Swedish massage (Full body massage/Back massage)
Swedish massage is the most common and most popular type of massage in the West. If it’s your first time or you don’t get massage often, Swedish massage is the best place to start. It is the foundation for other types of Western massage, including sports massage, deep tissue massage and aromatherapy massage.
It is the combination of many different techniques rolled into one session. During this therapy session the therapist will work with the soft tissues and muscles in the body to help restore balance and health.
A Swedish body massage is brilliant at combating stress and chronic pain. It relaxes the mind and body and your circulation and lymph system are boosted, too. By relieving muscle tension, Swedish massage therapy can be both relaxing and energizing.
You can choose to have a full body massage or just an area done. Back massage, neck and shoulders massage are popular as these get particularly tight from being at a computer all day. The pressure can be as light or firm as you like.
