Thai Massage Glasgow - Thai Yoga Massage Glasgow Clinic

Thai Yoga Massage originated in India and arrived in Thailand at the same time as Buddhism around 3rd Century BC. The legendary founder was a contemporary of Buddha, a physician called Jivaka Kumar Bhaccha.

His teachings were passed down orally from teacher to student. Diagrams illustrating the knowledge were carved in stone and placed on the walls of Wat Pho, a temple in Bangkok, in 1832, since the original texts had been destroyed, when the Burmese sacked the then capital Ayutthia in 1767.

How Thai Yoga Massage Works
The theory behind thai massage it is that the practitioner works on 10 main energy ( sen) lines. On these lines there are important acupressure points which can open up blockages, stimulate flow of energy and help restore general well-being. This is the same theory as Chinese acupuncture and acupressure, as well as the Japanese system of Shiatsu ( the energy lines in these systems are called meridians ).

Traditional Thai Massage is practised all across Thailand, where it is used to stay fit and healthy. The massage takes place on a mat on the floor, and the client remains fully clothed throughout. It incorporates much acupressure, stretching and breathing exercises, since it has a basis in Yoga teaching, and it incorporates many Yoga positions. The treatment lasts between one and two and a half hours, and tends to put the client into a deep state of relaxation, followed by a subtle boost of renewed energy.

Anyone can experience Thai Yoga Massage, as the practitioner tailors the treatment to the individual, taking the clients' current medical condition into consideration.

Indian Head Massage Glasgow

Originating - as the name suggests - in the East, Indian Head Massage works on both physical and mental states. A treatment focuses on the upper body, back, shoulders, neck, head and face - the areas most vulnerable to stress and tension, however should be beneficial for de-stressing the whole body.

By dispersing toxins from tense and knotted muscles, improving blood-circulation in previously congested muscles, and helping oxygenate the brain it may help with eye-strain, tinitus, jaw ache, sinusitis, stimulate lymphatic drainage and aid sleep.

Hot Stone Massage Therapy Glasgow

Hot stone massage therapy is an effective form of massage using rounded volcanic balsalt stones. The heated stones can be used either by placing them on the clients body or incorporated within the massage. The heat from the stones helps to relax both the muscles and the client. The treatment can be tailored to the clients needs and may be used both for relaxation or for therapeutic reasons.

What to Expect During A Hot Stone Massage Treatment

A short consultation prior to the hot stone treatment ensures that any medical conditions are considered during the massage. The stones are heated to a comfortable temperature in a water bath and are removed from the hot water bath and placed on the body and hands or feets and allowed to warm the muscles prior to massaging that area. During the treatment the massage therapist will also use oil (e.g. grapeseed or sweet almond oil, and aromatherapy oils can also be included).
