Thai Yoga Bodywork
Thai Yoga Bodywork is a 2500 year old practice from Asia that combines
penetrating massage and gentle yogic movements into a profound healing
system. It incorporates many important healing traditions, including yoga,
Tai Chi, the Thai pressure point system, and the Thai energy line system.
The Lotus Palm method employs a form of Thai massage designed specifically
for Westerners in its integrated approach to body, mind and spirit. With graceful
flowing transitions between asana-like yoga postures, the bodywork will leave
you feeling deeply nourished, relaxed, and filled with energy.
Thai Yoga Benefits
According to Ayurvedic science, there is an extensive network of energy lines
running throughout the body. It is through the massaging and stretching of this
network of energy lines that Thai Yoga Bodywork releases tension.
By allowing energy to flow more freely, the massage works to alleviate
problematic conditions such as lower back pain, arthritis, headaches, digestive
difficulties, menstrual problems, and stress-related conditions.
Bringing about this free flow of energy also works to restore balance and create
a deep state of harmony and well-being.
Frequently Asked Questions
What should I Wear?
Thai Yoga Bodywork is much like a dance performed between the bodyworker
and the recipient. The session is conducted on a mat on the floor and requires
freedom of movement. Wear loose, comfortable clothing.
How often should I get Thai Yoga Bodywork?
As often as you like! Think of it as a really gentle yoga session. Many people
do it once a month for maintenance and as often as three times a week.
