Everything you need to know
A Swedish massage uses a series of rhythmic strokes, circular motions, pressure, kneading, and tapping motions to target the top layers of muscle. It also involves the passive movement of joints for a combination that is unparalleled in its ability to relax the body.
It is widely considered one of the most popular massage styles, and based on the relaxation people experience after, it isn’t any wonder why.
Keep in mind, Swedish massage will likely have you feeling relaxed, but it is also well known for its ability to energize due to the stimulation of nerve endings and increased blood flow.
If you’re struggling with muscle tension from daily life (particularly tension in your lower back, shoulder, and/or neck), or you’re simply looking for a way to treat yourself to a rejuvenating experience, this classic massage style is always a safe bet for anyone looking to benefit from a massage. Visit In2itive for a Swedish massage.
Get prepared for your massage
Swedish massage is often considered a classic massage style because it uses techniques that most people are familiar with (i.e. kneading, pressure, circular motions).
You’ll find that this massage style is relatively gentle in comparison to a deep tissue massage therapy in Brampton, making it the perfect option if you’re looking for a massage you can enjoy both during and after the fact.
During your massage, you can expect to be laying on your back. How you want to be dressed is completely up to you and your comfort level. Your therapist will discuss your pain points with you and will focus on these problem areas during the massage (i.e. shoulders, neck, lower back, etc.). If you’re feeling tension and discomfort all over, your massage will target the whole body.

Oftentimes, people get Swedish Massage and Deep Tissue Massage confused. As two of the more popular and common massage styles, it’s understandable why this happens; however, there are some key differences between the two massage styles that are undeniable. Most notably, a Deep Tissue Massage uses more pressure than a Swedish Massage. Because the former is meant to stimulate the sub-layer of musculature and fascia, stronger and deeper pressure needs to be applied to reach these muscles.
As a result of this more intense pressure, a Deep Tissue Massage can be a slightly uncomfortable yet rewarding experience. A Swedish massage, on the other hand, is all about relaxation and reducing muscle tension through careful strokes and gentle kneading. Keep in mind that a Swedish Massage can still result in a significant reduction in tension and discomfort; however, if you’re struggling with more pronounced muscle injuries and discomfort then a Deep Tissue Massage might be more appropriate.
