Massage is the manipulation of superficial and deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue to enhance function, aid in the healing process, and promote relaxation and well-being.

 Swedish massage uses five styles of long, flowing strokes to massage. The five basic strokes are effleurage (sliding or gliding), petrissage (kneading), tapotement (rhythmic tapping), friction (cross fiber) and vibration/shaking. Swedish massage has shown to be helpful in reducing pain and joint stiffness.

I currently offer a relaxing Swedish Massage treatment.  Each treatment will include a consultation to find out exactly what is required from the treatment, whether it is purely for relaxation, or if there is a specific area for concern.
