Thai
or Acu-Yoga
integrates acupressureand yoga.
Both relax muscular tension and balance the vital life
forces
of the body. Each Acu-Yoga posture naturally presses and
stretches certain nerves, muscles, and acupressure
points, awakening the
meridians and releasing the tension in the points so
that energy (chi)
can circulate freely.
Thai massage is
more energizing and rigorous than more classic forms
of massage.
Thai massage is also called Thai yoga massage,
because the therapist uses his or her hands, knees,
legs, and feet to move you into a series of
yoga-like stretches. Many people say Thai massage is
like doing yoga without any work.
Muscle compression, joint mobilization, and
acupressure are also used during treatment.
People describe Thai massage as both relaxing and
energizing.
Thai massage is usually done on a padded mat on the
floor.
No oil is applied, so you are fully dressed. You are
usually asked to bring or wear comfortable clothing
to the massage.
