Thai Yoga Massage

Hi All

I've been studying Thai Yoga Massage for the last 2.5 years & I've finally managed to finish the course & pass my written & practical exam which feels like a real achievement.


In case you're not familiar with Thai Yoga Massage,it is a bodywork & it has roots with Buddhism & originates in India & then was practiced in Thailand via Buddhist monks travelling between the two countries.

The treatment takes place on a futon, the client remains fully clothed throughout the session.

The treatments is intended to take approximately two hours and works on the entire body, from the feet to the head.
It includes hatha yoga based stretches, massage & energy line work.
There are ten Sen energy lines on the body & most of these will be worked on by the practitioner during the session.
The Sen energy lines are mostly found on the legs and on the back of the body.
This combination of yoga based stretches, energy line work & massage makes Thai Yoga Massage a very intriguing & amazing & unusual treatment.
In parts the treatment can be calm and relaxing and other sections are very dynamic and fast paced.


The intention of the treatment is to balance energy in the body from the feet to the head.
The practitioner's intention toward the client is to work intuitively with their body with 'loving kindness.'

The treatment works on the feet, the front of the body including the arms, chest, stomach & face.
It works on the side of the body also. There is also a section which takes place cross legged in a seated position.
There is a section which works on the back & neck and the back of the legs as well as the front of the legs.


The form of Thai Yoga Massage I have studied is Northern style which combines a lot of work on the legs as the Northern Thai's were field workers who benefited from this. However I can adapt treatments to suit each different individual & their individual bodily & emotional needs.


Although Thai Yoga Massage is usually a longer treatment often 2 hours I can do shorter treatments of 1 hour or 1.5 hours.
