What
is Swedish Massage Therapy?
Massage therapy, also known as Swedish massage, is the most common
form of massage therapy in the United States.
Massage therapists use long, smooth strokes, kneading and other
movements focused on superficial layers of muscle using massage
oil or lotion.
How Does Massage Therapy Work?
Massage therapy improves circulation by bringing oxygen and other
nutrients to body tissues.
It relieves muscle tension and pain, increases flexibility and
mobility, and helps clear lactic acid and other waste, which reduces
pain and stiffness in muscles and joints. <back |
