Swedish Massage techniques are designed to help you relax, give you more energy, and increase mental clarity.
Swedish massage involves long, kneading strokes combined with rhythmic tapping strokes and movement of the joints. This type of massage targets the outermost layers of muscles and aims to relieve muscle tension.
I highly encourage upping your hydration intake post massage to aid in flushing out toxins and increasing muscle tissue health.
Deep tissue massage offers both physical and psychological benefits. It can relieve muscle pain and stiffness and provide stress-relieving relaxation for the body and mind.
Deep tissue massage involves applying consistent steady pressure using slow, deep strokes designed to target the deeper layers of your muscles for long lasting muscle pain relief.
It may also promote faster healing by increasing blood flow and reducing inflammation.
I highly encourage open communication during the session to ensure this modality isnt causing discomfort. Due to the nature of the deep tissue work soreness can exist after the treatment. Please be sure to drink plenty of water after receiving your massage to aid with the flushing and removal of toxins that will have been released from the deep tissue during the session.
