SWEDISH MASSAGE

Why Should I Choose Swedish Massage?

• I have muscle aches and pain

• I want to relax

• I need therapeutic touch

• I want to boost my circulation and oxytocin levels

Swedish massage is calming and de-stressing, restores normal tone and circulation to stuck, contracted or over-stretched tissues, and eases nerve impingements and myofascial adhesions – resulting in less pain and more freedom of movement.

Usually performed on bare skin with the client unclothed or wearing underpants and always covered by modest draping. Client may wear loose clothing if desired.

Back pain, plantar fasciitis, TMJ Syndrome, sciatica, frozen shoulder, tension headaches and fibromyalgia, to name a few, are very effectively treated with Swedish massage.

Pressure may range from light, long strokes to very firm and targeted work, depending on the client's preferences and the conditions addressed. A variety of techniques may be used to optimize each client's session: gentle relaxation massage, deep tissue, trigger point, sports massage, or myofascial release.

Swedish massage is a good choice for postpartum mothers after fully recovering from birth.

Testimonial from a Swedish massage client:

"Megan gave me the best massage my sensitive dancer-body could ask for. She found all the tight spots and was able to release them. I left feeling happy, relaxed and refreshed. I highly recommend her massages."
