Benefits and Thypes of Thai Massage
Benefits of a Thai Massage
There is no doubt that the results of Thai massages are incredible. Apart from the exciting experience itself, you are bound to come out of the spa in a much better state of physical andmental well-being.
Relieve Pain
The main advantage to a Thai Massage is the fact that it can relieve pain instantly. Whether you’re a fitness freak, sports lover or simply an active person – expect your joints and muscles to be relieved completely.
As business women, we often tend to spend a lot of our times either sitting down or in a lot of stress and relaxing our muscles will have a direct impact on depression, anxiety and general stress.
Improved Blood Circulation
Another main benefit is how much a Thai massage helps increase your blood circulation. This has a direct impact on improving IBS, any low back pain you might suffer from sitting too much and much more.
Lazy Yoga
It basically has the same benefits that yoga does – but you’ll pretty much have to do nothing but lie down! Make sure you tell your therapist exactly how much you can endure.
Health Benefits
Works well for migraines, tensions headaches, muscle pain, and the nervous system.
Types of Thai Massages
Southern Style Massage

Northern Type.
This is more similar to traditional massages – where pressure is more smooth and gradual rather than suddenly aggressive.
