What Happens During A Swedish Back Massage
During a Swedish back massage, our Calmish Spa therapist uses different strokes to warm up and stretch muscles. This helps relieve tension in those your muscles, which is caused by anything from injuries to everyday stressors. Swedish massage promotes relaxation, among other health benefits.
Before the massage, our therapist would ask you about any injuries or other conditions that they should know about. Things you would want tell our therapist include areas of tightness or pain, allergies, and conditions like pregnancy. It should also be stated up front if you have a preference for light or firm pressure. It’s best not to get a massage if you are ill.
After the consultation, our therapist will instruct you how to lie on the table–face up or face down, and underneath a sheet or towel—then leave the room. He’ll knock before entering.
