Course overview

Thai massage is an ancient healing manual technique that uses assisted stretching, assisted yoga positions, compression, rocking and pulling to improve mobility, posture, circulation, lymphatic flow and overall relaxation. Techniques: In Thai Yoga bodywork we use the hands, elbows, knees, and feet to apply pressure and perform stretches. Part of session is guided yoga-like poses to achieve deeper stretches and fascia and muscle relief. Benefits: Thai massage can help with back and neck pain, headaches, stress, anxiety, digestion, and much more. It can also improve muscle and nerve function through releasing tight muscles and fascia. Thai massage is also known as Thai Yoga massage. It's based on the idea that the body has 10 main energy lines, called sen lines, and that the massage focuses on opening and releasing energy through these lines. This course will show 4 body positions for the client; supine, prone, seated and side with sample Thai bodywork techniques for each. Table and alternatively futon will be used in this class. This is an in-person Continuing Education Course.
