Swedish Massage - Washington, DC

Swedish massage is the most popular type of massage in North America. It involves the use of hands, elbows or forearms to manipulate the superficial layers of the muscles to improve physical and mental health. Passive or active movement of the joints might also be part of the massage session.

The massage therapist applies smooth, long strokes, circular movements and kneading on superficial layers of muscle using massage lotion or oil to produce a very gentle and relaxing massage experience.
