Traditional Thai Massage
Consider Traditional Thai Massage if:
You often feel tired and “stale”, like you just can’t get moving. It is as if your blood and body’s energy just aren’t moving.
You want to improve your physical fitness, whether your priority is strength, cardio fitness or flexibility
You have mild to moderate osteoarthritis, low back pain, or another issue that causes joint pain and stiffness.
You frequently experience brain fog throughout the day, and nothing seems to improve it (not even coffee!). For example, you may feel disengaged from the world, or unable to express yourself or be creative
Your mood is often flat, or anxious.
You aren’t comfortable with massage styles that require you to take your clothes off.
Bassage Body & Mind proudly offers a traditional Thai massage experience, with great results in improving energy and mental clarity. All of our services end with a head massage, to spread these energising benefits throughout your body and prevent issues related to energy stagnation such as tension headache.
What to expect from traditional Thai massage?
Traditional Thai massage is very different from European styles such as Swedish massage. For this style, you are lying on a floor mat while wearing loose clothing – in other words, you don’t need to undress. At Bassage Body & Mind, we focus on any specific issues that you request treatment for and emphasize slow stretching. We also do not use any oil.
Thai massage comes from ancient healing theory and practice, including acupressure point systems and Indian therapies such as yoga. The stretching, pulling, and rocking techniques all help to release tension and harmonise your body’s energetic systems. It also improves your physical energy levels, and boosts blood flow to your muscles and connective tissues. This can help to prevent trigger points from forming.
The therapeutic touch of traditional Thai massage
Research supports these benefits of Traditional Thai massage.
For example, a study on people complaining of fatigue found that Thai massage significantly improved energy levels. Volunteers noticed they felt rejuvenated after treatment and were more mentally stimulated. At Bassage Body & Mind, clients often feel like they have been reborn after a Thai massage.
These benefits could extend to athletic performance, too. Another trial on soccer players tested three sessions of Thai massage with rest as the comparison, and found a number of improvements. The sit and reach, push-ups, sit-ups, hand grip strength, 40 yards technical agility, 50-meter sprint, and oxygen capacity were all significantly improved.
