Swedish Massage in Thekkady
The classic, and the best place to start
The classic oil massage: long, flowing strokes at gentle to medium pressure. The best first massage.
Long, flowing strokes with oil over the whole body, with light kneading to loosen tight spots. Gentle to medium pressure, and easy to adjust as you go.
Who it suits
First-time guests, travellers who want to rest, and anyone who prefers gentle to medium pressure.
Not the right choice if
Anyone who wants a very firm massage (choose Deep Tissue or Sports) or a dry massage with no oil (choose Thai).
Good to know
- Arrive 10 minutes early so we can talk through pressure and any areas to avoid.
- Tell us about injuries, pregnancy or medical conditions when you book, so our consulting physiotherapist can advise.
- 3-hour cancellation notice; late cancellations are charged 50%, no-shows in full.

Swedish or Aroma Therapy?
