What is a Swedish Massage?

The term “Swedish Massage’ refers to a variety of techniques specifically designed to relax muscles by applying pressure. The main purpose of Swedish massage is to increase the oxygen flow in the blood and release toxins from the muscles.

This is the classic, basic massage and techniques include: long strokes, kneading, friction, tapping, percussion, vibration, effleurage, and shaking motions. Swedish massage feels good, is relaxing and invigorating and promotes health. Swedish massage is good for mental, physical, and spiritual well being.

Hot Stone Massage

Hot stone massage is a specialty massage that uses smooth, heated stones. They are often basalt, a black volcanic rock that absorbs and retains heat well, but they can be other types. The heat is both deeply relaxing and helps tight muscles release.

This unique massage combines Swedish techniques with the use of hot, oiled stones. The body is gently massaged with the hot stones allowing the heat to penetrate deep into the muscles for a therapeutic effect and for deep relaxation. It will help massage away tension.
