What Is Swedish Massage?

Gentle care for your body and mind

Swedish massage is a classic full-body treatment using long, flowing strokes with light to moderate pressure. It is one of the best starting points for first-time clients and anyone looking for a relaxation massage.

Unlike deep tissue massage, Swedish massage focuses on calming the nervous system, improving circulation, and reducing general tension without intense pressure.

At Woodroffe Health Centre, your Registered Massage Therapist adjusts pressure, pace, and focus areas based on your comfort level and goals. Sessions are available in 30, 45, 60, and 90 minutes.
