The session

Relaxation that loosens your whole body

I work with gliding, kneading and friction strokes, covering the whole body with oil. It's the massage most people picture when they think of relaxing, and it delivers exactly that. It boosts circulation and switches off your mind.

I had never had a massage before. It was really relaxing, I loved it and plan to come back. It's so worth it, good not just for the body but for self-esteem too.

Step by step

Your session, from start to finish

We talk first

You tell me how your body and your week are going, and whether there's any area you'd like me to avoid or focus on.

The whole body, in sequence

I work through the back, legs, arms and neck in one continuous sequence. The pace is steady, and that's what makes your mind switch off.

You get up slowly

At the end I let you lie there for a while. Jumping up right away undoes half the effect.

What it's for

What the relaxing massage helps with

It's the pick for anyone living life on the run who truly needs to slow down. It works the whole body instead of focusing on a single spot.

  • Stress, the built-up kind that isn't pain yet, but already weighs on you.
  • Physical and mental fatigue, when your body and mind are asking for the same break.
  • Poor circulation, heavy legs and a swollen feeling at the end of the day.
  • Restless nights, when you go to bed exhausted and still can't switch off.
Being straight with you

When I recommend another technique

I'd rather tell you this before you pay for a session that won't work for you.

The relaxing massage is for you if
  • You want to relax your whole body rather than one spot
  • You enjoy the feel of oil and continuous movement
  • It's your first massage and you want to start with the basics done well
  • You want to leave feeling light, without working on a specific pain
Then I'll point you another way
  • If your tension has turned into pain that keeps coming back to the same spot, Shiatsu Zen works on that better
  • If you can't use oil because of sensitive skin or an allergy, let me know before booking
  • If you're pregnant, let me know beforehand, because the session changes position and pressure

Frequently asked questions

What people ask most about the relaxing massage

If your question isn't here, send it on WhatsApp and I'll answer before you book.

Are relaxing massage and Swedish massage the same thing?

In practice, yes. Swedish is the name of the technique, with gliding, kneading and friction strokes using oil. Relaxing is what most people call that same work.

How often can I have it?

Every 7 days. The relaxing massage has no contraindications. What applies to any massage is that people with thrombosis or a fever shouldn't have any.

Do I need to be undressed?

You stay under the sheet the whole time, and I only uncover the area I'm working on at that moment.

Can I have it if I have sensitive skin or an oil allergy?

Let me know before booking. The relaxing massage relies on oil for the gliding strokes, so in that case we switch the product or pick a technique that doesn't use oil, like shiatsu.

Can I have it while pregnant?

Let me know beforehand, because the session changes position and pressure.
