Improve Circulation & Loosen Tight Muscles With A Swedish Massage In Richmond

Swedish Massage

Swedish massage is a popular service that our Richmond customers request and involves manipulating the body's tissues with long strokes, light pressure, and kneading or tapping movements. The benefits of Swedish massage include a reduction in joint and muscle pain, a boost in immune function, and a more relaxed nervous system.

The modality of Swedish massage makes it the preferred practice for a variety of neurological and orthopedic conditions. To schedule a Swedish massage in Richmond, click on the link to contact Nirvana Bodywork.

Swedish Massage Therapy

Swedish massage therapy is the most widely practiced type of therapeutic massage. It focuses on muscle relaxation, targeting superficial muscles (versus the connective tissues targeted in deep-tissue massage), and increasing blood circulation throughout the body.

A few of the many benefits that Swedish massage offers include:

  • Stress management
  • Improved circulation
  • Pain management
  • Increased immunity
  • Improved sleep
  • Flexibility and range of motion
  • Headache relief
  • Better posture

Because Swedish massage increases the levels of serotonin and dopamine - or the "feel good" hormones - in our Richmond clients, it also enhances mood and feelings of emotional well-being. Researchers have identified Swedish massage as an alternative to long-term pain medications, which are often addictive and lose their effectiveness over time.
