What is Thai Massage?
How Can Reflexology Help You?
Thai massage, also known as Thai yoga massage, is a traditional healing practice that has its roots in ancient India and is widely practiced in Thailand. It combines elements of acupressure, assisted stretching, and deep tissue massage to release tension and improve overall well-being.
​
In a Thai massage, the recipient is usually fully clothed and lies down on a mat on the floor. The therapist then uses their hands, thumbs, elbows, and feet to apply pressure to various points on the body, while also guiding the recipient through a series of yoga-like stretches.
​
Thai massage is believed to work by stimulating the flow of energy through the body's energy pathways, known as Sen lines, and by promoting relaxation and a sense of well-being. It can be particularly effective in relieving muscle tension, reducing stress and anxiety, improving flexibility and range of motion, and boosting circulation.
​
Thai massage is often considered a holistic practice, as it seeks to balance the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of a person's well-being. It is also sometimes used in combination with other complementary therapies, such as meditation, herbal remedies, or aromatherapy, to enhance its overall benefits.
