Thai Yoga Massage, also known as Nuad Phaen Boran or “ancient healing touch”, is a form of bodywork that combines elements of yoga, acupressure and reflexology. It is an ancient practice which originated in Thailand over 2,500 years ago.

Thai Yoga Massage works by stimulating and stretching the muscles and other soft tissues in the body through gentle compressions and passive stretching techniques. These techniques help to improve circulation and lymphatic drainage, reduce stress and tension, increase flexibility and range of motion in joints.

Trained therapists who specialize in traditional Thai massage perform Thai yoga massage. In order to become certified in this field, therapists must complete a specialized training program.

The benefits of Thai Yoga massage include improved circulation and lymphatic drainage as well as increased flexibility in joints and muscles. It can also help reduce stress levels, alleviate pain and discomfort, improve posture, boost vitality and provide relaxation for both body & mind.

It's recommended to arrive at least 15 minutes prior to your appointment time so that you can complete a short client intake form. Also wear comfortable clothing that will allow your practitioner to work their best magic!

During the session your therapist will use their hands, feet, elbows or knees to apply pressure throughout your body with different techniques such as compression along energy lines (Sen lines) kneading your muscles & gentle stretches & rotations of limbs. You may also be asked to breathe deeply while lying on the mat or table while they move your limbs into various positions as part of assisted yoga style postures/stretches (passive movement). All movements are done with respect for your level of comfort & you are encouraged to communicate any points where touch may be too uncomfortable or deep for you.

After your session it's important to drink plenty of water & nourish yourself with some natural whole foods such as fruits, vegetables & light proteins like eggs or nuts if desired - all these will assist with rehydrating the body after massage & promoting healthy metabolism release toxins from the body safely & smoothly.
