Swedish Massage Portland Oregon

Swedish Massage

There is an art to delivering the perfect Swedish massage. This full-body massage is perfect for emotional stress and muscle tension. Our approach is to completely calm the nervous system, increase circulation, reduce swelling, and flush out toxins from the body by using long, smooth, relatively superficial strokes that move blood and lymph towards the heart. Unlike techniques like sports massage, this massage is gentle with slower movements. Swedish massage can also be good for balancing your immune system and recovering from nervous system challenges. This is a great way to lower stress hormones like cortisol that can breakdown the body and energy reserves.
