The Differences between Swedish Massage and Deep Tissue?

Deep tissue and Swedish massage are both two common massages. While they have some distinguished differences: deep tissue massage uses significantly more pressure and targets deeper muscle layers to address chronic tension and pain, while a Swedish massage uses lighter pressure with long, sweeping strokes to promote relaxation and improve circulation, making it better for general relaxation and stress relief. In a word, the key difference lies in the intensity of pressure applied.
