Swedish Massage

What comes to mind when you hear the word relaxation? A sunny afternoon by the pool with a glass of iced tea? A cozy fireside chat with good friends? Deep stretching and breathing in a yoga class?

For many people, massage is synonymous with relaxation. Experienced hands soothe aching muscles and the stress of everyday life melts away. A study conducted jointly by a massage therapy organization and a university medical school found that regular massage lowers levels of anxiety, depression, stress hormones and even blood pressure!

One of the most common questions our helpful front desk staff answer is “What kind of massage is right for me?” Most guests end up choosing Swedish massage, a combination of different techniques that soften tight muscles, increase blood flow to sore areas and calm the nervous system. Swedish massage can be done with gentle or firm pressure depending on your needs and preferences. Gentler pressure may be used around superficial veins or if you are looking for pure relaxation. Firmer pressure may be used to work out the kinks after a day full of hiking and exercise classes. You and your massage technician talk about what would be best before the massage begins, and adjust as you go if necessary. The Oaks has 17 talented massage technicians, waiting to get their hands on you!

Come to The Oaks at Ojai to relax. Soak up the southern California sun by the poolside, meet new friends by our lobby fireplace, stretch your tired muscles with Yoga Nidra and enjoy a massage anytime of day or right before bed.
