Relaxation (Swedish) Massage
Relaxation (Swedish) massage is the most commonly offered and best known type available. If you are new to this therapy the relaxation massage is the perfect place to begin.
During this type of massage, long, slow gliding strokes are used in order to release muscular tension and relax the nervous system. It uses firm but even pressure to promote and ease muscle tension and create other health benefits.
Relaxation massage is designed to soothe the nervous system, lower blood pressure, improve circulation, aiding sleep, flush metabolic waste, stimulate the skin and induce the Relaxation Response. A highlight of relaxation massage is that attention is given to areas such as feet, head, hands, and face.
An excellent massage when feeling stressed, tired or anxious. Results are best when you keep talking to a minimum and allow yourself to completely relax and let go. Relaxation massage will improve oxytocin levels and this hormone makes you feel happy and trusting towards others.
