Today, one of the most commonly used massages worldwide is the Swedish Massage. It is typically known as a muscle massage, used initially on gymnasts; it is excellent for the relief and relaxation of stressed and tired muscles. Learn how to do a relaxation massage on your partner and family. It is even great to learn to self-massage.

The techniques of Effleurage-light and deep stroking, Petrisage-kneading, Tapotement-hacking or slapping, and Friction-working with the fingertips will be taught in this workshop. You will learn how to do massage, dry with a person clothed, and with oil (on the back, arms, legs, and head). Add your aromatherapy knowledge, and it becomes a combined healing modality.
