Traditional Thai massage is done on a mat on the floor. There are no oils used and you are dressed in comfortable clothes. The massage practitioner uses thumbs, palms, forearms, elbows, feet, and knees to press and stretch your body. The movements are repetitive and flowing allowing the muscles to relax before the stretches.

Thai massage is never painful. It is soothing and creates a sense of well-being. It is a profound way of honoring the body.

Those with limited flexibility are challenged to move only within their range. You dictate how deeply or how far a movement is pushed and you are never pushed past the limits of your comfort.

Most musculo-skeletal pain and/or lack of mobility of the joints are the results of muscles that shorten due to repetitive strain.

The pressing techniques of Thai massage prepare muscles for stretching by opening the muscles to the flow of energies. The manipulations stretch the muscles a little more than would be possible if done alone.
Thai massage increases joint mobility and flexibility, improves circulation, tonifies organs, and relieves muscular and emotional tension.

You will be amazed at the degree of stretching your stiff body can achieve and how relaxed, refreshed, and much more flexible you feel after a session.

Effective sessions last 90 minutes. A weekly series of Thai bodywork can provide long lasting flexibility. Shorter sessions can be designed. Thai bodywork can also be incorporated into table massage where the stretches are blended with western massage.
