What is Swedish Massage

Swedish Massage Therapy is a holistic therapy that uses deep tissue and long sweeping massage techniques to promote healing and relaxation. The physical and psychological benefits are multiple but primarily it increases the oxygen flow in the blood and releases toxins from the muscles this in turn relaxes the muscles, releasing tension and increasing flexibility.

Swedish massage techniques stimulate blood and lymphatic circulation assisting the immune system by flushing the tissues of lactic acid, uric acid, and other metabolic wastes. Other possible benefits include an increase in muscle tone and a balance of the musculo-skeletal systems. Swedish massage can also shorten recovery time from muscular strain by increasing circulation without increasing heart load. The specialist techniques do all this will also providing deep relaxation and relief from stress.
