What is a 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.
Swedish massage was developed in the 1700's by a Swedish doctor named Per Henrik Ling.
Purpose of Swedish Massage?
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 reduces stress, both emotional and physical, and is suggested in a regular
program for stress management. It also has many specific medical uses.

Benefits of Swedish Massage?
Swedish massage feels good, is relaxing and invigorating. It affects the nerves, muscles,
glands, and circulation, while promoting health and well being.
Oil is usually used, first warmed in the therapist's hands, which facilitates the stroking and
kneading of the body, thereby stimulating metabolism and circulation. Its active and passive
movements of the joints promote general relaxation, improve circulation and range of
motion, and relieve muscle tension. Swedish massage is often given as a complete, full body
technique where all the major muscle groups are covered, though sometimes only a part of
the body is worked on.
