Product Description
Swedish Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. Oil or lotion may be used in order to facilitate the application of a variety of strokes such as effleurage, petrissage, and tapotement. The difference between a Swedish massage and a “rub down” is the knowledge that the massage therapist acquired during extensive supervised training.
The Massage Therapist, among other things, knows the origins and insertions of muscles, directions of the muscle fibers, and recognizes the location of bone structures, tendons, and ligaments. Even though the client may not be aware of this during the massage, by analyzing the information the client provides during the intake, and by assessing the muscles during the massage, the massage therapist is able to strategize the best way to help the client with aches and pains and maximize relaxation time. Some of the benefits of Swedish massage include: relief from aches and pains, promote better circulation, improve the flow of the lymphatic system, and help to decrease stress. Swedish massage is done unclothed and draped with linen or towel.
Swedish massage helps circulate blood flow, reduces mental stress, and reduce muscle pain and tension.
