What is Swedish Massage

Swedish massage therapy is the modality that comes to mind when most people think about massage. As the best-known type of bodywork performed today, one of the primary goals of the Swedish massage technique is to relax the entire body. This is accomplished by rubbing the muscles with long gliding strokes in the direction of blood returning to the heart. But Swedish massage therapy goes beyond relaxation. Swedish massage is exceptionally beneficial for increasing the level of oxygen in the blood, decreasing muscle toxins, improving circulation and flexibility while easing tension.

A study conducted by the National Centre for Complementary and Alternative Medicine, and published in The New York Times, found that volunteers who received a 45-minute Swedish massage experienced significant decreases in levels of the stress hormone cortisol, as well as arginine vasopressin-a hormone that can lead to increases in cortisol. Volunteers also had increases in the number of lymphocytes, white blood cells that are part of the immune system, and a boost in the immune cells that may help fight colds and the flu.

Swedish Massage Techniques

Additional Swedish massage techniques include circular pressure applied by the hands and palms, firm kneading, percussion-like tapping, bending and stretching. Before and during your Swedish massage session, communication is encouraged with your professional massage therapist so that your massage is customised to your specific needs.

Auryveda Abhyanga and Shirodhara

Abhyanga or Ayurvedic massage, has the main function of stimulating the lymphatic system.  The lymphatic system is what circulates the nutrients throughout the body and what keeps toxins moved out.  When you receive abhyanga on a regular basis you are keeping your lymphatic system cleared and clean.
Shirodhara or oil over the forehead is one of the most relaxing treatments you will ever receive.  It takes care of anything to do with the head, ears, eyes, nose and throat and also the mind.  When both Abhyanga and Shirodhara are used together you have a completely relaxing, balancing treatment.

  Conditions these two treatments will balance include:, 

• Stress, 
• Dehydration,
• Insomnia, 
• Worry, 
• Anxiety’
•  Fear,
• Panic attacks, 
• Depression, 
• Poor eyesight, 
• Nervous disorders, 
• MS,
• Skin wrinkling 
• Hair loss, 
• Congestion, 
• Poor memory.

These two treatments given together over continuous sessions improve the health of the body and mind.
