A Swedish massage is a gentle type of full-body massage. Clients will be covered with a sheet while lying on the massage table. The therapist will move the sheet to uncover areas that they are actively working on. Some techniques common in Swedish massages include:
• Kneading
• Deep circular motions
• Vibration and tapping
• Passive joint movement techniques
Swedish massages will typically last 60-90 minutes. While most clients choose to keep their underwear on, most massage therapists give them the option to remove all their clothes. This type of massage is good for people new to massages who are looking for relaxation or minor pain management.
