“What is the difference between Swedish, Deep Tissue and Therapeutic Massage?”
Swedish massage is most often a relaxing, gentle massage. This massage is performed with lighter pressure. A Swedish massage activates the parasympathetic “rest and digest” nervous system. This type of massage is most likely performed for a full body experience with not much focus on any one body structure.
Deep Tissue Massage is a massage which focuses and aims on the deeper tissue and structures rather than whose which are superficial. A deep tissue massage will be more pressure and a bit more focused on certain areas of discomfort.
Therapeutic Massage does not necessarily mean painful or extreme pressure. A therapeutic massage will work with all structures around the area of discomfort. For example if you are experiencing low back pain, a therapeutic massage will include mid-back, low back, glutes and hamstrings.

“I’ve been seeing Laura for massage, about every three weeks, for many years. She works out the sore spots and I always leave feeling so much better. My job requires me to be on my feel quite a bit, my shoulder has given me pain for a long time. I look forward to my massage appointments because I know I’ll leave feeling so much better.”
