Thai Bodywork

90 min $150

Performed with clothes on. Thai Bodywork can be done on a massage table or the floor on a thick, covered matt. Barbara uses a thick covered matt in her studio.

This style involves client lying on mat in a passive state. The practitioner leads the stretching while the recipient remains in a passive state. Many of the stretches involve holding and pressing patterns. This style of massage allows the practitioner to work many areas of the body and as such, releases one from physical, emotional and mental distress. It is an amazing piece of art virtually anyone can receive.

It is non-invasive, non-confrontational, safe and an indirect approach to the bodies physical and psychological imbalances. Use of a subtle blend of Chinese acupressure meridian therapy.

There no side effects other than feeling better.
