What is Swedish Massage?

Swedish massage is a European-rooted style that forms the basis of many massage schools today. It combines long flowing strokes, kneading, friction and light tapping. It is usually applied with oil and medium pressure. The U.S. National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) describes Swedish-style (classic) massage as the most common form in Western countries and the core of most training programs. The aim is to loosen the muscles and give a general sense of relaxation. It overlaps largely with classic massage; the naming can vary between therapists. During the session you are covered by a sheet and the therapist uncovers only the area being worked. Pressure is usually light to medium and can be changed at any moment.

Typical Session Length

Sessions usually last 50 to 60 minutes; longer full-body options are also available. The length is listed on the profile.

Who is it suitable for?

It suits people who want both physical and mental relaxation, those new to massage, and those who prefer soft to medium pressure.

Who should avoid it, and what to watch for

If you suspect a blood clot in the leg, take blood thinners, have a fever, an open wound or recent surgery, talk to your doctor. If you are pregnant, look for a massage suited to pregnancy.

What happens in a session?

The therapist applies oil and works the back, shoulders, neck, arms and legs in turn. First the area is warmed with long flowing strokes, then kneading and light pressure follow. You can ask for more or less pressure at any time.
