What is A Swedish Massage?

Swedish massage therapy is a classic form of massage, using a variety of techniques such as kneading, light-medium pressure and flowing movements specifically designed to warm up the muscles and promote deep relaxation. Swedish massage not only relaxes the body but also increases the oxygen and lymph circulation throughout the body. Swedish massage is relaxing yet uplifting whilst at the same time promoting health and well-being.

What to Expect During your Swedish Massage?

At our salon in Watford the primary goals of Swedish massage therapy are to ease muscle tension and allow the entire body to fall into a state of relaxation. But Swedish massage goes beyond relaxation, it can be exceptionally beneficial by increasing the level of oxygen and lymph (white blood cells) in the blood, also improve circulation, whist decreasing toxins within the muscles and improving flexibility. During your treatment great care is always taken to make sure the right amount of pressure is tailored to your requirements and/or needs, and that you are as comfortable and relaxed as possible throughout.
