Thai Massage
Thai massage is an ancient healing system that combines acupressure,
massage, and stretching into the therapy. It uses no oil, lotion, or cream.
The recipient wears loose fitted cloths and lies on a firm mattress and rather
than rubbing on muscles, the therapist will actually use their hands, knees,
legs, and feet to move your body into various positions.
Thai Massage, often called Thai Yoga Massage, is an energy and bodywork
practice that originated in Thailand and is considered part of Traditional
Thai Medicine. It appears to have been influenced by Buddhist, Indian and
Chinese traditional practices. Thai Massage incorporates aspects of energy
work, acupressure, and yoga traditions.

yoga-like positions helps in reducing your stress level, calms the mind and body, and
promotes a more restful sleep.
- Flexibility: This will enhance the person's flexibility allowing for a
greater range of motion. This greater range of motion and flexibility reduces muscle stress and strain.
-
Blood circulation: Make blood vessels stretch, increases blood flow to strengthen the organ
function in the body thoroughly and lower the chances of blood clotting in the arteries. With increased
circulation, more oxygen will be brought to the brain. This will also lower the number of migraines
and headaches the individual suffers from.
