Swedish massage typically involves a combination of the following techniques:

• Effleurage: Long, gliding strokes that help to warm up the muscles and promote relaxation.

• Petrissage: Kneading and squeezing motions that target specific muscles, releasing tension and improving circulation.

• Vibration: Fine, rapid shaking or trembling movements that can help relax and loosen the muscles.
