The word massage is derived from a Greek word meaning to press gently. Swedish Massage is a truly holistic treatment, which addresses the whole person’s psychological, physical and emotional well-being. It involves the kneading and manipulation of soft tissue (muscles, tendons and ligaments). Most practitioners use some kind of oil, so you will need to undress but your modesty will be preserved with the use of towels. This is a very relaxing experience so pe prepared to go home and sleep afterwards.
