What
to Expect
You
will be lying on a soft mat on the floor, fully clothed in loose,
comfortable clothing and no oils are used in the massage.
Because
of its foundation in Yoga and because it was mainly performed
in temples in Thailand, Thai Massage's most essential component
is the meditative or aware mind. I apply direct, conscious pressure
to the body in a way that I can feel where you hold the most tension,
where the energy flow is blocked and where the body is hot, cold
or has a weak or strong pulse. I then use pressure, the manipulation
of soft tissue and yoga-like stretches to release the tight muscles,
returning blood flow and heat back to the area. And because of
it's ingenious focus on ergonomics, I am able to easily deepen
or lighten the pressure using my own body weight.
The
Thai Massage Flow
Like yoga, thai massage also has a flow. The sequence and how
the pressure and stretch are applied depends on what the body
needs. The movement is a rhythmic, rocking motion whichIn fact,
in some moves, I will use my bodyweight to counterbalance your
body with my own in order to easily lift you or move you into
a stretch.
