~What is Thai Massage? ~
Thai Massage is Completed on a Thai Mat on the Floor or on a Massage Table. Whichever way is chosen, the client is fully clothed and wearing non see-through stretchy or loose fitting, long legged pants and long or short sleeved T-shirt.
Thai Applications
I will be using of my hands, fingers, forearms, elbows, knees and feet and may include traction, compression, stretching, positional poses and body positioning. With Thai Massage you may be laying on your back, your stomach, your sides or seated. During your session, I may rock or jostle you gently to relax your muscles and body for better release of the many areas and tissues of the body between slow and fluid stretching and poses or positions. Acupressure also plays apart of this type of massage as I compress along the energy lines of the body. |
Thai Bodywork
Whether it is called Thai Bodywork, Thai Massage or Thai Yoga Massage, this form of bodywork helps muscular and structural problems from old or new injuries astonishingly well and can be an up-lifting boost for the entire body. *For Thai Massage you will be wearing your own clean, non see-through, stretchy or loose fitting long legged pants with long or short sleeved shirt. No shorts or tank tops please.
Thai Pressure and Stretching
Depends on the condition of your tissues and your comfort level, I am quite capable with realizing and finding your limits, however, it is always your responsibility to tell your therapist if at any time during your bodywork appointment, you are in discomfort. Adjustments are continuously being made to better fit your comfort levels. |
~What are the Benefits of Thai Massage? ~
The work we will do together will improve your range of motion and your flexibility, increase circulation, break up adhesions from old or new injuries and surgeries, decrease stress and chronic or acute pain. In many instances, people find that pain is no longer a part of their daily lives. Many people find this form of bodywork brings balance to the body's mobility functions, range of motion and the energy lift they experience throughout the body’s systems. The level and depth of pressure may at times be slightly uncomfortable but at no time is the body ever forced into a position, a stretch or a prolonged position that it is not yet ready to accept or accomplish.
As with any new activity, there must be a starting point and we will work together to discover where that is based on the condition of your body’s level of flexibility and the condition of the tissues. We will communicate during each session and continue to adjust the bodywork as your body advances in it’s state of health, flexibility and with your desired outcome goals in mind. I can also teach and show you how to continue working with your body between our sessions for maintenance and continued benefits for improvement. I respect the individuality in each body of each person I work with and I am professionally experienced and intuitively skilled enough to adjust to the needed work and applications of my clients.
