Swedish Massage
The term “Swedish massage” refers to a variety of techniques specifically designed to relax muscles by applying pressure to them against deeper muscles and bones, and rubbing in the same direction as the flow of blood returning to the heart.
The main purpose of Swedish massage is to increase the oxygen flow in the blood and release toxins from the muscles. Swedish massage shortens recovery time from muscular strain by flushing the tissues of lactic acid, uric acid, and other metabolic wastes. It increases circulation without increasing heart load. It stretches the ligaments and tendons keeping them supple and pliable. Swedish Massage also stimulates the skin and nervous system and soothes the nerves themselves at the same time. It has a relaxing effect on the nervous system and assists in improving muscle tone.
Swedish massage is relaxing and invigorating. It assists the nerves, muscles, glands, and circulation, while promoting health and well being. It reduces stress, both emotional and physical, and is beneficial in a regular program for stress management. It also has many specific medical uses.
