Relaxation massage is the traditional form of massage used in western culture. It utilizes Swedish massage techniques to promote relaxation. Relaxation massage promotes healthy circulation, better sleep patterns, relief from stress and anxiety and a sense well-being.
What type of pressure is used?
Through gentle and mindful manipulation of the tissues, deep and profound relaxation can be achieved. It is not a deep tissue massage. It is not designed for working the deeper muscles of the body. While light pressure can be requested, most often medium to firm pressure is used. Pressure may vary depending on client preference and condition of body tissue.
What can I expect from a relaxation massage?
Relaxation is a full body massage including the head, neck, shoulders, back, legs, arms, hands and feet. During a session, the patient will remove most of their clothing and lie on a massage table with a light sheet and/or blanket draped over the body. Usually a relaxation massage can be modified and tailored to your specific concerns. Sometimes there is the option of adding aromatherapy to heighten the holistic experience of the massage. The massage takes place in a quiet, comforting environment, with music and/or candlelight in the background.
