Want greater flexibility and range of motion? There are three truths about movement you need to know:
1. The best way to move muscles passively is when they are totally relaxed.
2. Controlled breathing turns off the stretch reflex (an involuntary contraction in the muscle in response to a stretch).
3. Time is needed for muscles to respond to the movement so a position change will effective and long lasting.
What massage modality can provide all three of these in a single session? Thai Massage! In this ancient form of massage we find modern applications for those who sit 4 or more hours a day in the car, at work, on the couch, etc. Also for those whose active lifestyles create restrictive movement from contracted muscle patterns. Even for those who feel like they just need good hands-on movement and engagement with their muscles.
We are pleased to offer Thai massage on our service menu for regular booking with our therapist Adriana. Add this to your regular massage routine or a specialty when your body is feeling really stuck. Nothing opens up the body like a Thai Massage!
*Please note that Thai massage is performed on a floor mat while fully clothed. The therapist uses their whole body to move you while guiding your breathing. Wear athletic leisure or loose fitting clothes for full range of motion ability.
