What is Swedish Massage?
Swedish massage is one of the most well-known and widely practiced massage styles, using long, flowing strokes to promote relaxation, increase circulation, and melt away muscle tension. It’s ideal for those looking to de-stress, ease general soreness, or simply enjoy a calming, therapeutic experience.
