Angie Massage

$49* Introductory 1-Hour Massage Session

Swedish massage is one of the most traditional forms of
massage therapy in western culture. This style involves medium
and firm pressure in a variety of different strokes.

Most massage therapists trained in Texas were taught this style
and it will be familiar to anyone that has been to a few different
day spas or wellness centers in Houston. It is used to improve
a client's general health and overall well-being.

The techniques used during a Swedish Massage were
originally developed by a Swedish doctor named Per Henrik
Ling in the 1700's. However, many of the words that are used to
describe this style are actually French because that was the
most widely used language in Europe at the time:

Effleurage - smooth flowing strokes across the surface

Petrissage - kneading, squeezing, or rolling muscles

Tapotement - tapping, hacking, cupping or pounding

Vibration - rapid shaking that increases circulation

Friction - rubbing the skin in opposite directions

Swedish massage has been known to positively affect the
muscles, nerves, glands, circulation, and lymphatic system.
This
not only relieves muscle tension, but you will usually feel both
relaxed and energized after your massage.
