Frequently called "yoga for lazy people," Thai Massage is an Asian bodywork style performed on a mat while the client wears loose, comfortable clothing. It incorporates passive stretching, compression and pressure point techniques on the body's sen lines to improve energetic flow, range of motion and flexibility. Thai bodywork can be especially helpful for people with low back, hip and sciatica issues and works well for people who prefer not to disrobe during bodywork sessions.

    This treatment focuses on the system of membranes and spinal fluid that surrounds and bathes the brain and spinal cord. A session usually consists of evaluting the flow of the spinal fluid, much like taking a pulse, and then releasing any areas of restriction found in the body using light pressure at the site of treatment. Frequently this also produces a deep sense of relaxation as the nervous system is given the opportunity to correct any areas of impeded communication and allow the body's own natural healing reflexes to take over.   
    This is another gentle therapy similar to Reiki in that the client remains fully clothed and the therapist uses light pressure, 5 grams, or the weight of a nickel. Many clients also notice a sensation of heat at the site of treatment, but it may come or go throughout the session.
