### Thai Table Massage Technique

Thai Massage combines elements of yoga, Shiatsu, mobility movements, acupressure, and foot reflexology techniques. Traditionally performed on the floor with the client fully clothed and without carrier oils, Thai Table Massage is an adaptation that can be conducted on a standard portable massage table. This method incorporates both stretching and compression to lengthen tight muscles and relieve hidden tension.

In Northern Thailand, Traditional Thai Massage focuses on stretching, while in Southern Thailand, the emphasis is on acupressure. Thai Table Massage combines both styles, making it adaptable for table use.

### Benefits of Thai Table Massage

- Stimulates the nervous system

- Relieves pain and muscle tension

- Strengthens and rejuvenates the body

- Improves blood and lymph circulation

- Increases flexibility

- Enhances elimination of wastes and toxins from physical, mental, and emotional strain

- Relieves headaches and migraines

- Eases back pain and sciatica

### How It Works

Stretching lengthens muscles over time, increasing flexibility and range of movement. Improved fluid circulation in joints reduces friction, easing musculoskeletal pain and impacting neuropathic pain and other chronic conditions. Better flexibility aids body realignment, improving posture.

The relaxation from Thai massage triggers significant serotonin release, helping with healthy sleep patterns and relieving stress, depression, and anxiety. Normal serotonin levels enhance focus, emotional stability, happiness, and calmness.
