Relaxation Massage

​

What Is Relaxation Massage?

Long smooth gliding strokes that are both rhythmic and flowing.

Pressure that is deeply relaxing, but not painful.

A treatment designed to relax and soothe you, but not to relieve chronic pain or other underlying conditions.

A therapist who also takes the massage environment into account – look for soothing music, warm towels, and occasionally using essential oils to enhance both the environment and the effects of the massage.
