Remedial massage is the clinical side of massage, it is learned to address muscular/skeletal dysfunctions. Swedish/general body massage is what was taught in the health spar environment to give someone a general relaxing full body massage, but not to address specific dysfunctions.

Nicely worded, Paul. Remedial usually comes after Swedish / Holistic as it is more in depth, from a learning perspective.
