What is Swedish Massage

Each session begins with a brief consultation to identify your key areas of tension and emotional state.
You’ll then be guided through a deeply relaxing massage that uses premium aromatherapy oils and smooth, intuitive strokes tailored to your comfort level.

Techniques may include:

  • Effleurage: long, sweeping strokes to warm and relax muscles

  • Petrissage: gentle kneading to release tension and improve circulation

  • Friction and compression: to encourage detoxification and release fascia

  • Breath-led rhythm: supporting nervous system regulation and mental calm

Clients often describe the experience as melting tension from the inside out — a full-body exhale for the mind and muscles.

Benefits

  • Eases physical tension and muscular tightness

  • Improves circulation, oxygenation, and lymphatic flow

  • Calms the nervous system and reduces stress hormones

  • Promotes better sleep and emotional balance

  • Supports immune and hormonal health through relaxation

  • Restores energy and mental clarity

  • What You’ll Feel

  • A sense of warmth, lightness, and deep calm throughout the body

  • Muscles feel softer and more open

  • Many clients experience improved sleep and reduced anxiety for days afterward

  • Subtle emotional release or a wave of tiredness post-session — a normal part of the body’s rebalancing process

 

Aftercare & What to Expect

  • To get the most from your massage:

  • Drink water — helps flush released toxins and supports hydration.

  • Rest or move gently — your body may feel relaxed and heavy; avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours.

  • Avoid alcohol and caffeine — allow your system to detox naturally.

  • Take a warm bath — adding Epsom or magnesium salts can prolong the benefits.

  • Notice your breath — keep connecting to the calm rhythm established during your session.

  • Minor soreness may occur if you were very tight — this is temporary and usually followed by a deep sense of ease.
