What is Thai Yoga Massage?
 |
Thai Yoga Massage is a part of the traditional healing system of Thailand. Practiced by Buddhist monks for the last 2500 years, it was first introduced in the United States in 1990. Its ancient origins are linked to Yoga, Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine. Thai Yoga Massage is an expression of "metta" compassion toward oneself and others. Thai Yoga Massage is a combination of gentle rocking, range of motion, passive stretching and gentle pressure along energy lines or "sen lines". Thai Yoga Massage sessions take place on a mat while the client is in comfortable clothing and it looks like a graceful dance between the client and the practitioner, promoting relaxation and well being for both. Each session incorporates proper breathing to assist in the relaxation and releasing of muscular blocks. Joints are loosened and opened through manipulation and peripheral stimulation, muscles are stretched, internal organs are toned, vitality is increased and a deep state of relaxation can be achieved. Thai Yoga Massage is traditionally done in 1.5 hour sessions, but a well-rounded session can be done in as little as 1 hour.
