Thai Massage

Thai massage is an ancient form of bodywork that combines elements of acupressure, yoga-style stretches, and energy line work. Using flowing movements, pressure points, and stretches, the whole body is treated. This helps release tension, improve flexibility, clear blockages, and stimulate the flow of energy (Qi). A Thai massage is both deeply relaxing and revitalizing – perfect for restoring balance, both physically and mentally.
