Thai massage
Recognised as an alternative form of therapy practised worldwide and with a history of over 2,500 years, Thai massage combines deep tissue massage with yoga-inspired acupressure and stretching.
Based on the idea that the human body is criss-crossed by energy lines or channels, by applying pressure to different energy points, the therapist helps to release blockages and restore energy flow throughout the body, which promotes healing, pain relief and relaxation. To apply pressure to specific points on the body, the therapist uses the hands, feet, elbows and knees.
Benefits:
By stimulating energy points, the body’s natural healing process is activated. The immediate effects are primarily physical: relief from chronic pain caused by arthritis or back pain, improved flexibility and range of motion. Thai massage improves circulation, reduces inflammation, boosts the immune system, reduces stress and anxiety and can help improve sleep quality, reduce symptoms of depression and achieve an emotional state of calm, balance and inner peace.
Duration: 60 or 90-minute sessions.
