Swedish Massage for back & neck pain in Santa Barbara

Desk work, driving, and phones pull the head forward and lock the upper back and neck into a constant, low-grade ache. At Aura Thai Massage, swedish massage long, flowing strokes at a light-to-medium pressure — is one of the most effective ways to address it, and we welcome guests from Santa Barbara every week.

Why it works

How swedish massage eases back & neck pain

Targeted pressure and assisted stretching release the muscles that hold the spine and shoulders out of alignment, restoring movement and easing the referred pain that radiates from tight tissue.

Swedish massage uses long, gliding strokes, kneading, and gentle circular movement with oil, at a light-to-medium pressure. It's the most calming of the modalities, designed to quiet the nervous system as much as the muscles.

A small tip

Tell your therapist exactly where it hurts and how — the more specific you are, the more precisely the session is tuned.
