Thai Traditional Massag

 

A legend says that the founder of traditional Thai massage, Shivago Komarpaj, was the personal physician of Buddha, and this unique massage was created as a form of therapeutic healing. It is no surprise that Thai massage traditions date back more than 2,000 years and are deeply intertwined with Indian, Chinese, and Southeast Asian cultures and rituals.

Traditional Thai massage is one of the oldest and most effective body therapies, aimed at restoring inner harmony and improving overall physical well-being. With roots dating back thousands of years, its benefits are recognized worldwide.

During the massage, the therapist uses palms, forearms, feet, and the entire body’s strength to activate the flow of vital energy, open more than a hundred “marma” energy points, and promote deeper relaxation. This massage not only relieves muscle tension but also provides complete physical and mental harmony.

It is highly recommended for individuals with a fast-paced, sedentary lifestyle, those experiencing constant tension, or those looking to improve their well-being. Regular Thai massage helps reduce muscle stiffness, eliminate accumulated toxins, and restore the body's natural energy.

Since ancient times, Thai massage has been practiced for its therapeutic rather than purely relaxing effects:

• Stimulates metabolism and capillary circulation.

• Helps with digestive disorders, headaches, muscle, and joint pain.

• Improves spinal and joint flexibility, relieving stiffness.

• Awakens sexual energy.

• Strengthens the immune system.

• Removes accumulated impurities, salts, and toxins, encouraging the body to combat illnesses and various disorders.

• Increases body flexibility, reduces pain, and alleviates muscle tension.

Thai massage is particularly beneficial in colder climates, as muscles contract due to cold, leading to stiffness over time.

The intensity of the therapist’s movements depends on each client’s individual condition, which is assessed before the session.

After a traditional Thai massage, you will feel reborn – your body will feel light, and your mind will be at peace. It is a true journey to inner harmony and well-being.

Notably, improvements can be felt after the first session, but depending on the individual’s condition, the massage should be repeated 3–5 times with 2–3 day intervals. Daily sessions are not recommended.

Traditional Thai massage is performed on a mattress while wearing specially designed clothing. No oil is used during the session.
