Swedish Massage use gentle but firm pressure to improve circulation, ease muscle soreness and tension, and improve flexibility.
Classic massage strokes include gliding, kneading, friction and vibration. These techniques are used on the more superficial layers of muscles, and when combined with passive joint movements and stretching create soothing relaxation. Benefits include stress reduction in body and mind, improved lymph movement, reduced blood pressure, healthier skin and easier breathing. |
Deep Tissue Massage releases chronic muscle tension, adhesions, and trigger points through slower strokes and more direct pressure or friction applied across the muscle fibers. The therapist can detect areas of pain by determining the quality and texture of the musculature and then slowly working into the deep layers of muscle tissue. Specific techniques using fist, fingers, thumbs or elbows are used to respond to various tissue qualities. Benefits include improved range of motion and posture, and stress and pain relief.

Myofascial Massage uses long, sustained stretching strokes and movements that seek to rebalance the body by releasing tension in the fascia/connective tissue. Myofascial massage uses manual techniques, usually with little or no lubricant, for releasing bonds between fascia and muscles with the intention of eliminating pain and increasing range of motion.
