Thai
Massage
Ancient Massage or Thai
Massage is an extraordinary method of aligning
the energies of the body, and originates from
the time of the Buddha.
Nuad Phaen Boran
as is it called in Thailand, correctly
translates only as Ancient Massage or
Traditional Massage. More widely known today as
Thai Massage, it is also often called
Traditional Thai Massage, Ancient Thai Massage
and occasionally Yoga Massage or Thai Yoga
Massage. In our web pages, we wanted to use only
Ancient Massage to be faithful to the original
appellation but had to change our mind and also
use Thai Massage to be referenced correctly by
the search engines and so forth. If we did not
use the words "Thai Massage", who would have
found us and the information we wanted to share
with students, researchers and practitioners of
this art.
The Healing Hands Center is dedicated to
offering hands-on training in the art of Ancient
Massage or Thai Massage.
Thai Foot
Massage
Thai Foot Massage is a
massage of the lower legs and feet that is well
established in Thailand with influence from
Japan, Korea and China. This type of massage
originated about 2000 years ago. It has become
an integral part of Traditional Thai Massage and
has elements of Shiatsu, Reflexology, Chinese
Massage and Yoga incorporated into the massage
itself.
Thai Foot Massage involves hands on
stretching and massage, along with the use of a
stick to stimulate the reflex points. It is
still taught by Buddhist monks in the temples of
Thailand.
Traditional Thai Massage and Thai Foot
Massage compliment each other beautifully. Thai
Massage balances the elements of the mind and
body, while Thai Foot Massage stimulates the
internal organs, giving the receiver a holistic
treatment
