Thai Yoga Massage

"The true practice of the at of healing - is the compassionate Intent of the healer".

Thai massage is a healing practice that has been practiced in Thailand for hundreds if not thousand of years, with the Influence of India & Chinese healing systems. The gentle free flowing art of the Thai Massage or Naud Bo-Ran in meaning sacred touch, uses rhythmical finger, thumb and hand press along the Sen lines ( or energy meridian lines ), as well as yoga like stretches. Commonly described in the west as "passive yoga" Thai yoga massage is different from the western massages, as there is is no oil or couch used it is instead fully clothed massages on a mattress on the floor. In Thailand tradition healers saw the illness as an imbalance of energy, and treatment would take a holistic approach to treat not just the Body, but also the Citta (mind) and spirit.

"Thanks again for the thai massage. I have been able to do relaxing/meditating and yoga/stretching work on my spine and middle back… well, all of me really..... which I have not been able to do since my hand was so badly mashed, so not for around 7 years"
