Classical Full Body Massage

The classical full body massage is a therapeutic massage where I use a combination of Swedish and deep tissue strokes, and muscle stretching techniques. Special emphasis is placed on the areas that are the most stressed. The goal is to achieve the greatest state of relaxation and healing for both the body and the mind.

Swedish massage is the relaxing, stress-reducing type of massage most people think about when they want a massage. Swedish massage includes light, sensual feel-good strokes as well as stretching, joint movements, gentle shaking and rocking. Generally, Swedish massage promotes deep relaxation.

Deep Tissue Massage is more specific than Swedish massage and uses slower, more direct, and deeper pressure, strokes, or friction on contracted areas to release chronic patterns of tension. Deep tissue focuses more on problematic areas. For example in the case of a runner, the focus will be on the muscles of the legs and buttocks as well as mobilisation of the ankle, knee and hip joints.
