Thai massage is a type of bodywork that originated in Thailand over 2,500 years ago. It is also known as Thai yoga massage, as it involves a combination of acupressure, stretching, and assisted yoga postures.

 

During a Thai massage session, you need to lie on a mat on the floor or on the bed while the massage therapist uses their hands, feet, elbows, and knees to apply pressure to various points on the body. The massage therapist may also use stretching and pulling movements to help you release tension and improve flexibility.

​

Thai massage is based on the concept of energy lines, or Sen lines, which are similar to the meridians in Chinese medicine. The benefits of Thai massage is to restore balance and harmony to the body by removing blockages and allowing the energy to flow freely.

Thai massage is known for its many benefits, including:

It is important to note that Thai massage can be quite vigorous, and may not be suitable for everyone. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional before trying Thai massage, especially if you have any pre-existing medical conditions.
