Our speciality: traditional Thai massage |
Traditional Thai massage is one of the discipline's great ancestral traditions, with techniques dating back more than 2,000 years. This method is inspired by Buddhism, and stimulates dynamism and the body's energy circulation to free tensions, resulting in a profound state of relaxation. The massage therapist follows the paths of the ten main energy meridians recognised in acupuncture. The result on the body is deep and long-lasting, and can be extremely stimulating or extremely relaxing according to the intensity of the treatment. Traditional Thai massage, which is carried out on the floor, without oil, combines muscle kneading, thumb pressure on energy points and meridians and numerous yoga-inspired stretching techniques. Thai massage is one of the "energetic" group of massages. It is suitable for those who do not suffer from any particular medical conditions. Thai essential oil massage The treatment is carried out on a massage table. It has similar effects to traditional Thai massage on energy meridians and points, but uses sliding movements with essential oils. The massage is slow and deep. It combines pressure techniques and smoothing of the energy meridians with stretching techniques. Our oil massages are carried out using natural, very high-quality Thai products produced by Harnn & Tann. Thai plantar reflexology Reflexology is based on the principle that the feet are a miniature representation of the human body, where each "reflex zone" corresponds to an organ or a part of the body. By applying the medium of touch to specific zones, tensions can be located and the balance of the body restored. The session involves a massage with oil and the stimulation of reflex zones situated on the arch of the foot using a wooden probe. |
