By combining various techniques like gliding, kneading, circular motions, and light stretching, we work to relax the body, ease tension, and improve overall wellness. Swedish massage is a great option for anyone seeking relief from stress, muscle stiffness, or joint pain. It also enhances the body’s circulation, contributing to a boosted immune system and better flexibility.
This massage style is often used in conjunction with our chiropractic care to enhance the benefits of spinal adjustments and speed up the recovery process. Whether you’re dealing with tension from everyday activities or recovering from an injury, Swedish massage can help restore balance and relaxation.
At Awender Chiropractic in Redwood City, CA, Swedish massage is used as a complementary therapy to support our chiropractic treatments, providing holistic relief for a variety of musculoskeletal conditions.
What to Expect During Your Swedish Massage
Before your session, our licensed massage therapist will take time to review your health history and discuss your specific needs. Based on this information, the therapist will customize the massage to address your individual concerns, ensuring that you receive the most effective treatment possible.
The session typically begins with gentle strokes along your back and limbs. Your therapist will use a combination of gliding strokes, kneading, circular motions, and light stretching to ease tension and promote relaxation. The pressure applied will be adjusted based on your preferences, with deep tissue options available for those who prefer firmer pressure.
After your massage, it’s recommended to drink plenty of water to help flush out any toxins that may have been released during the treatment. Our therapists may also provide wellness tips to help maintain the benefits of the massage in your daily life, offering suggestions for stretching or self-care routines to reduce stress and tension at home
