Swedish Massage Oil massage that combines different levels of pressure with long sweeping strokes, tapotement, stretching and pulling with the aim of deep relaxation. Ideal for reducing the symptoms of stress and anxiety.
Swedish massage can be adapted to encourage particular mood states; energising the body or creating a safe and steady holding space that stills the mind and allows the muscles to relax.
By targeting areas of discomfort directly, massage techniques are applied to ease pain. Deep tissue techniques, where firm pressure is applied using palms, forearms and elbows, can be incorporated into Swedish Massage, to tackle stubborn knots.
