The art of Thai massage has been around for over 2000 years. Originally practiced by Buddhist monks in Indian temples, the art of Thai Massage spread through Thailand with the monks and became a part of everyday life. In contrast to other massage forms, Thai massage is a combination of yoga stretches, deep tissue massage and acupressure. Applied by the practioner through loose clothing, using palms, thumbs, elbows and even, wait for it.... feet!
Thai massage enables tight areas to be relaxed and stretched back into their normal natural state. Deep stress patterns can be unlocked with these techniques.
Depending on your personal preference the intensity of the massage can be varied. Our practitioner, Nok, will discuss your general health condition, and whether there are any specific problems or painful areas that need attention.
Nok – whose name means ‘Little Bird’ - is a graduate of the Wat Pho School of Thai Massage in Thailand.
