Traditional Thai massage has been practised in more or less its present form for more than 1,000 years . It is part of the family of oriental techniques based on the healing theory of intrinsic energy flows and energy balance, similar to the Chinese massage Tui Na, Indian ayurvedic manipulation based massage and the Japanese Shiatsu massage. An obvious Indian influence of yoga stretching and breathing but also the careful use of energy channels – the method is called Sen – is noticeable. In today’s words, traditional Thai massage removes the feeling of fatigue, muscle convulsions and nerve strain, stimulates blood and lymphatic circulation, and makes muscles, joints and tendons loose and flexible.

Massages are given by qualified Thai therapists, who have many years’ experiences working in foreign spa resorts and physiotherapy facilities.
