Therapeutic massage for pilgrims in Palas de Rei: recover your legs before reaching Santiago

Palas de Rei is one of the most important points of the Camino de Santiago Francés. Located approximately 90 kilometres from Santiago de Compostela, this stage marks the beginning of the final straight and is the moment when the body needs it most. Years of experience accompanying pilgrims have taught us that good recovery in Palas de Rei is decisive for arriving at the Plaza del Obradoiro in the best condition.

At Freshlegs Palas de Rei we offer treatments of therapeutic massage for pilgrims, pressotherapy and cryotherapy, the three pillars of active muscle recovery. Pressotherapy reduces swelling and improves venous and lymphatic circulation. Therapeutic massage releases contractures and muscle knots accumulated over days of walking. Cryotherapy acts on inflammation, restoring agility and reducing pain in knees, calves and soles of the feet.

If you are looking for where to get a massage in Palas de Rei or a pressotherapy centre on the Camino de Santiago, Freshlegs is your place. We work by appointment, without queues, and with a team that knows the specific demands of each stage of the Camino Francés.
