Swedish massage is probably the most well known type of massage. It is usually what comes to mind when someone pictures a massage. This modality consists mainly of long flowing strokes, kneading, and joint movements designed primarily to increase blood and lymph circulation.

In addition to improving circulation, Swedish massage increases the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to tissues, enhances the removal of metabolic wastes, helps to relieve certain types of pain and muscle soreness, restores joint mobility, loosens scar tissue and adhesions due to injury and surgery, promotes relaxation, and soothes the nervous system.
