Swedish Massage

Probably the most well-known and most widely used treatment in massage therapy. Swedish massage feels good, is relaxing yet invigorating. It affects the nerves, muscles, glands, and circulation, while promoting health and well being. The main purpose of Swedish massage is to increase the oxygen flow in the blood and release toxins from the muscles.



Deep Tissue Massage

Deep Tissue massage aims at the deeper tissue structures of the muscle and fascia, also called connective tissue. Deep Tissue Massage uses many of the same movements and techniques as Swedish Massage, but also includes more focused work as the therapist works to release chronic muscle tensions.
