Swedish Massage
The classic Swedish massage is one of the most popular types of massage which uses long, flowing strokes to relax the muscles and improve circulation. The movements target the uppermost layer of muscles and aim to relieve muscle tension, stress, and pain. In Swedish massage a few techniques are incorporated, among the ones I focus on are effleurage, petrissage, friction as well as tapotement.
​
The traditional Swedish massage is a gentle massage that is suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels. It can be used to improve circulation, reduce muscle tension, and relieve stress. Swedish massage can also be used to improve athletic performance and recovery.

"I had a grumbling muscle injury so I booked an appointment with Penny as she was highly recommended to me. She very quickly located the source of my injury and worked to ease the pain thus speeding up my recovery. I would recommend Penny as a very knowledgeable professional in this field."
