Massage therapists use long smooth strokes, kneading, and circular movements with an oil or lotion. The strokes are usually done in the direction of blood towards the heart. Swedish massage therapy can be very gentle and relaxing.
Deep tissue massage targets chronic tension in muscles that lie far below the body’s surface. Deep muscle techniques involve slow strokes, direct pressure or friction movements that go across the muscle grain.
