About Swedish massage.

Swedish Massage gets it name from Per Henrik Ling, a Swede who, in the 1800s looked at Eastern and Western massage traditions and developed his own scientific system of massage movements which forms the basis of many massage techniques today.

This Swedish Massage system includes long smooth strokes (effleurage), kneading (petrissage) and friction and tapping (tapotement) all of which work to promote relaxation, ease tired and aching muscles and encourage the flow of blood and lymph.

How it can benefit you?

It is ideal for specific physical problems such as muscle tension and can be used to relax muscles after physical exertion or to warm and loosen them in preparation for exercise. Massage is also a great mental and emotional stress reliever. A treatment leaves clients feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.

As with all Complementary Therapies, an initial consultation is carried out before the first treatment. The client’s modesty is protected at all times by towels and a blanket if required.

If you have a medical condition you may have to consult your GP before undertaking a treatment. Please ask for further information.

Each appointment allows time to review your last treatment, your needs for the present treatment and time to relax at the end. Our aim is to provide you with an ‘oasis’ in which to unwind and escape the pressures of day to day living, whilst giving restorative care to your body.
