Service Description

Swedish massage is a specific type of massage therapy that focuses on relaxation. The technique is carried out by a massage therapist who targets muscles through a series of techniques that include friction, gliding, strokes, and kneading. Swedish massage is also known as classical massage and is one of the most popular types of massage therapies throughout the world. Many other types of massage therapy have branched from this particular technique. As you have probably guessed, this practice has its origins in Sweden. It was developed by a Swedish physician and athlete who merged Chinese medical massage techniques and sports medicine and came up with a unique treatment to address sore muscles, increase flexibility and improve overall health. Swedish massage techniques usually involve the use of oil or cream as a lubricant. Stretching is also part of the technique and helps elongate muscles.Swedish Massage Techniques such as effleurage, petrissage and tapotement warm up the muscle tissue, release tension, and gradually break up muscle adhesions. Before the treatment, your therapist will ask you about any injuries or conditions that they should be aware of. You will fill out a brief medical history intake form prior to your massage, but your therapist will leave time to discuss any goals you may have for the session as well.
