Traditional Thai massage is a slow, movement-based
form of bodywork. It combines the use of acupressure with assisted yoga
postures. An Ayurvedic assessment is done before each session in order
to determine which pressure points and yoga postures are most appropriate.
Thai massage can be deep--the therapist uses thumbs, knees, elbows and
feet! However, the work is done as a slow and rhythmic dance allowing
the recipient to enter a relaxed and meditative state.

Based on the Traditional Chinese Art & Science of Acupuncture, Shiatsu uses finger pressure to stimulate and balance the energy meridians of the body. This deeply soothing process relaxes muscular tension, releases endorphins and promotes balance and well-being.
