7 Reasons why Swedish Massage Therapy is a Must

Swedish Massage Therapy

Swedish spa is one of the most demanding oil massage therapies in kolkata. This technique has been used for many years with proven benefits. And today, it has become an essential spa therapy. The masseuse uses firm yet gentle strokes in the massage. Getting it done regularly can work wonders on your body.

An average spa therapy lasts for approximately 60 minutes. It takes you through a journey of full-body rejuvenation.

Who Is The Father Of Swedish Massage Therapy?

While massage may be the oldest natural medical practice in history, it was not until the 1800s that specific massage techniques were codified into a particular style or modality.

The Swedish Massage modality was invented around 1868 by Dutch doctor Johann Georg Mezger. However, it is Per Henrik Ling who is often (and wrongly) credited with inventing Swedish Massage. The historical mix-up is common, and it’s worth briefly exploring who both men were and why this inaccuracy still exists today.
