Swedish Massage

A full-body massage usually includes your arms, legs, hands and feet, your neck and back and your stomach. The area around the breasts is usually massaged but not the breasts themselves.

The therapy involves soft, long, kneading strokes, as well as light, rhythmic, tapping strokes, on topmost layers of muscles. This is also combined with movement of the joints. By relieving muscle tension, Swedish massage therapy can be both relaxing and energizing.

Even with a full-body massage, most of you stays covered most of the time. As your therapist I will unwrap your arm and shoulder, for instance, or uncover your leg whilst I massage that part of your body. When I need you to turn over, I will hold the towel up as a screen so you can turn over in private.
