Swedish Massage

Perhaps the most well-known type of massage, this soothing and relaxing technique is based on the Western concept of Anatomy and Physiology. It incorporates the traditional manipulative techniques of effleurage, petrissage, vibration, friction and tapotement, improving circulation and lymph flow. Deeper strokes can also be used to break down adhesion in muscle and connective tissue, which is common after injury and in areas of body tension.
