A full-body massage using oil and flowing strokes — long glides, kneading and circular movements — to relax muscles and boost circulation. The pressure is adjustable and it's generally more relaxation-focused than deep tissue. It's the most common massage style and a good default first choice.
Swedish uses flowing, moderate-pressure strokes for relaxation across the whole body; deep tissue uses slower, firmer pressure to release deep knots and chronic tension. Choose Swedish to relax, deep tissue for specific muscle problems. Many therapists can blend the two.
Swedish is done with oil on a couch — you lie still and relax. Thai is done clothed on a mat with assisted stretching and no oil — it's active and energising. Swedish to unwind, Thai to feel stretched.
You undress to your comfort level and lie under a towel, with only the area being worked uncovered. The therapist uses oil and flowing strokes, and you can ask for lighter or firmer pressure at any time. Most people find it very relaxing.

What is a Swedish massage?
Swedish massage is a full-body treatment using oil and flowing strokes to relax muscles and improve circulation, at a pressure you control. It's the most widely-offered style and a good first choice if you want to relax rather than target a specific problem.
Swedish vs deep tissue — which should I book?
Swedish for relaxation and general tension at a comfortable pressure; deep tissue for firmer, focused work on stubborn knots. If you're unsure, Swedish is the safer default — and you can always ask your therapist for firmer pressure within it.
What should I expect during the massage?
You'll undress to your comfort level and lie on a couch under a towel, with only the area being worked on uncovered. The therapist uses oil and flowing strokes across the body; you can ask for lighter or firmer pressure at any point. Most people find it deeply relaxing.
