classic comfort and soothing strokes
The original massage.
In Sweden, this is known simply as a 'classic massage'; and that's exactly what it is - a classic treatment involving five main techniques - stroking & gliding, kneading, rubbing, tapping or "pounding", and vibration – that take into account the bonier and more delicate parts of the body where softer strokes are used, and areas of thicker muscle where stronger strokes are applied. This sensitivity to the different needs of your body make it ideal for relaxation.
Swedish Massage is designed to improve your circulation (by increasing oxygen flow in the blood), soothe your muscles and make you more relaxed. Alongside these calming benefits, it can also ease muscular strain by flushing out toxins, help to keep joint flexible (ligaments & tendons supple), stimulate the nervous system, improve muscle tone and reduce emotional & physical stress.
Bring you to bliss: Your massage therapist will guide you to a state of relaxation by blending light and deep strokes of varying depth and pressure to enhance your body's natural functioning. Long gliding strokes, gentle kneading, and active/passive movements of the muscles work to reduce tension, alleviate muscle soreness, and improve your overall energy. Your therapist will help you to select the correct aromatic essential oil blend to help balance your specific mind/body needs.
