What is Relaxation Massage aka Swedish Massage?

A relaxation massage is the same as our Swedish massage. The purpose of a relaxation massage is to calm the nervous system, promote a sense of well-being, improve circulation and range of movement and to relieve minor muscle pain. It is not designed to work the deeper muscles of the body. A relaxation massage is primarily focused on gentle kneading and rubbing of the outer layers of muscle and skin.

Your Experience During a Relaxation Massage:

Many people fall asleep during a relaxation or Swedish massage. Swedish massage techniques involve repetitive movements that feel hypnotic and relaxing. It is a soothing massage without a lot of surprises – perfect for falling asleep.

Why You May Want to Experience a Relaxation Massage:

You may want to choose a relaxing massage if you love that sensation of having your muscles milked, squeezed and kneaded like dough. Swedish massage is the base of all western massage training. If you don’t like deep pressure and stretching, try our relaxation massage.
