Swedish Massage
Swedish massage is one of the oldest methods of inducing relaxation and relieving stress in the body. People who undergo Swedish massage describe it as a highly relaxing experience. There are six recognized styles: the Effleurage stroke (long, gliding movements), Petrissage (kneading), Tapotement (rhythmic tapping), Vibration (rapidly shaking or vibrating specific points), Friction (slowly rubbing the skin in one direction), and Percussion many physical functions and systems of the body such as movement flexibility coordination.
The deep pressure promotes relaxation while stimulating your senses with a combination of warm carrier oils designed to soothe as they relax tense muscles.
Benefits of Swedish massage:
- Relief from pain.
- The release of endorphins, the bodies feel-good hormones
- Improved blood and lymph circulation
- Increased energy levels and feels of vitality
- Injury recovery
- A general sense of health and well-being
- helps sustain relaxation of body and mind
Contra-indications to Swedish massage:
Complications from Swedish massage are rare; however, we follow a some precautions to prevent any risks during massage therapy:
- Massages are generally not recommended for individuals with diabetes, varicose veins, phlebitis, or other blood vessel problems, as these conditions and diseases can increase the likelihood of a blood clot being dislodged and circulated throughout the body.
- Massage may lead to a state of deep relaxation. However, too much massage can trigger severe spasms and autonomic dysreflexia.
- Since massage therapists rely on their clients to provide feedback and direction, it’s essential to use caution whenever performing any methods that stimulate the skin and underlying tissues.

Tina, Medway
I had been feeling very low and depressed the past few months and I booked the Stress Relief warm body deluxe package . I must say I didn’t expect it to be that perfect like in the spa. It was amazing , with relaxing music and setting, I couldn’t have asked for more. The massage with warm shells and facial treatment just left me de-stressed, I felt confident and peaceful than I have been in months.
