Traditional Thai Body Massage
Thai massage is a technique that has been passed down from the earliest times, refined and codified through the generations, evolving into the form it takes today. Its origins lie with respected Ayurvedic doctor, Shivago Komarpaj.
Traditional Thai massage is an age-old practice with a thousand year tradition in Thailand, originally developed in Thai temples at Wat-Po and enjoyed by Thai royalty.
Traditional Thai massage is based on pressure points along ten key energy lines of the body, which power all physical, mental and emotional processes. If there is an energy imbalance, the body's harmony is disrupted, causing pain and disease. Massaging along these key energy lines can break energy blockage, stimulate the circulation and restore general well-being. the massage therapist employs a variety of yoga stretches to improve range of motion and deep-pressure massage to stimulate circulation. Thai massage is intended to improve the energy flow throughout the body and allow you to become more connected to your body.
There are two types of traditional Thai massage:
Royal Thai massage was used in the Royal Palace. It is a Thai healing art and, in the past, was used only with the king and his relatives. The masseur or masseuse uses strong finger tips to apply deep pressure along key energy lines. Some may find this a bit intense but it provides the most therapeutic benefit to treat muscle tension and is very relaxing afterward.
Thai folk massage has been used between Thai people for a thousand years. Hands, palms, elbows, knees and feet are used with bending and stretching in yoga postures.
