Traditional Thai Massage is somewhat different than the type of massage familiar to most people. Unlike therapies performed on a massage table, Thai Massage is performed on a large floor mat and the recipient remains fully clothed. Your therapist begins each session by working the muscles of your feet, and then continues working with compression techniques and manipulation of acupressure points. The stretches, influenced by Yoga, lengthen and loosen muscles and are designed to balance and realign the body over a period of time. When combined, these techniques flow in a comforting rhythm that lets your body fall into a deep state of relaxation. Thai massage is a unique, ancient, and time-tested form of bodywork. Practitioners use their hands -- and also their elbows, feet and knees -- in order to facilitate an optimal release of stress and tension; this release is designed to balance and realign the body over a period of time.
