What To Expect FrOm a Swedish Massage

Includes effleurage (long, gliding strokes), petrissage (gentle kneading), tapotement (light rhythmic tapping), and passive joint movements.
Research suggests that Swedish massage can help reduce stress hormones like cortisol, increase levels of oxytocin (the "feel-good" hormone), and improve overall mood and relaxation. Studies have also shown potential benefits for reducing mild pain and improving sleep quality.
