Swedish massage:

  • Swedish Massage is traditionally described as the manipulation of soft tissue for therapeutic purposes. Swedish Massage as we know it today, was developed in the early nineteenth century by Henreich Ling (1776-1839) - a Swede. Ling developed a scientific system of massage and movements based on physiology
  • The movements used in Swedish massage affect the muscles, blood vessels, lymphatics, nerves, some internal organs and of course the skin. It can have both an invigorating and soothing effect and it is for this reason that Swedish massage is often recommended for relaxation
  • An initial Swedish massage treatment allows the therapist to assess your needs. The therapist will then be able to tailor suit the full body massage session, concentrating on specific areas according to each client's needs
