swedish massageA system of treatment using oil. Relaxes the body and stimulates circulation

 
   

Swedish massage - became popular in the west during the 19th century through the influence of the Swede, Pir Henrik Ling. It is one of the most commonly taught and well-known massage techniques.
Swedish massage is a system of treatment, designed to energise the body by stimulating circulation. Five basic strokes, all flowing toward the heart, are used to manipulate the soft tissues of the body. Therapists use a combination of kneading, rolling, vibrational, percussive and tapping movements, with the application of oil, to reduce friction on the skin. The many benefits of Swedish massage may include relaxation, breakdown of scar tissue adhesions and improved circulation, which may speed healing and reduce swelling from injury. Swedish massage traditionally takes place on a massage couch.
