Classic massage or Swedish massage targets the superficial layers of musculature and focuses on the parts of the body that tend to hold the most tension, using rhythmical pressure with broad long strokes along joints mobilisation and stretching, to obtain or maintain health.

Body parts typically treated are back, shoulder, neck, arms, legs, feet, hands and can also include head.

What to expect

Before treatment, your therapist will provide a full consultation, asking you various questions about your health and lifestyle, to ensure treatment is right for you.

Treatments usually take place on a massage table or couch. The techniques involved will include effleurage (long gliding strokes), petrissage (muscle squeezing, or kneading, wringing or picking up of the skin or skin rolling,) stroking (a superficial touch using the palm of your hand or fingers,) and tapotement (patting, tapping, hacking or drumming of the hands or fingers.)

Whatever type of massage you are having, your therapist will advise you of what to expect before the treatment begins.
