Traditional Thai Massage may very well be the most effective therapeutic bodywork you will ever experience.
Thai Massage is a modern expression of a 2500-year-old tradition of Oriental bodywork.
Thai massage uses the whole body to treat the whole body. Thai massage is really a deep, full-body treatment, starting at the feet and progressing up to the head. Using a sequence of gentle, flowing exercise movements of the joints and the muscles, the recipient’s body is moved, loosened, and stretched (some stretch applications linked to Yoga). This unique type of massage influences the energetic side. It restores the flow of energy throughout the body with applied acupressure on the energy (“sen” in Thai) lines of the body, aimed at harmonizing and energizing.
Thai massage is more energizing and increases movement more than classic forms of massage. The therapist uses his or her hands, knees, legs, and feet to move you into a series of yoga-like stretches. Thai massage is varied to suit a wide range of physical needs and is often used as a form of therapy to help increase range of motion and muscular strength, open joints, and increase blood flow.
Thai massage works with the body’s movement potential and energy system and is practiced dynamically on a mat on the floor. This allows for movements of the muscle that are more effective. Thai massage has proven particularly helpful to persons who suffer from a wide range of illnesses, including Multiple Sclerosis and Fibromyalgia.
