Patients who are very muscular or overweight, are suffering from more chronic and repetitive physical stress, like athletes or construction or heavy moving, may find more satisfaction in receiving a deep tissue massage. Anyone who desires consistently stronger pressure, or has acute and specific pain or major knots to work out, will probably benefit more from a deep tissue massage as well.
When our massage therapists come into your home to perform a Swedish massage, they will bring with them a professional massage table, and you will be able to undress to whatever extent you feel comfortable (we recommend at least down to your underwear - the fewer obstructions the better for the therapist to properly apply traditional techniques). Of course, a towel or cover will be used and properly draped to protect your privacy at all times. You and your therapist can decide which professional level lotions, creams, or oils will be used to perform the massage.
