Swedish massage is the widely recognized and commonly used category of massage. The term Swedish massage is actually only recognized in English and Dutch-speaking countries and in Hungary. In all other countries, the style is referred to as classic massage.
In this article, we’ll be looking at the history and development of Swedish massage, what techniques are used as part of it, and what their benefits are.
The original development of Swedish massage is often credited to Pehr Henrik Ling, a pioneer of the teaching of physical education in Sweden. While Ling did found the Royal Central Gymnastics Institute in Sweden and was instrumental in developing calisthenics and free calisthenics, there is little or no evidence that he developed a new system of massage.
The basis of Swedish massage seems to have been developed from Chinese and Geek massage techniques by the Dutch practitioner Johann Georg Mezger, who is also responsible for applying French terms to name the basic strokes.
Swedish massage uses five styles of strokes. The five basic strokes are:
These techniques are applied in conjunction with massage oil and can vary from a light touch to gentle and vigorous pressure.
There are a number of benefits to regular sessions of Swedish massage, including:
At Northwest Career College, we operate one of the best Massage Therapy Schools in Las Vegas, and our Massage Therapy Course will teach you the skills you’ll need to apply the benefits of sports massage.
The benefits of massage therapy are widely recognized, with employment for massage therapists expected to increase by 22% between 2014-2024 , with an average massage therapist earning $39,360 a year. Additionally, many massage therapists maintain active, private practices, increasing both their flexibility and earnings.
