THE ART AND PRACTICE OF THAI MASSAGE

Essential Elements

Thai massage is an ancient healing art that incorporates acupressure, yoga, and deep tissue elements.  It has been used for centuries by Thai Royalty and everyday farmers to relieve stress, aid energy flows, and promote relaxation.  Today, Thai massage is becoming popular around the world for its deep stretching and yogic approach to improving your body and spirit.  There are five key elements of Thai massage that promote complete healing of the mind, body, and spirit:

  •     Meditation
  •     Yoga
  •     Reflexology
  •     Acupressure
  •     Stretching


Benefits of Thai Massage

Thai Massage offers many benefits for your body and spirit.  Beyond relieving pain and muscle tension, Thai Massage facilitates relaxation, clears your energy flow, stimulates the nervous system, increases flexibility, improves blood circulation, and rejuvenates your body.  It differs from traditional oil massage techniques in that the benefits last long after the massage.  Participating in regular Thai Massage is considered an essential part of a healthy lifestyle in Thailand. 


The Practice of Thai Massage

Unlike many other types of massage, Thai massage is more active and seeks to achieve objectives beyond basic relaxation.   Recipients are fully clothed and lay on a wide, thin mattress that allows the practitioner to move freely.  Using thumbs, feet, palms, forearms, elbows, and knees, the massage practitioner applies pressure and assists in yoga stretches to stimulate energy flow and movement.  Techniques include rhythmic muscle compression, assisted yoga positions, and targeted pressure along energy lines (“sen”).  



Who Can Benefit from Thai Massage

Everyone can benefit from Thai Massage.  Because it is a practice focused on realigning your energy flows within your body, it is particularly helpful for those individuals with chronic pain or discomfort.
