Swedish massage is a series of maneuvers applied to the muscles or joints to restore tired, sluggish, or inhibited muscles. It aims to maximize the body's capacity for action, improve blood circulation by promoting the return of blood to the heart, and enhance lymphatic circulation, nutrition, and cellular elimination.
Swedish massage harmonizes tensions and stimulates the person's self-regulating functions by activating their self-healing power. It is an excellent stress management tool! Prices subject to change without notice.
Deep tissue massage is a technique that consists of gripping and stretching the tissues to release the deep muscle fibres between the different layers of muscles and fascias, as well as the postural muscles. This method is frequently used in clinical massage therapy, physiotherapy and orthotherapy. With a therapeutic scope of action, deep tissue massage excels in muscle relaxation and improvement of locomotor problems.
When properly performed, it can also lead to relaxation. Deep tissue massage follows the same protocol as other massage therapy techniques. The main difference is in the execution: the pace is much slower to encourage penetration through the muscle layers. Similarly, the strength of the manoeuvres is progressive in order to warm up the muscles and avoid spasms.
