Swedish Massage

The classic, done properly

Warm oil, long gliding strokes, and a full hour where nothing is asked of you. Swedish is the massage everything else is measured against.

Best for first-timers

Full-body relaxation

Light to medium pressure

What actually happens on the table

Your therapist works with warm oil in long, continuous strokes that follow the direction of blood returning to the heart, layered with kneading, light percussion and slow circular friction over the broad muscles of the back, shoulders and legs.

The pressure stays in the light-to-medium range on purpose. Swedish is not about grinding out a knot — it is about giving the nervous system sixty uninterrupted minutes to come down out of fight-or-flight. Most guests fall asleep somewhere in the second half. That is the point.

What it is good for

  • Everyday stress that has settled into your shoulders and jaw
  • Poor circulation and cold hands and feet
  • Sleep that has stopped being restful
  • General stiffness with no single obvious cause
  • Recovering from a hard week rather than a hard injury

How to choose your length

Sixty minutes covers back, shoulders, neck, arms and legs at a comfortable pace. Ninety adds the front of the body, hands, feet and scalp, with real time spent on whatever area you flag at intake. A hundred and twenty is for people who want nothing skipped and no clock in the room.
