Service Description

During the Swedish massage, we use kneading, long strokes, deep circular movements and passive joint movements. These techniques are carried out to relax you, stimulate nerve endings and increase blood flow and lymph drainage. The Swedish massage incorporates a variety of massage techniques in order to provide and promote healing. Effleurage is used at the beginning of the massage as a warm up and at the end of the session to soothe the muscles. This technique involves gentle circular or gliding strokes. We apply different levels of pressure on the body to loosen knots. It also helps in relieving tension. There are three classes of effleurage, each based on the amount of pressure we use. These classes are feather stroking, superficial effleurage, and deeper effleurage. The degree of pressure applied depends on the needs of the individual receiving the massage. Petrissage consists of a deeper, kneading movement. We manually compress your soft tissues in a rhythmic fashion. The most common ways of performing petrissage include kneading, wringing, rolling, and lifting. Petrissage helps to stretch and loosen muscles and promote blood circulation. Performing petrissage takes the most time in a Swedish massage. It’s best for people with injured muscles since it provides many therapeutic benefits. Tapotement means tapping or drumming. The masseuse uses a rhythmic tapping to stimulate blood flow across the body. Tapotement involves actions like hammering, slapping, cupping, hacking, and tapping. Tapotement promotes the production of endorphins, which help the body to relax. This technique relaxes tight muscles and helps in lymphatic drainage. Friction involves rubbing on the massage area using the thumbs or fingers. We may apply pressure in a circular or linear rhythm, rubbing the sore area in order to soften and realign muscles. This technique works best on joints. Vibration involves rhythmic shaking of the massage area. By doing so, the body loosens up and relaxes. We may use our palms to shake your skin and muscles on your back. If the massage area is small or sensitive, like your face, we may use our fingers. Vibration works best for soothing nerves in areas with large scars or knots. Swedish massage is a great way to treat yourself—but it’s also a lot more than that. The physical and mental health benefits of a Swedish massage make it a great option for those new to massage or someone looking to a complete massage experience.
