Massage is personal. Too light and it was a nap you paid for, too deep and you are sore for two days. The only way to know is to hear from people who booked it.
These reviews describe their experience, the pressure they got and the results, which is exactly what to tell us when you book so you get the same.

“Don was terrific, his attentiveness to how much pressure to apply was great! It was so relaxing with tips going forward for my toes, ITB bands and overall stretching. He is a delight!
The front desk gal was friendly and caring, giving water or sangria( if wanted). . a lovely experience! ! ”

“I have found my happy place in Tampa! Since moving here, I have been searching for my spot to get away, decompress, and recharge. From the moment I walked through the door, I was transported to a space where relaxation, friendliness, and "me time" is priority. My facial included a massage that was TO DIE FOR and my skin has never looked better! I wanted to take Don, the massage therapist, home with me. His friendly nature and attentiveness to what I was hoping for in a massage was second to none. Do yourself a favor and head over to Pia Spa you will be so thankful you did! ”
“I have never had a facial or a massage before. My mom purchased this experience for me as a gift before my wedding. I will probably never be the same person again. I was so relaxed after my facial that I had to sit in my car to make sure I was fully awake before driving. My aesthetician was incredibly soothing and informative and helpful with my skin care concerns. I will recommend this spa to everyone I know. ”
“I have been coming to Pia for several months now and I always have a great experience. They really make you feel comfortable and the service is supreme. My wax and massage are the best! ”

“The Massage Therapist was great this is the second time l have had him. He explained the whole process. I enjoyed the massage l felt so relaxed.

“Just love Pia! It’s always a treat for myself when I go. The warm greeting from Ana when I walked in made me feel welcomed and Don’s massage was perfect. I think I may have snored a little but he was gracious and didn’t let on he heard. Self care is so easy at Pia and with the wonderful team. I’m already booked for another treatment! ”

Highly recommend! ”
“Don is the most incredible masseuse! My husband and I have each seen him multiple times, have different pressure preferences, and both cannot rave enough about the experience. I recently saw Don for my first prenatal massage and had low expectations for relief. He continued to impress me and felt great throughout the experience (and beyond). He is highly professional as well, and always makes me feel comfortable ( and is something important to me as a female). Already looking forward to the next one! ”
