What Is Swedish Massage?

Swedish massage is one of the most common and well-known therapies, characterized by sweeping stokes along the body, rhythmic tapping, friction, and light kneading. The massage increases blood flow and oxygenation to your muscles, gently reducing stress and helping your body let go of tension. This massage therapy alleviates pain by releasing tightness from head to toe, making it ideal for aching, sore muscles.

Our expert massage therapists recommend Swedish massage to de-stress, improve circulation, or relieve muscle tension after a chronic pain flare or injury. Swedish massage uses less pressure than other massage therapies and is best suited to those who wish to target specific muscles without the intensity of deep tissue work. Whether your goal is to recenter yourself after a long week or improve your overall well-being, our Swedish massage in Houston, TX, will help you reach deep mental and physical relaxation.

Our core Swedish Massage involves long, fluid strokes of muscles and tissues with pressure that varies from light to medium to firm. This type of massage is considered to be one of the most relaxing styles. Your massage therapists will adjust the pressure according to your sensitivity and preference.
