Swedish massage therapy is the most well-known and widely practiced type of therapeutic massage—and for good reason. This type of massage focuses on muscle relaxation, targeting superficial muscles (rather than the connective tissues targeted in deep-tissue massage) and increasing blood circulation. Full body Swedish massage includes the back, neck, legs, arms, hands, and sometimes the feet and head. Education: Port Townsend School of Massage
