Thai Yoga Massage Training
Thai Yoga Massage is performed on the floor in loose and comfortable clothing. Receiving Thai Yoga Massage is like doing a yoga workout – but without any effort. This is why it is sometimes referred to as assisted yoga or yoga for lazy people!
A Thai Yoga Massage also incorporates rhythmic rocking, palming and thumbing along energy lines, compression techniques, gentle stretching and breath work, creating a slow flowing ‘dance’ around and with the recipient’s body. The practitioner uses their hands, feet, arms and legs to gently guide the recipient into various yoga postures. The more skilful and fluid the practitioner the more the recipient is able to relax.
Benefits of Thai Yoga massage for the receiver
In Thai massage, energy lines known as Sen lines are connected to pressure points (marmas). Massaging the Sen lines promotes the free flow of energy, it is through stretching and massaging this network of energy lines that Thai Yoga Massage releases tension, making the entire body more limber. Encouraging the flow of energy through the body helps alleviate common problems such as lower back pain, arthritis, headaches, digestive or menstrual problems and stress related conditions. Thai Yoga Massage also generates a feeling of deep relaxation and centredness for both the client and the practitioner.
