Is learning Thai Massage fun or work?

In my function as a Thai Massage teacher, I often hear serious questions and comments along the lines of:

  • “How pure is a particular healing art, Thai Massage, or yoga system?”

thai Massage tradition versus innovation

Thailand is famous for its unique Thai Massage therapy system. Every year many thousands of people travel to Thailand to study there. Countless Thai Massage schools have sprung up all over the country in the last 20 years.

Most people assume that Thai Massage education must be best in its home country. The question is if this is really true.

Is The Effect Of Thai Massage Mostly Relaxing Or Therapeutic?

Is Thai Massage relaxing or therapeutic

Thailand is famous for its unique style of bodywork, Thai Massage, which is really a combination of massage and applied or passive yoga stretches.

There is plenty of information available about the benefits of massage in general. And there is no shortage of scientific evidence that massage is good for your body.
