What Is Swedish Massage?

Swedish massage is one of the most common and well-known therapies, marked by fluid strokes along the body, friction, light kneading, and rhythmic tapping. The massage increases blood flow and oxygenation to your muscles, naturally reducing stress and helping your body let go of tension. This massage therapy alleviates pain by releasing tightness from head to toe, making it ideal for aching, sore muscles.

Our expert massage therapists recommend Swedish massage to de-stress, improve circulation, or relieve muscle tension after an injury or chronic pain flare. Swedish massage uses less pressure than other massage therapies and works best for those who wish to target specific muscles without the intensity of deep tissue work. Whether you aim to improve your overall well-being or reset after a long week, our Swedish massage in Glen Allen, VA, will help you reach deep physical and mental relief.

What to Expect from Your First Visit to Hand & Stone

When you arrive for your first massage therapy session at Hand & Stone, your therapist will discuss your needs, preferences, and health concerns. Whether you have areas of tension you’d like to focus on, sensitive spots you’d rather avoid, or medical conditions that may affect your treatment, your therapist will take note and adjust your massage accordingly. During future visits, we’ll tweak your experience to fit your changing needs and ensure you always receive thoughtful, tailored care. Your massage will be conducted in a peaceful, private room, complete with adjustable lighting and sound controls, a heated massage table draped with crisp linens, and a plush blanket for your comfort. If you have any additional questions, concerns, or requests during your massage, your therapist will do their best to accommodate you. To further enhance your relaxation, add one of our aromatherapy or facial treatments to your session.
