You must have heard a lot about Thai massage. The technique used by Thai massage therapists is very different from what Westerners are used to. Instead of lying passively on the massage table, the client lies on the ground and is actively involved in the therapy, with the masseur using pressure and stretching techniques to relax the muscles of the whole body. Let’s imagine the effects on human health that Thai massage brings.
Health benefits of Thai massage
Thai massage has many health benefits, from the aforementioned muscle relaxation to reducing stress and mental tension. Here are some of the main health benefits.
Relieves neck and neck pain
If your cervical spine tends to hurt to the point where the pain shoots up into your head, know that this is the most common reason people choose to get a Thai massage. Massaging stiff muscles and getting the blood flowing are part of many massage techniques. Ironically, many people talk about Thai massage being painful in itself. The intensity of the pain depends on the patient’s medical condition, and it is understandable that the massage will be more painful if the patient has muscle spasms. So it is important to distinguish between what is good and bad pain.
Better flexibility
Traditional Thai massage is closely linked to yoga, so individual massage techniques can improve joint mobility. This helps to make you more flexible and supple. It is likely that miracles will not happen after the first treatment, but after some time you will find that your mobility has improved greatly.
Increase in energy
Another advantage is that the massage therapist uses various techniques to unblock and unblock the energy pathways in the body, making the client feel fresh and vital. If you often suffer from fatigue, malaise and literally feel like a “zombie”, a Thai massage will bring your body and mind back into balance and you will wake up in the morning with ease and lots of energy.
Normalizes metabolic disorders
Thai massage normalizes metabolism, supports the immune system, accelerates the flushing of toxins from the body and harmonizes blood circulation and lymph flow. Detoxification is extremely important in the current era full of smog, pesticides and harmful substances in the air and unhealthy diet. Thai massage is an effective and proven method to protect the body from external influences. Detoxification promotes better mental clarity and eases the burden on the cardiovascular system.
Positive emotions
Through mindful relaxation combined with movement and massage techniques, you will experience what true relaxation is and release a valve of pent-up emotional energy. Negative thoughts can leave you and you can literally experience the feeling of a heavy boulder being thrown off your back. With a Thai massage, your cortisol (stress hormone) levels will be reduced and your serotonin neurotransmitters (happiness hormones) will increase, leading to an immediate improvement in your mood.
