Swedish
What is a Swedish massage?
Swedish massage involves long, kneading strokes, combined with rhythmic tapping strokes and movement of the joints. A client can expect light to medium pressure as this modality is meant to be relaxing and calming and aims to target more superficial muscles and relieve muscle tension.
Swedish massage uses a combination of 4 different techniques:
-
Effleurage- smooth, gliding strokes. This helps relax soft, superficial tissues
-
Petrissage- Squeezing, rolling, or kneading.
-
Friction- firm side to side or circular movements. This helps to increase blood flow to the area and can help break down scar tissue.
-
Tapotement- tapping with cupped hands, fingers or with the edge of hand
