Different Types of Massages You Should Know - Swasthya Ayurveda
                     Different Types 
of Massages You 
Should Know
Swedish Massage
By far Swedish massage is the most 
common type of massage offered and 
demanded in clinics and private offices. 
Swedish massage is a full-body technique 
that kneads muscles, strokes the skin, and 
relaxes tired, sore bodies.
Deep Tissue Massage
This massage modality uses more pressure than 
other kinds of massage. It is primarily for clients with 
chronic pain, injuries, or balance issues. Deep tissue 
massage is a more intense form of Swedish that 
combines slower strokes with deeper, fuller finger 
pressure.
Sports Massage
Depending on the client, this method serves two primary 
functions. It can be used to aid in the recovery of injured 
muscles or to make muscles more flexible and ready to 
compete at a higher level. Many "weekend athletes" 
require sports massage to aid in the healing of repetitive 
injuries caused by their activity.
Seated Massage
Seated massage, also known as "corporate 
massage," is a fully clothed system for treating 
each and everyday of tension in the neck, back, 
and arms. It is essentially a "disguised" form of 
Swedish massage performed while the client is 
seated in a special chair.
The Trigger Point
Trigger points help people with muscle 
pain and chronic injury-related 
conditions by activating small areas 
within the tissue to help ease soreness 
in other areas.
Thai Massage
Thai massage, unlike the other items on this 
list, is a combination of assisted stretching, 
massage, and yoga techniques. Clients are 
fully clothed and work on a mat rather than a 
table. Thai massage therapy is becoming more 
popular as people seek out more "active" types 
of massage therapy.
Prenatal
This is a specialized treatment for pregnant women 
who want relief from common aches and pains that 
occur in the months leading up to delivery. Consider it a 
gentler version of Swedish, but it has its own protocols 
and techniques.
Conclusion
Now that you have known all the different types of 
massages, It becomes easy for you to decide which one 
you should go for. If you are still confused about which 
one is best for you then I personally recommend 
healing massage therapy (Swedish Massage). In my 
point of view, this massage is the best one, or you can 
also try some others as well.
