What is Thai Massage
Thai Massage, also called Nuad Bo-Rarn, has been taught and practiced in Thailand for approximately twenty-five hundred years. Although the origins are somewhat vague, credit for Thai Massage is given to a famous Indian doctor, Shivago Komarpaj, who was the personal physician of the Buddha and Magadha king.
During Thai Massage, pressure is applied on energy lines and points of the body and combined with a large variety of stretching movements. Pressure is exerted with the thumbs, feet and palms of the hand. At some points, elbows are also used. The pressure and stretching movements are combined in a comprehensive strategy that can be performed in a one-hour session. Two hours, however, is frequently considered the ideal time for a thorough and complete Thai Massage.
Thai Massage is best practiced on a firm Thai mat on the floor instead of on a massage table. The Thai mat allows for many movements and procedures that are not practical or effective in table work, or are simply impossible to perform. The mat allows for the most effective use of the practitioner's body weight rather than using muscular force for the transmission of pressure and energy. This preferred method creates a highly therapeutic effect.
Services
Thai Traditional
Our most popular massage, Traditional Thai Massage, uses pressure and stretching movements to reduce stress levels and improve overall circulation and relaxation. Practiced on a firm Thai mat, no oils are used. The client remains fully clothed except for the feet. Wear light and loose clothes to allow for flexible movement.
Thai Deep Tissue ( Add-ons)
This treatment combines the best of both worlds. Bending Thai pressure point massage and gentle stretching with a flowing deep tissue massage, it targets sore muscles, and invites the feeling of complete inner calmness. Note: You may experience some stiffness or soreness after this massage for a while, since it concentrates on pressure points with strong deep strokes that help to release built-up tension in overworked muscles.
