Swedish Massage: Swedish massage involves long, kneading strokes combined with rhythmic tapping strokes and movement of the joints. This type of massage targets the uppermost layer of muscles and aims to relieve muscle tension.
Deep Tissue Massage: Deep tissue massage targets chronic tension in muscles that lie far below the body’s surface. Deep muscle techniques involve slow strokes, direct pressure or friction movements that go across the muscle grain.
Sports Massage: Sports massage is specifically tailored to different sports and sporting injuries. It is not a relaxing form of massage and can often be quite strenuous. It works by stretching tight muscles, stimulating inactive muscles, and improving the condition of the soft tissue.
Abdominal Massage: Abdominal massage utilizes gentle techniques that reduce tension and release adhesions, relax abdominal muscles, increase respiration, and enhance digestion.
