Swedish / Deep Tissue Massage
Using Swedish massage techniques this is a gentle type of full-body massage that’s ideal for people who:
- Are new to massage
- Have a lot of tension
- Are sensitive to touch
It can help release muscle knots, and it is also a desirable choice for when you want to fully relax during a massage.
For this massage, you will remove your clothes, though you may choose to keep your underwear on. You will be covered with a sheet while lying on the massage table. The massage therapist will move the sheet to uncover areas that they are actively working on.
The massage will use a combination of:
- Kneading
- Long, flowing strokes in the direction of the heart
- Deep circular motions
- Vibration and tapping
- Passive going movement techniques
