Thai massage is a form of traditional therapy that integrates acupressure techniques, principles from Indian Ayurveda, and supported yoga postures in its practice. It is different from other techniques as the patient lays on the floor and actively participates in the bodywork.

Sometimes referred to as ‘assisted yoga’, gentle pressure is applied, with stretching incorporated to improve flexibility and circulation as well as promote whole-body relaxation.

There are many other health benefits including improving energy levels, aiding in achieving deep and restorative sleep, reducing stress levels, and boosting the immune system.

Thai massage has also been known to alleviate headaches, decrease back pain, reduce joint stiffness and discomfort, enhance range of motion, and soothe anxiety.

Massage has always been a great way to get the blood pumping. Thai massage in particular works wonders with its yoga-like stretches that fill the body’s tissues with oxygen, promoting both physical and mental well-being.
