What is definitely Thai Massage?

Thai massage is recognized by various names. It is often known as Thai yoga massage. In Thai massage, the therapist makes use of hands, knees, legs and feet and various yoga postures are simulated. To put it differently, the practitioner does the yoga for you.

Thai massage is a blend of yoga, acupressure, joint mobilization and muscle manipulation. Thai massage sessions are performed on a mat on the floor or ground. In other Asian therapies, herbs and other oils are normally used, but in Thai massage sessions no oil is used.

The client who wants Thai massage is asked to wear loose-fitting and comfortable clothes. A typical Thai massage session lasts anywhere from an hour to two hours.

The advantages of getting Thai massage are many. First of all, Thai yoga massages relax the whole body because yoga postures are performed through the massage session stretching and relaxing the muscles. Right after the session, one feels totally relaxed and a sense of serenity.
