FAQ

A Swedish massage is a therapeutic massage technique that uses long, gliding strokes, kneading, rhythmic tapping, and gentle pressure to relax muscles and stimulate circulation. It is one of the most commonly requested forms of massage therapy and is known for promoting overall relaxation while easing muscle tension.

Bella Santé’s Relaxation Massage is rooted in these traditional Swedish massage techniques.

Swedish massage typically ranges from light to medium pressure. However, at Bella Santé, pressure is customizable:

  • Light for full relaxation
  • Medium for balanced muscle relief
  • Firm for deeper muscle engagement without full deep tissue intensity

Swedish massage focuses on relaxation, circulation, and gentle muscle release using flowing strokes.
Deep tissue massage uses slower, more concentrated pressure to target chronic tension and deeper muscle layers.

Guests looking for stress relief and general muscle relaxation typically prefer Swedish massage, while those with long-term tightness may choose deep tissue.

Frequency depends on stress levels and muscle activity. Many guests schedule:

  • Monthly sessions for maintenance
  • Biweekly sessions during periods of high stress
  • Occasional sessions for relaxation and recovery

Yes. By stimulating circulation and gently manipulating soft tissue, Swedish massage may help reduce muscle soreness and improve flexibility. It is particularly helpful for mild to moderate muscle tightness.
