Relaxation Massage in Sherwood Park, AB

Are you feeling overwhelmed physically and mentally? A relaxation massage at Gold Pro Massage and Wellness Studio in Sherwood Park is what you need!   

No matter what your stress level may be, our Registered Massage Therapists (RMTs) are here to help you unwind and feel refreshed, relaxed, and less tense.

What is a Relaxation Massage?

Relaxation massage (also known as Swedish massage) is a massage technique that uses light pressure, long strokes, and gentle kneading to ease away tension and leave you feeling completely relaxed.

How Relaxation Massage Helps You

Relieve Stress and Anxiety

As the RMT glides through your body with light pressure strokes and gentle kneading, your body starts to reduce cortisol levels, making you feel more balanced and at ease. 

Cortisol is the hormone that controls your stress level. 

Improve Circulation and Reduce Pain

Sore muscles or poor circulation are common issues. 

Relaxation massage helps people boost blood flow throughout their body to deliver oxygen to their muscles and tissues. It speeds up recovery, eases aches and pains, and even improves your energy levels.

Sleep Better and Feel Refreshed

Regular relaxation massage will improve your sleep by easing muscle tension, calming your mind, and putting your body in rest mode. You’ll wake up feeling refreshed.

Enhance Your Overall Well-being

This type of massage isn’t just about physical relief—it’s about feeling good on a deeper level. 

You’ll experience a renewed sense of well-being, with reduced tension, lower blood pressure, and a clearer mind.

Is Relaxation Massage Covered by Insurance?

What to Expect During Your Relaxation Massage

Personalized Care from Experienced Therapists

Our RMTs are skilled at providing personalized care tailored to your needs. Every session is crafted with your goals in mind, whether that’s relieving tension, managing pain, or simply relaxing. 

If you’re unsure what type of pressure or technique works best for you, our therapists will guide you through the process, ensuring you receive the most comfortable and effective treatment.

You’ll experience techniques like effleurage—long, sweeping strokes designed to warm up your muscles and increase circulation. 

Kneading (petrissage) is also used to loosen muscle tension and improve mobility. By the end of the session, you’ll feel deeply relaxed, with reduced muscle tension and a sense of calm that lasts long after your visit.

Is Relaxation Massage Right for You?

Relaxation massage is perfect for those who feel overwhelmed by their schedules or those dealing with mild pain or discomfort. 

Even if you’re new to massage therapy, this gentle process is an excellent place to start providing many health benefits.

If you’ve been experiencing chronic pain or want a massage that doesn’t focus on deep muscle manipulation, relaxation massage offers relief in a soothing, non-invasive way.

How Often Should You Get a Relaxation Massage?

The frequency of your massages will depend on your lifestyle and stress levels.  Many people benefit from getting a relaxation massage every two to four weeks. 

However, if you’re dealing with higher levels of stress or chronic pain, more frequent sessions are recommended. Your therapist will help you determine the best schedule based on your individual needs.
