Swedish Massage
Swedish massage comes from the same source as classic massage - from Swedish doctor Henrik Ling. For this reason it has much in common with classical massage. Ling had a great influence on the development of modern European massage in the nineteenth and early twentieth century. When this type of massage came to the United States it has changed and developed further. Now the difference is that the Swedish massage is moe pleasant than the classical massage and is performed by slow, flowing movements allowing to massage back and whole body thoroughly. Swedish massage is one of the most popular massages in North America and Western Europe.
What can you expect during the procedure?
At the beginning of the massage the client is asked to complete a short questionnaire about his/her preferences. Then the massage recepient goes to massage room filled with slow quiet music and lit by scented candles. Right from the start you can feel a note of relaxation and harmony. The massage takes place on a comfortable professional massage table. Swedish massage is performed in a personalized way, according to customer needs and preferences. Before the massage masseur asks how strong the client prefers the massage and to which parts of the body he/she would like special attention to be given. The massaged person undresses and lies down on the massage table. During the procedure, only the massaged part of the body is exposed - the rest is covered by a towel. The masseur uses a variety of oils, which, are wiped with a paper towel after the massage. Essential oils make the customer indulge in the oriental world and thus relaxation effect becomes even greater. After the procedure masseur offers a cup of herbal tea, asks the customer about the massage, asks for comments and suggestions.
Swedish massage is aimed mainly at people who are tired, feeling the muscle pain, but also for people who want to relax, reviwe your body and keep fit.
