Swedish Massage
Swedish massage is one of the most common and well-known massage techniques. The focus is mainly on energizing the body and promoting circulation. It consists of five basic strokes, all flowing toward the heart, designed to warm up the muscle tissues. When this technique is used, only the area that is being worked is exposed. Therapists use a combination of kneading, rolling, and effleurage (a gliding stroke that is unique to Swedish massage). The many benefits of Swedish massage may include generalized relaxation, dissolution of scar tissue adhesions, and improved circulation, which may speed healing and reduce swelling from injury.
"I began my chiropractic care in October 2017 because of increased pain and decreased mobility in my left hip that had gotten increasingly worse over the previous 4-5 months. I love that I have been able benefit from whole body treatment that in turn has almost completely taken away the issues I was experiencing with my hip. I am so grateful for feeling good again and I highly recommend Healthy Life for your chiropractic care and total life wellness."
