Swedish Massage (Relaxation)
![]() Manipulation that uses a system of long gliding strokes, kneading and friction techniques on the more superficial layers of muscle, generally in the direction of blood flow toward the heart because there is an emphasis on improving blood flow to the soft tissue and sometimes combined with active and passive movement of the joints. It is used to promote general relaxation, improve circulation and range of motion, and relieve muscle tension. Massage gel or oil is used as a lubricant to provide smooth skin surfaces to work on. Moist heat packs are sometimes used to warm and relax the muscles. One of the important principles of Swedish Massage is that circulation and flexibility are the keys to good health. The proper use of massage can eliminate blockages and increase the circulation of blood and lymph. It also increases the mobility and range of motion of the joints and the power and balanced action of the muscles. ![]() |
