TRAUMA HEALING
According to legend, Buddha’s physician Jivaka Komarpaj was the founder of the system now called Thai Yoga Massage, though it has probably changed considerably since his time.
Energy from the breath (Lom) travels through the body along lines (Sen). While this sounds like the Chinese system of Meridians, it is in fact much closer to Prana of Yoga. Many of the stretches used in the sessions are similar to those used in Yoga, and the method of opening the lines consists of a series of presses by the practitioner using various parts of their body depending on the intensity needed. The treatment is characterized by a rocking motion which uses the body weight to regulate the direction and pressure of each press.
Thai Yoga Massage is the most effective therapeutic massage.
As the massage is performed mostly on the floor it is recommended to wear comfortable loose clothes such as a tracksuit or loose trousers and a tee shirt.
Time line healing

This is a massage of the feet and lower legs incorporating methods from reflexology, Thai Yoga Massage and shiatsu. The massage is applied by pressing with fingers thumbs and knuckles, rubbing and bending the feet to stretch them and relax them. Finer pressure is sometimes applied using a specially designed wooden tool.
This is great for tired feet, especially if you have been standing all day or exercising hard.
Foot massage is considered to be particularly effective in opening the energy channels of the body and so its benefits extend to the whole body, not just the area being treated.
There are many benefits from foot massage, including:
-
stress relief
-
improved sleep
-
improves your mood
-
improved imune response
-
improved concentration
-
improved circulation in the feet and lower legs
-
improved general flexibility in the feet and legs
