Swedish massage is the most common and best-known type of MASSAGE.. It’s the foundation for other types of massage, including SPORTS MASSAGE AND DEEP TISSUE.
IF IT IS YOUR FIRST TIME,SWEDISH MASSAGE IS PROBABLY THE BEST WAY TO START.
If you want deeper work and can tolerate more pressure to get relief from chronic muscle pain, it’s better to book a deep tissue massage, which is another form of Swedish massage. If you have pain, it will likely take a series of massages to get results.
Deep-tissue massages focus on relieving tension deep within the body’s musculature.
Deep tissue uses many of the same movements and techniques as Swedish massage, but the pressure will generally be more intense. It is also a more focused type of massage, as the therapist works to release chronic muscle tension or “knots”.
Deep tissue massage uses firm pressure and slow strokes to reach deeper layers of muscle and fascia (the connective tissue surrounding muscles). It’s used for chronic aches and pain and contracted areas such as a stiff neck and upper back, low back pain, leg muscle tightness, and sore shoulders.
At the beginning of the massage, lighter pressure is generally applied to warm up and prep the muscles. Specific techniques are then applied. The most common techniques include:
Stripping – deep, gliding pressure along the length of the muscle fibers using the elbow, forearm, knuckles, and thumbs
Friction – pressure applied across the grain of a muscle to release adhesions and realign tissue fibers
These techniques require advanced training and a thorough understanding of anatomy and physiology. The muscles must be relaxed in order to effectively perform deep tissue massage, otherwise tight surface muscles prevent the practitioner from reaching deeper musculature.
Deep tissue massage helps with chronic muscular pain and injury rehabilitation and reduces inflammation-related pain caused by arthritis and tendinitis and it is used to treat particular muscular disorders. Benefits include a regulation in the circulatory function of the body, increased energy level, stimulation of the lymphatic flow, which helps eliminate toxins, increased muscle tone and a restored sense of calm and wellbeing.
The session can be combinated with other types of massage like massage for Couples or 4 hands massage.
