Get answers to common questions about Swedish Massage - 60 Mins.

During a 60-minute Swedish Massage you can expect long, flowing strokes, gentle kneading, and light to moderate pressure. Your therapist will assess areas of tension, adjust pressure to comfort, and ensure a relaxing experience focused on stress relief and circulation.

Arrive a few minutes early to complete intake forms, hydrate, and communicate any health concerns. Wear comfortable clothing and let your therapist know pressure preferences. You may undress to your comfort level; sheets provide privacy throughout the session.

Prenatal massage can be beneficial, but you should check with your prenatal care provider first. If pregnant, inform Winter Tree Massage Therapy when booking; therapists can modify techniques, positions, and pressure to safely accommodate each pregnancy stage.
