Thai Massage

Thai massage is an ancient healing practice that has gained popularity worldwide for its unique blend of techniques and therapeutic benefits. With its roots in traditional Thai medicine, this holistic approach offers a multitude of advantages in relaxing the body, making it an excellent addition to osteopathic care. At Osteomed, we are happy to have Marina Vasileva, who has extensive experience in practicing Thai massage.

Thai massage combines acupressure, passive stretching, and energy line work to promote balance, flexibility, and relaxation. Unlike other massage styles, Thai massage is performed fully clothed, allowing for a wide range of movements and stretches. Whilе targeting specific muscle groups and joints, it focuses on stimulating the body's natural energy flow, known as "Sen" lines.

Thai massage is particularly useful for people who have overcome their symptoms with osteopathic therapy and simply need maintenance.  Regular sessions can help enhance flexibility, alleviate muscle tension, and improve joint mobility. It also promotes healthy blood circulation, which can aid in the delivery of nutrients and removal of toxins, contributing to improved healing and faster recovery.

In addition to its physical benefits, Thai massage is known for its calming effects on the mind and nervous system. The reduction in stress levels can have a positive impact on one's mental and emotional well-being, promoting a sense of tranquility and balance.

Thai massage can complement osteopathic techniques by preparing the body for adjustments, reducing muscle tension, and enhancing the overall treatment outcomes. Thai massage on its own is great for general maintenance of the muskulo-skeletal system.
