LOTUS - Thai Massage Therapy
Therapy:
A Traditional Thai Massage session is a full body treatment that can
last between 1 1/2 hrs and 3 hrs. Alternately, 1 hour
sessions
are available as well, although I recommend you start with the 1 1/2
hour session and consider a complete body massage of 2 hours.
Traditional
Thai Massage is performed on a mat on the floor for the best use of the
practitioner's body weight, rather than on a raised massage table. This
also allows for a variety of movements and procedures that are not
practical or effective on a raised massage tabled.Starting at the feet, moving up to the head, the receiver's body is massaged, moved, stretched and loosened throughout the four different positions: front, side, back and sitting. This enables the practitioner to perform a variety of massage and stretches techniques as well as working pressure points and muscles that are not easily accessible from a front position only. In Thai Massage, the use of weight and leverage is an important part. Rather than relying on muscular force or pressure alone, strength and balance come from the centre of the body, enabling the practitioner to conserve energy and use it in the most efficient way.
Working along the meridians (energy lines) with a combination of acupressure, joint manipulations, stretches and adjustments – not only releases knots, tention and energy blockages created by physical, mental and emotional stress, but actually drains the sick, unhealthy, stagnant energy out of the body, leaving the receiver free and energized. This technique is considered one of the deepest and most thorough full body massages.
