What is a Swedish Massage?

A Swedish Massage is a type of massage using a variety of techniques specifically designed to relax muscles by applying pressure to them and rubbing in the same direction as the flow of blood returning to the heart.

How does it work?

A Swedish Massage increases oxygen flow in the blood, releases toxins from the muscles and shortens recovery time from muscular strain by flushing the tissues of lactic acid and metabolic wastes. It increases circulation and stretches ligaments and tendons, keeping them supple and pliable. A Swedish Massage also stimulates the skin and nervous system and soothes the nerves at the same time. All this is accomplished by using several different techniques of hand massage. 

What can a Swedish Massage treat?

A Swedish Massage can provide relief from muscular aches, pains, sprains, poor circulation, rheumatic and arthritic conditions and back pain.
