Classic full-body massage that accelerates blood circulation.
Swedish Massage: The Gold Standard of Classic Massage
Swedish massage is the technique systematized by Swedish physiologist Per Henrik Ling in the 19th century, forming the foundation of modern Western massage therapy. As the most requested type of massage in spas worldwide, Swedish massage is performed by applying five basic hand techniques in a rhythmic flow. At Royal Uzungöl SPA & Wellness, a 60-minute Swedish massage is the perfect starting point for both guests experiencing massage for the first time and those with a regular massage routine.
Five Classic Techniques: From Effleurage to Tapotement
Our experienced therapists skillfully apply five classic techniques throughout the session. Effleurage (long gliding strokes) warms the muscles and accelerates circulation. Petrissage (kneading) relaxes muscle fibers and releases tension points. Friction (rubbing) targets adhesions in deep tissues. Tapotement (rhythmic tapping) revitalizes muscles and stimulates nerve endings. Vibration (shaking) completes the session with deep relaxation. Scientifically proven benefits of these techniques include a reduction in cortisol levels, increased blood and lymph circulation, and the balancing of muscle tone.
Who Is the 60-Minute Session Ideal For?
The 60-minute duration is optimal for working the entire body in a balanced way. It is our most recommended session for those who work at a desk, those experiencing mild to moderate muscle tension, those looking to improve sleep quality, and guests who will be having a professional massage experience for the first time. Your therapist will adjust the pressure intensity according to your preference; you may choose a soft and calming application or a medium-intensity, revitalizing one.
