What is Thai Massage ?

Thai massage is believed to have been developed by Jivaka Kumar Bhaccha, physician to Buddha, more than 2,500 years ago in India.

 

It made its way to Thailand, where the Ayurvedic techniques and principles gradually became influenced by traditional Chinese medicine.

For centuries, Thai massage was performed by monks as one component of Thai medicine.

People describe Thai massage as both relaxing and energizing.

Thai massage is more energizing than any classic forms of massage.

 

Many people find that Thai massage has the following benefits:

  • reduces stress

  • improves circulation

  • increases energy

  • increases flexibility

  • improves range of motion

  • centers the mind and body

Additional tips
  • Don’t eat a heavy meal before the massage
