Thai massage therapy and treatment
Are you suffering from pain, then why not try an alternative to NHS or Western style treatments? Thai massage therapy is a solution for patients with many types of sports injuries and common conditions such as back pain.
Graham Mercati of the BODYHARMONICS Clinic is an accomplished therapist and expert in modern Thai bodywork techniques, still essentially the same as those practised for over one thousand years.
Thai is based on yogic principles, but unlike the Chinese system it lacks a sophisticated theoretical background. Like Chinese massage (Tui Na), it is concerned with the intrinsic energies and their balance.
What are the special benefits of Thai yoga massage?
- The exquisite stretches of Thai massage
- eliminate tension
- improve flexibility
- enhance sports performance
- maintain a pain-free healthy body
- Thai massage therapy is performed on the floor on your clothed
body.
- Thai massage is designed to stretch every accessible muscle
a little more than it normally would under the action of strongly
contracting antagonistic muscles.
- Thai massage is a highly effective therapy for treating a range of pathological conditions of the musculo-skeletal system such as lower back pain, sciatica, fibrositis etc.
Thai massage and sports injuries
Most sports injuries involve damage to muscle fibres, myofascia
or tendons and they are commonly caused by overuse of muscles that
are not functionally balanced with other muscles in their group
and with their antagonists.
Thai massage therapy enables every individual muscle to assume its
normal relaxed length when not contracting.
When injury does occur the controlled stretches and manipulations
in Thai massage have an unrivalled ability
to speed healing and restore pain-free
function compared with Western Sports Massage.
Sports Thai Massage provides maintenance that muscles need, improving
performance by reducing the risk of injury for athletes and
dancers during their training.
