(TTM-Traditional Thai Massage) or Thai yoga therapy is an ancient healing art.

The Thai practitioner uses his thumb, palm, elbow, knee and foot pressure, combined with gentle yoga based stretches to stimulate and balance the energy flow and release blockages, leading to increased vitality and well being. Thai massage is traditionally performed with the recipient fully clothed, lying on a comfortable massage mat.

To get the full benefit of Thai massage, a full 90-120 minutes full body treatment is applied, it can also be a therapy to treat a broad range of physical discomforts and stress related disorders. It is effective in treating headaches, shoulder and upper back tensions, joint and soft tissue injury, digestive upsets, insomnia and anxiety. The focus here is balance of the body, mind and spiritual aspects of the individual. The Thai practitioner works on the network of energy lines, called SEN, that distribute the life energy throughout the body.

If any of these energy lines become blocked, illness sets in.

Employing the tools of his/her feet, arms, hands, elbows and knees, the Thai practitioner will work along these energy lines to get rid of these blockages using pressure point techniques and intricate movements of gentle rocking, deep stretching and compression.

It is best not to eat a heavy meal 2 – 3 hours before the massage. Wear loose comfortable clothing, e.g. track suit pants, t-shirt. 

Advise the practitioner if menstruating, pregnant or if you have any medical/physical problems, prior to the massage.
