Thai massage acts upon ten energy lines: "The invisible body" (prana nadi) along which the most important points of acupuncture are found.
By massaging these it is possible to treat particular
illnesses and to alleviate pain. Working on this flow of
energy by massage can eliminate blocks, stimulate the free
flow of prana and so contribute to a general well-being.The
development of therapeutic massage in Thailand has its roots
in India.
The theory upon which this technique of massage
is based is also the foundation of the Chinese systems of
acupuncture and acupressure.
Along with massage go
exercises to lengthen and stretch muscles, These exercises are
the application of "Hatha Yoga", or physical yoga. The masseur
applies the exercises to the patient and so it would be
correct to call this technique "Massage Yoga".
In India
the tradition of this massage is more or less lost and
Ayurvedic massage and Yogic massage as they are practiced
today have developed differently through the centuries, but
the Yogic origin of Thai massage is clearly visible in the
more "acrobatic" positions
