The purpose of Swedish massage is to increase circulation in the blood and release toxins from the muscles. Other possible benefits an increase of oxygen flow and muscle tone. Swedish massage shortens recovery time from muscular strain by flushing the tissues of lactic acid, uric acid, and other metabolic wastes.
Reflexology works by applying pressure to points on the feet, hands or ears in order to improve health, relieve pain and promote relaxation. Reflexologists believe that certain zones on the feet correspond to various organs and muscles located elsewhere in the body. When pressure is applied to these zones, people experience beneficial health effects.
Deep tissue massage focuses on the deep layers of muscle tissues in an effort to release chronic patterns of tension. The massage uses many of the same strokes as classic massage therapy, with the main difference lying in the fact that a deep tissue massage involves slower movements and the application of greater pressure on specific muscles. It is especially helpful for chronically tense and contracted ares such as stiff necks, low back tightness and sore shoulders. The pressure is deeper and concentrated on areas of pain and tension.
