Traditional Thai Massage

Current Thai massage practice is a combination of Thai Folk Massage and Royal Thai Massage. The practitioner uses hands, heels of hands, thumbs, fingers, lower palm, knees, elbow, arms, and feet to perform a massage. The practitioner will also at times use specific massage tools (foot massage stick, mallet and stick, herbal ball) depending on the type of massage the recipient requires. The practitioner utilizes many positions in order to maintain an appropriate distance to maximize comfort, effectiveness, and safety. The only time oil is used is when the recipient gives approval. The recipient is always clothed in comfortable top and pants/shorts. Usually oil is used when massaging the face and neck from a supine position.  Thai massage is traditionally performed on a mat on the floor. Thai massage may also be applied to a chair or massage table. The recipient (unless in a chair) may be sitting, supine face up or face down, side lying, and/or any combination of these positions.
