What is Traditional Thai Massage?

Thai Yoga Massage, also known well as Thai Massage, is a 2,500-Year-old Ayuvedic body science that was developed and popularised by Buddha’s physician, Jivaka Kumar Bhaccha. A trained Thai Yoga Massage Therapist stretches a person with specific assisted yoga poses.

The Philosophy behind Thai Yoga massage techniques focuses on energy points called “Sen”. As the Thai Massage Therapist Stretches, pushes, and massages the participant along the Sen lines or points.

What Techniques are used with Thai Massage?

During the massage, the body is compressed, pulled, stretched, and rocked to clear energy blockages and relieve tension. The practitioner uses thumbs, palms, forearms, elbows, knees, and feet to create a dance of movement on the body. In this process, joints are opened, muscles and tendons are stretched, internal organs are toned, and energy is balanced.

You should wear loose-fitting clothing such as cotton tops and trousers for the entire duration of the massage.
This is a non-oil floor-based treatment where you will lie on a comfy mattress.
The practitioner will utilise their hands, thumbs, elbows, and knees to stretch, pull and rock different body parts. They may even sit on you to stretch you into certain positions.
It can involve yoga-like movements with the practitioner holding or pulling you to maintain a pose.
If your body muscles are sore or tense, there will be discomfort; if you are recovering from a previous injury or some part of your body is particularly sensitive to pain. Make the practitioner aware before the session begins
