it is the effort to improve ourselves that is valuable.
There is no end to this practice."

What can Thai Massage do for you?
Thai massage is an ancient healing technology handed down through tradition for over a thousand years. Although difficult to trace from its origins - the guiding principals passed down from Dr Jivaka Kumar. Traditionally in Thai massage a prayer is offered to Jivaka before treating a patient. Thai Massage combines technique from Yoga, Ayurveda, Acupressure, and the spiritual channelling of healing energy or 'Chi'. Aside for it's spiritual element, a number of scientifically definable beneifits of regular massage include:
-
Improved circulation, vasodilation, and capillary refill.
-
Endocrine regulation* (hormonal) such as reduced Cortisol (stressor,) and vasopressin (aggression.) Increased production of Oxytocin which is often referred to as the 'love' hormone, and is responsible for bonding in mammals.
-
Relives chronic pain, muscular tension which may help regulate mood disorders. In the same way this is a fantastic choice for non-drug treatments for Fibromyalgia, Rheumatoid Arthritius and other pain-type disorders.**
- Look & feel amazing! - in randomised control trials where participants had either 1, 2, or no massages a week for a period of 8 weeks; showed the massage group had better posture, less pain & fatigue, visibly better mood compared to the control group.
