Swedish massage is one of the most popular massage treatments in the UK because of its broad benefits. Regular sessions can help reduce stress and anxiety, ease tight muscles, improve circulation, support better sleep, and lift overall mood. It's the ideal choice if you're looking for relaxation rather than the firm pressure of a deep tissue massage.
All treatments take place at Dragonfly Skin Day Spa, Unit 7A Central Arcade, Leeds LS1 6DX. Book online via our Schedule Your Visit button, via WhatsApp, or call 0113 244 0388.
Our Signature Body Ritual is available as 60 or 90 minutes. Most guests choose 90 minutes for full coverage including back, legs, arms, neck and scalp. Allow 10 minutes extra for arrival and consultation.
Swedish massage at Dragonfly Skin starts from £95 for 60 minutes and £135 for 90 minutes. Gift cards are available, and you can book online or by phone.
Swedish massage uses lighter, flowing strokes for relaxation and stress relief. Deep tissue massage uses firmer pressure to release chronic muscle tension. Choose Swedish if you want relaxation; choose deep tissue if you have specific knots or tight areas needing focused work.
Both use slow, flowing strokes. Aromatherapy adds essential oils chosen on the day to support how you're feeling - calming, energising or balancing. Swedish massage focuses purely on the technique and pressure of the massage itself.
Yes, Swedish massage is the most popular choice for first-time clients. The pressure is gentle to medium, the techniques are universally relaxing, and there's no learning curve. It's the ideal introduction to massage therapy.
Standard Swedish massage is not recommended during pregnancy. We offer a dedicated pregnancy massage instead, which uses safe positioning and modified techniques, please book that treatment if you're expecting.
Arrive 5–10 minutes early. Avoid heavy meals and alcohol beforehand. Tell your therapist about any injuries, areas of tension, or medical conditions at the start of the session. Drink plenty of water afterwards.

EXCELLENT Based on 428 reviews Posted on Google MenceTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a fantastic massage with Nerissa recently and couldn’t recommend her more. She immediately picked up on how tense I was (her words: “your whole body is tense”,fair enough, haha) and worked through the knots with real skill and care. Left feeling loose, relaxed, and honestly like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders literally. Great attention to detail and a lovely, calming presence throughout. Will definitely be booking again!Posted on Google Erica MarasiganTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Went there for a couple’s Swedish massage and they really looked after us very well while we were there. The massages done by Tetiana and Nerissa were amazing and relaxing and would definitely go back there again.Posted on Google Halle AfflickTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing massage from Tetiana. My 3rd time here and have loved each one!Posted on Google Robert GregoryTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Rhegan was great!Posted on Google Rebecca BarhamTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I booked in for the Head, Neck & Scalp Ritual and it was such a lovely treat! Nerissa explained the service to me beforehand, so I knew what to expect, and I left feeling relaxed and looked after. Thank you!Posted on Google KwameTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I booked a massage for my wife’s birthday and she had a wonderful time. Barbora, the massage therapist, was incredibly lovely and gentle, always checking in to ensure I was comfortable. The facilities were spotlessly clean and aesthetically pleasing. The product she used on my face left me feeling moisturised and rejuvenated. Kristine, the friendly and hospitable receptionist, greeted us warmly and took the time to explain everything. I’ll definitely be back soon. Edit: After three months, I returned to this spa for a facial. I’d had a facial a few years ago but nothing like this. The therapist explained the entire process beforehand and during the treatment. It was incredibly relaxing; the soothing decor and background music made me doze off a few times. It was an amazing experience.Posted on Google Charlie ArundellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an absolutely amazing Indian head massage with Nerissa. The hot oil felt so nourishing, and it relieved so much physical and emotional stress in my neck and shoulders. I left the salon feeling so relaxed, energized, and ready for a good night’s sleep. I highly recommend Nerissa, I have booked a full body massage with her for my next treatment.Posted on Google Joanne ConnellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was my first visit to Dragonfly Day Spa. The staff were very friendly and put me at ease. I had the HydraFacial- it was wonderful. Natasha explained everything and was very professional. Thank you so much. I hope to be back soon. Update: I had another hydrafacial as a treat from my partner as I loved the first one so much. This time Tetiana was my therapist. She was wonderful- very professional and welcoming. I highly recommend Dragonfly Spa. Lovely staff, calming atmosphere and such a beautiful space.Posted on Google Danielle PotterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a wonderful ‘back release ritual’ experience today with Nerissa. She was so friendly, made sure I was comfortable throughout and the massage itself was amazing! Such a gorgeous little gem in Leeds city centre. Highly recommend!Posted on Google Chelsea HazlettTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely beautiful spa with a relaxing atmosphere. Nerissa was amazing, professional and she always checked that I was comfortable throughout my massage. The treatment was perfect!
