Swedish massage uses lighter pressure with long, flowing strokes to relax the superficial muscle layers and ease general tension: ideal for relaxation and stress relief. Deep tissue massage uses slower, firmer pressure to reach the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue, targeting chronic pain, knots and injury recovery. If you're new to massage or looking to unwind, Swedish is the better starting point. If you have specific muscle issues or chronic pain, deep tissue may be more effective.

A Swedish massage is what Western countries call a classic massage. Therapists apply varying degrees of pressure to relieve aching and stressed muscle tissue using five types of long, fluid strokes: sliding (effleurage), kneading (petrissage), tapping (tapotement), rubbing, and vibration.

Rest and drink plenty of water. You should avoid having a hot shower, and expect to need the toilet more than usual as a result of your lymph circulation flushing out toxins.
