Thai massage

Thai massage is an ancient art of body therapy for healing and transformation.  It is an interactive manipulation of the body using passive stretching and gentle pressure along ten major energy lines in the body. Sessions typically last one hour and a half.  The effect is uniquely relaxing as well as energizing.  It is done in a quiet meditative atmosphere, helping the mind to return to calm alertness.  It is a detoxifying massage since  tension and toxic waste products are released from the joint, muscles and connective tissue.  The energy is stimulated by pressure on peripheral reflex points.  It is a whole and total approach to wellness.

• Adjusting the skeletal structure
• Increasing flexibility
• Relieving muscular and joint tension
• Stimulating internal organs
• Balancing the body’s energy system
