First developed by the Swede Per Henrik Ling (1776-1839), in the early 19th Century on the basis of sound physiological principles,
Swedish massage is now widely accepted by the medical community. In fact, Sir William Bennett first introduced it to Saint George’s Hospital in London in 1899. It can be defined as the manipulation of soft tissue for therapeutic purposes.

Massage can benefit tired; aching muscles but also has considerable preventative health benefits. The various movements in Swedish massage affect the skin, muscles, blood vessels, lymphatic, nerves and some of the internal organs thus assisting in the elimination of toxins from the system and counteracting the build-up of tension. In this way the danger of stress related disorders could be minimised. It also encourages the release of endorphins that help promote a feeling of well being.
Swedish Massage is not only a treatment which gives beneficial effects all over the body but it is also an excellent preventative therapy and can help maintain the body's optimum working condition.
