What is - Thai Foot Massage?
Thai Foot Massage is a massage of the lower legs and feet that involves hands on stretching and massage to
“open” Sen (energy) Lines which are from the Ayurvedic tradition, reflex points on the feet similar to reflexology
correspond to the internal organs of the body and by applying pressure to these points help to balance the energy levels of
the body. A Treatment
in Thai Foot Massage will usually last for one hour and the therapist may spend the last 10 minutes massaging the hands and
sometimes the shoulders too.Thailand
has evolved as a centre for massage, partly due to geographical location and partly to the peoples’ predisposition towards
massage, with traditional techniques from India and China diverging in Thailand to give us Traditional Thai Massage and Thai
Foot Massage.
Thai Foot Massage
takes its origins from China where the art has been practiced for over 5000 years, and Thai Foot Massage, as seen everywhere
in Thailand today, has developed from Chinese, Japanese, and Korean foot masseuses. It is still practised
by monks in Buddhist temples today. Traditional
Thai Massage and Thai Foot Massage complement each other beautifully. Thai Massage balances the elements of the mind and body,
while Thai Foot Massage stimulates the internal organs, giving the receiver an holistic treatment.
