What is a Swedish massage?
The Swedish massage uses five core techniques (effleurage, petrissage, tapotement, friction and vibration) to work through muscle tension from surface level down. It's the foundation of Western massage therapy and what most people picture when they think of a professional massage. At The Spa we call it a classic massage for a reason: the technique doesn't change, but every session is different because every body is different.
Benefits of a Swedish massage
