Traditional Thai Yoga massage is an ancient form of therapeutic healing. Its roots are in India from where it was brought to Thailand over 2000 years ago by Ayurvedic doctors and Buddhist monks.
SERVICES
Traditional Thai Yoga massage combines acupressure, energy balancing, stretching and applied yoga exercises. Traditional Thai Yoga massage is a unique and powerful massage therapy. As well as improving flexibility, relaxation and energy levels, a massage can relieve headaches, asthma, constipation, and frozen shoulders, improve flexibility for sports people, help recovery after a heart attack or stroke, provide exercise for the disabled - to mention only a few possibilities. Thai Yoga massage therapists are in demand for working with performance athletes, the disabled, stroke victims, and people wanting to reduce stress and improve energy levels.
COMMON QUESTIONS
How does it work?
The masseur uses hands, feet, elbows and knees to apply pressure along the energy lines of the body. This combined with gentle stretching and assisted yoga postures.
It is therefore, far deeper and more effective at realigning the body than a ‘skin-deep’ massage. Clients have noticed an overall increase in relaxation (both physical and mental), improved balance, greater flexibility and less aches and pains.
Are there any risks?
Thai massage is normally suitable for everyone, including the young and the very elderly. However, it should be avoided if you have osteoporosis, spinal fusions or phlebitis. If you have high blood pressure or heart problems, talk to your doctor before booking a treatment.
