Swedish is the most well known and popular type of massage therapy.
We’re going beyond thrusting you into unparalleled tranquillity. Armed with hot towels, aromatherapy, and bucket-loads of game-changing techniques, we’re helping you escape your never-ending to-do list. Energizing the body, promoting muscle repair, managing pain, and reducing stress, we’re giving you the ultimate excuse to treat yourself.
WHAT IS A SWEDISH MASSAGE?
It’s the massage technique bridging the gap between you and a world of relaxation. Blending long, slow-paced strokes with quick-fire kneading, and high-speed percussion therapy with intense vibrations, this massage offers the best of both, balancing complete serenity with lasting results. While it may be the most popular massage technique across the globe, there’s nothing run-of-the-mill about this service. See for yourself.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF SWEDISH MASSAGES?
Where should we start? Put simply, this massage is championed for unlocking six key benefits: pain relief, enhanced circulation, injury support, improved mobility, stress relief, and healthy immunity.
A winning blend of slow strokes and rhythmic tapping are used to drive that all-important circulation, delivering oxygen-rich blood to the muscles to promote faster healing, while reducing blood pressure, tightness, toxins, and muscle discomfort. And it’s not just enhanced circulation that plays a role in injury recovery. By manipulating the muscles, stimulating nerves, and easing tension, you’ll see an instant reduction in inflammation, helping you get back to doing what you do best.
When you step through our (oh-so-lovely) doors, we don’t settle on merely offering an hour of relaxation. Easing the nervous system and decreasing cortisol levels, Swedish massages can unlock long-lasting impacts on the mind, body, and soul. The outcome? A reduction in depression and anxiety symptoms alleviated tension headaches and a revitalized immune system. As your daily stresses drift away, your body’s lymphocytes will increase, helping you fight off those dreaded antigens.
SWEDISH MASSAGE THERAPY ON HEAD
While head massages may be synonymous with can’t-get-enough relaxation, to us, ‘wellbeing’ isn’t just a buzzword – it’s in our DNA. Using a combination of circulation-enhancing techniques, this service is designed to ease migraines, reduce neck tension, and encourage hair growth by sending blood flow to the hair follicles.
SWEDISH MASSAGE THERAPY ON HAND
It doesn’t just feel great. Reducing pain, enhancing strength, and improving wrist flexibility, hand massages get the ‘thumbs up’ for treating a number of ailments, from arthritis to carpal tunnel syndrome. When we use the power of massages to swap the sympathetic nervous system with the parasympathetic nervous system, you’ll see far-reaching impacts, from increased weight management, enhanced sleep hygiene, and digestive improvements to stabilized glucose levels and alleviated muscle tension.
SWEDISH MASSAGE THERAPY ON FOOT
Taking the weight of your day-to-day, we think that your feet deserve the best. As an essential cog in your pamper session wheel, we’ll inject your massage session with some well-earned TLC, reducing muscle stiffness, aches, and pain, while strengthening your ankles to avoid injury. A 4-in-1!
