When looking for a massage in Baia Mare or nearby, you will find plenty of options: relaxation massage, Deep Tissue, Ayurvedic massage, Hot Stone or couples massage. But how do you choose the experience that suits you?

At Luna Day, in our salons in Tăuții-Măgherăuș, near Baia Mare, and Târgu Lăpuș, Maramureș, we help you choose based on what you would like, your body’s sensitivity and the time you want to set aside for yourself. We begin with a simple question: how would you like to feel after your time with us?

Perhaps your back and shoulders feel tense after long hours at a desk. Perhaps you would like a full-body massage with oil and rhythmic movements. Or perhaps you need a gentle touch, warmth and a break where no one rushes you. This is where the choice begins.

What Matters When Choosing a Massage?

The name of a technique is only a starting point. Before booking, consider a few things:

• Are you mainly looking for relaxation, or would you like extra attention for tense muscles?
• Do you prefer gentle, moderate or deeper pressure?
• Would you like a full-body massage or attention to specific areas?
• How much time can you set aside for this experience?

Please also let us know about any sensitivities, health conditions or relevant medical advice. This information helps us discuss which massage to choose and how to adapt the session. You do not need to know every technique before visiting us. Simply tell us what you would like and what kind of touch feels comfortable for you.

Ayurvedic Massage for a Complete Experience

Ayurvedic massage is one of the options we frequently recommend to people visiting Luna Day for the first time who are unsure what to choose. It is a full-body massage performed with oil, using rhythmic sequences, broad movements, gliding strokes and specific pressure techniques.

In our approach, it can suit people who want a substantial massage experience without necessarily seeking the deeper muscle work associated with Deep Tissue. The intensity is discussed and adapted to each person. We often recommend Ayurvedic massage to those who tell us: “There isn’t just one area I want to focus on. I would like a complete massage and some time for myself.”

Ayurveda is an important part of Luna Day’s identity. If you are curious to discover it, we will explain what the session involves and explore together whether it suits your preferences.

Deep Tissue Massage for Tense Muscles

If you spend long hours at a desk, drive, do physical work or play sports, you may want extra attention for your back, shoulders or legs. Deep Tissue massage involves slower, more focused muscle work, with pressure adapted to each person and the areas being treated.

At Luna Day, we follow an essential principle: Deep Tissue does not have to hurt. Pressure increases gradually, and communication with your therapist is part of the session. Let us know if a movement feels too intense or if you would like us to reduce the pressure. You do not need to endure pain for a massage to be effective.

Choosing this technique depends on your preferences, health and any contraindications, rather than simply wanting a “stronger” massage. For a more detailed comparison, read our article: Relaxation Massage vs. Deep Tissue: Which Should You Choose?

Relaxation Massage When You Prefer a Gentle Touch

In relaxation massage, comfort and unwinding are the main goals. Movements are fluid and rhythmic, while pressure remains light or moderate. It may be the right choice if you prefer a delicate touch, dislike deep pressure or simply want a peaceful break.

At Luna Day, we respect the nature of this technique. If you choose a relaxation massage, we will not turn the session into a Deep Tissue massage without discussing it with you.

We offer dedicated massages for children and pregnant women: pregnancy relaxation massage, massage for children aged 1–7 and massage for children aged 8–12. You can find details about each on our Full-Body Massages page.

Hot Stone Massage for Those Who Enjoy Warmth

Hot Stone massage combines massage movements with the warmth of heated volcanic stones. At Luna Day, the stones are actively used during the massage. Your therapist holds them while working, incorporating them into the movements of the session.

If you enjoy warmth and are looking for an experience that differs from a manual oil massage, Hot Stone massage may be one of the options we discuss. Both the temperature and the intensity should remain comfortable for you.

Thai Massage for a Different Experience

Thai massage has a different approach and rhythm from the oil massages described above. If this technique appeals to you, let us know when booking. We will explain how the session is performed at Luna Day and discuss whether it suits your preferences and any movement limitations you may have.

There is no single technique that everyone has to prefer. What matters is understanding the experience you choose and feeling comfortable throughout it.

Sometimes, the Right Choice Is a Combination

Perhaps you would like a full-body massage, along with extra time for your back, legs, feet or scalp. This is precisely why we created Luna Day Body Synergies: combinations of massages and therapies that give you more options based on your needs and the time you want to set aside for yourself.

Explore our Body Synergies or tell us what you would like, and we will help you choose the right combination for you.

Couples Massage at Luna Day

A couples massage means spending time together in the same room, with each person having their own therapist. You can come with your partner, a friend, your mother or another loved one with whom you would like to share the experience.

You do not have to choose the same intensity. One person may prefer a gentle touch, while the other enjoys a deeper massage. Sessions take place simultaneously, with adjustments for each person.

When booking, select 2 people and mention that you would like your massages in the same room so we can check availability.
