Swedish Massage in Los Angeles
What is it?
Swedish massage is the most popular therapeutic style in the US. It combines five core techniques (effleurage, petrissage, friction, tapotement and vibration) at light-to-medium pressure to calm the nervous system, improve circulation and release general muscle tension.
It is the go-to choice for anyone after deep relaxation without intense deep work. Warm oils and ambient music are standard.
Benefits
- Deep relaxation and stress reduction
