Thai Foot Massage is a massage of the
lower legs and feet that originated in Thailand 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 an holistic treatment. |
