Swedish Massage Therapy in Longmont, CO
At Be Well Bodyworks, we offer Swedish massage—a gentle, flowing form of bodywork that promotes relaxation, improves circulation, and supports overall well-being. This classic technique is the foundation of most table massage and is ideal for those new to massage or seeking a calming, full-body experience.

What Is Swedish Massage?
Swedish massage uses long, gliding strokes with light to medium pressure, often incorporating lotion or oil to allow smooth movement across the skin. The strokes typically follow the direction of blood flow back toward the heart, supporting both circulatory and lymphatic health.
This technique includes five foundational movements:
Effleurage (light stroking)
Petrissage (kneading)
Friction
Tapotement (rhythmic percussion)
Vibration
While not every stroke is used on every area of the body, our therapists customize each session based on your goals, comfort level, and areas of tension.

What to Expect During Your Session
Swedish massage is typically offered in 60- or 90-minute full-body sessions, though shorter treatments are available to focus on specific areas like the back, shoulders, or neck.
Before your first session, you’ll complete a brief intake to discuss any injuries, medical conditions, or preferences to ensure the massage is both safe and effective.
