About this Table Thai Massage Course ...

This is a comprehensive introduction to Thai Yoga Massage practiced on a table. It’s an ancient healing art that’s preventive and therapeutic - combining acupressure with yoga like stretches. It brings balance and harmony to your whole being with a deep meditative quality.

Thai Yoga Massage helps –

• Maintain a healthy immune system.
• Prevents illness and disease.
• Reduces stress and anxiety.
• Treats aches and pains.
• Aids the cleansing of the lymphatic system.

The stretches keep the body supple and flexible - in fact in Thailand the practice is sometimes called ‘yoga for lazy people’. This traditional therapy has helped heal and nurture for thousands of years.
