Massage varies from client to client. Some prefer deep tissue while others prefer the more relaxing swedish style of massage. Deep Tissue is firm, deep pressure used on trigger points and particular areas that are holding stress. This style can be painful for many clients, but for others, it's not painful at all.

Swedish massage consists of light, relaxing strokes used to relieve stress and tension.
