Swedish Massage in Beverley

A Swedish massage is a good way to alleviate stress levels and help detoxify the body. The Swedish body massage improves circulation, skin tone and elasticity, boosts immunity and encourages better sleep. It has also shown to be helpful in reducing pain and joint stiffness.

The five basic strokes of Swedish massage are effleurage (sliding or gliding), petrissage (kneading), percussion (rhythmic tapping), friction (cross fiber) and vibration (shaking).

Therapists use massage oils to facilitate effleurage, a series of circular massage strokes made with the palm of the hand to promote relaxation, ease muscle tension and warm up the muscle before deep tissue work using petrissage. Effleurage can be firm or light – do not hesitate to state your preference for pressure - and works as a pump on the body to encourage venous and lymphatic return. Petrissage are massage movements that include some deeper work - kneading, wringing, skin rolling, pick-up-and-squeeze and (sometimes) tapping - on areas of specific muscle tension, a session usually lasts for 60 minutes.

Beverley

The Beverley Guildhall Museum has a long and interesting history in its own right at the centre of the community. It was the traditional seat of power for the government of the town from the 15th century until the late 20th century. The museum that is housed within the building is dedicated to telling the story of the history of the town, and contains many great historical artefacts. Another historic site that can be found in Beverley is the Beverley Minister, founded by St. John of Beverley c.700. The building that sits there now is the third one and dates back to 1220. It continues to fulfil its function as a place of worship and parish church to some 17,000 people in the town. Beverley Minister is also reputedly where Henry V came to give thanks after the battle of Agincourt. As far as going out for a fun filled evening is concerned, there are some good pubs and bars to visit such as The Cornerhouse, Green Dragon, Hodgsons, The Queens Head, The Windmill and more.
