areas that get the most locked up when you’re in your chair all day. Quick, effective, and easy to fit in.
-
45 min Full Back, Glutes & Hamstrings Extended Focus – When you need a bit more time to stretch it out and settle in. A great option for those days when your posture has fully given up.
