Relaxation massage is a smooth, gentle treatment that relieves muscular tension, increases circulation, and promotes a general sense of relaxation. This massage is performed using Swedish techniques consisting of long, rhythmic strokes and small circular movements which help to break down adhesions and promote better circulation. Unlike deep tissue massages, a relaxation massage does not address the connective tissue of the muscles. It is not intended to treat sports injuries or other discomfort and is instead used to reduce muscle tension while bringing the body back to a relaxed state. Many people seek relaxation massage treatments after a long week at work or to help improve their mental health. 

A good relaxation massage relieves stress and muscle tension and will leave you oozing with a sense of wellbeing. It achieves this because of the general benefits of massage: it improves your circulation and blood flow, so your organs and skin get more oxygen; aiding with lymphatic drainage. Whether it's a full body massage or back massage, this type of therapeutic massage helps to relieve back pain and neck pain breaking up stubborn knots and tight soft tissue. A relaxation massage encourages your body to digest its food, and get rid of its toxins and it will help you to sleep better. A massage will also help soothe muscle soreness and sprains and encourage the skin to heal minor abrasions.
