EXCERPTS:
"Sometimes known as Thai yoga massage, or traditional Thai massage, the technique combines gentle stretches, breathing practices, acupressure and soothing rocking. With a slow, flowing and meditative approach, the practitioner assists a fully-clothed recipient into a series of yoga-inspired postures, creating a delightfully harmonious and therapeutic dance.
"Thai massage helps increase awareness of your body, which often results in easier movement, improved posture and even injury prevention. Because it can release muscles deep in the body, it is often effective in reducing neck and shoulder pain, headaches and low back pain. It is used to support athletes preparing for and recovering from sporting events, and help patients recover faster from surgery."
