« What is Thai Massage? | Posted on 04/10/2009 03:23 pm by Julia RymutThai Massage Offers Many Benefits
If you asked me to explain the benefits of Thai massage in just 10 seconds, I would say, “It feels great!” After a Thai massage, I have felt light, taller, settled and euphoric. I have clients tell me that they really enjoyed it, but often, they have no words. They are relaxed and calm, and not inclined to talk. They feel whole.
The purpose of Thai massage is to promote the free and unrestricted circulation of “Life Energy” throughout the whole body by stretching and opening the joints, the muscles and the Sen lines.
