Swedish massage is recognized and used as one of the most common types of massage. Sweden and Hungary are the only two English- and Dutch-speaking countries that recognize the term Swedish massage. In all other countries, classic massage is referred to as this style.
This article will explore the history and development of Swedish massage, as well as the techniques that are used as part of it, and the potential benefits.
The Development of Swedish Massage
Many credit Pehr Henrik Ling for the original development of Swedish massage. He was the father of physical education in Sweden. Ling did found the Royal Central Gymnastics Institute in Sweden and was very influential in calisthenics and free calisthenics; however, there is little or no evidence that he developed a new system of massage.
It is thought that Swedish massage originated with Chinese and Greek massage techniques developed by the Dutch practitioner Johann Georg Mezger, who also applied French terms to the basic strokes.
How Do Swedish Massage Techniques Work?
Five types of Swedish massage are used. The five basic strokes are:
A gliding or sliding stroke known as effleurage
Petrissage, or kneading
Tapotement, or rhythmic tapping
Whether friction is cross-fiber or between fibers
and vibration / shaking
They utilize massage oil and can vary from a light touch to gentle and vigorous pressure.
Why Is Swedish Massage So Beneficial?
The following benefits can be gained from regular Swedish massage sessions:
Massage can induce relaxation and relieve the tension in the back and neck muscles of office workers, which can be a cause of stress.
Studies have found that Swedish massage helps with pain management, fatigue reduction, joint stiffness, and improves function in patients with knee osteoarthritis.
Massage has been shown to have a positive effect on many common mental health disorders, such as depression and anxiety.
