Swedish massage is a unique combination of techniques, elements and forms of massage of the ancient Greeks, Romans and Chinese.
What is Swedish massage
This massage is a powerful therapeutic tool that leads to complete relaxation, relaxation, relieving muscle tension, and eliminating the effects of stress and depression.
Unlike classic massage, in which the sequence is reversed (thigh, lower leg, foot; shoulder, forearm, hand), Swedish massage does not have a suction effect.
The Swedish massage system differs from other systems in that, in addition to massage techniques, it uses Swedish gymnastics.
Swedish massage technique
For massage, simple classical techniques are used: stroking, vibration, effleurage, blows, friction.
During the procedure, the main emphasis is on rubbing and stretching.
Up to half of the total time is allocated for rubbing, and up to 40% for stretching.
The massage therapist applies a combination of firm and light strokes to the muscles to relax the muscle tissue and increase blood flow to the heart.
What are the benefits of Swedish massage
The effect of the massage is aimed at joints and stretching muscle and nervous tissue.
Possessing a powerful sedative effect, this type of massage is especially useful for people who have undergone surgery or severe stress.
