Swedish bodywork is the most popular type of bodywork in the United States. It involves the use of hands, forearms or elbows to manipulate the superficial layers of the muscles to improve mental and physical health. Active or passive movement of the joints may also be part of the bodywork. The benefits of swedish bodywork include increased blood circulation, mental and physical relaxation, decreased stress and muscle tension, and improved range of motion.

Deep tissue bodywork is designed to relieve pain and muscle tension throughout the body.

Adhesions in the muscle are very important to address because they cause pain, inflammation and limit motion of the muscles and joints.
