Traditional yoga Thai massage
A traditional combination of acupressure, energy meridian work and yoga-like stretching.
About the practice
Pressure and stretch
Our Thai Yoga Massage combines assisted yoga-like stretches, gentle pressure and flowing movements to open the body, improve flexibility and release tension. Traditionally performed fully clothed on a comfortable floor mattress, it can also be adapted to the massage bed and combined with a little oil for a more relaxing experience.
Thai massage improves circulation, flexibility, muscle tone, and is the perfect complement to any exercise routine. It is most different from other forms of massage since there is no oil being used, the masseur uses a mattress on the floor (as opposed to a table), and you remain completely clothed throughout the massage.
Thai massage has sometimes been called “yoga massage”, or “yoga for lazy people”. This blend of acupressure and stretching is especially beneficial for those who find themselves stiff, sore, and tired from over-exertion in work or sports, or from arthritis or other debilitating diseases.
Thai massage enhances strength and flexibility, relaxes sore or tense muscles, and can help to recapture lost range of motion. By encouraging lymphatic function, this traditional deep tissue massage and stretching can also detoxify the body, heighten the immune system, and prevent disease or injury by promoting flexibility.
