Sweedish Massage

Swedish massage therapy is the most well-known and widely practiced type of therapeutic massage. This type of massage focuses on muscle relaxation, targeting superficial muscles (rather than the connective tissues targeted in deep-tissue massage) and increasing blood circulation. Swedish massage is a light relaxing massage to help get the blood to flow and destress, while deep tissue is medium-deep pressure used to work the knots and aches out of the muscles. Many ask which is best for them, and the answer all depends on if you are coming to relax and destress (Swedish) or if you are coming to get rid of achy muscles and knots (deep tissue).
