The main goal of Swedish massage is to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and improve circulation. It involves the use of long strokes, kneading, friction, and circular movements on the topmost layers of muscles, typically using oil or lotion to facilitate smooth gliding and reduce friction.
The massage therapist will use their hands, forearms, or elbows to apply pressure to the muscles and joints, working systematically through the body's major muscle groups. The pressure applied can vary from light to moderate, depending on the client's preference and sensitivity. Swedish massage also incorporates techniques such as stretching, bending, and passive joint movements to enhance the overall relaxation and release of tension.
Swedish massage can benefit a wide range of individuals, including those experiencing stress, anxiety, or depression, as well as those with chronic pain or injuries. It can also be beneficial for improving flexibility, reducing muscle soreness, and improving overall well-being. The length of the session can vary, typically lasting between 60 and 90 minutes, and can be customized to meet the client's specific needs and preferences.
