Thai Massage
In Thai massage the therapist's hands are not all that is used to free tension from the recipient's body. Instead, interactive manipulation of the body is done using passive stretching and gentle pressure applied by the hands and feet.
Benefits can include:
- Adjusting the skeletal structure
- Relieve deep muscle tension
- Increase flexibility and joint mobility
- Balance the body's energy system
- Heighten mental clarity
- Stimulate internal organs
- Calm the mind
The client is fully dressed and lies on a light mattress placed on the floor. An ingenious system of movements allows the therapist to manipulate the client with little effort, designed to support the client as well as the therapist.
Thai massage can move deeper into the mechanical functions of the body, working with deep muscle tension and joint mobility as well as nerve, muscle and ligament balancing.
