Thai Massage - An Introduction
1 day – with Sarah Urquhart-Taylor
Sometimes referred to as “Lazy man’s yoga”, Nuad
Bo-Rarn Thai massage is performed on a mat rather than a table, which
allows for highly effective use of the practitioner’s body weight,
rather than muscular force. Thai massage incorporates elements from many
other modalities including Osteopathy, Chiropractic, Myofascial Therapy,
Neuromuscular Therapy and structural integration.
Thai Massage is a fantastic therapy to use with sports people, or any
client who would benefit from improved flexibility. It will also give
you extra techniques to complement existing remedial massage skills. It
focuses on safe use of body weight and body mechanics for the
practitioner and allows you to give a deep, effective treatment without
straining your own body!
Introduction to Thai Massage
Over the course of the day, you will learn to
massage the hands, feet, face, head and neck. Techniques will include
acupressure, stretches and gentle compression movements. You will both
give and receive treatment, leaving you perfectly relaxed and refreshed.
The day will provide you with the skills to give this wonderfully
relaxing treatment to your family and friends.
No previous experience of massage required – open to all.
If you are a qualified therapist, it will give you
some extra ideas to incorporate into your existing work. It is also an
opportunity to learn more about this therapy and gain an insight
