Thai Yoga Massage
Discover this ancient and unique healing bodywork therapy. It combines Yoga and Buddhist philosophies, yoga postures, Ayurvedic principles and martial arts moves culminating in a comprehensive full-body treatment. Relax and rejuvenate while the practitioner mindfully and with metta (loving kindness) moves your body through a series of yoga postures. You will receive assisted, or passive stretches, as the energy lines of the subtle body are worked providing you with both a physical and energy body massage. This work is traditionally done on a mat on the floor, fully clothed. If getting to and from the floor is challenging for the receiver, the work can be done on a table or received from a seated chair position.
The benefits of receiving Thai Yoga Massage are many and listed here are a few:
* Relieves muscular tension and spasm
* Reduces stress & anxiety helping induce a calmer mental state
* Improves flexibility, circulation and energy flow * Balances the energy body
* Boosts the immune system
* Facilitates an overall sense of well-being
Thai Yoga Massage should be practised in the spirit of metta as it is a principle component of this body of work. To learn more about metta, please see the info sharing page.
