Synopsis
Traditional Thai massage is the manual medicine branch of 2500 years of Traditional Thai medicine. It combines elements of yoga, shiatsu and acupressure, working with the energy pathways of the body and the therapy points thought to be located along these lines. This book takes a practical approach to showing and describing individual techniques, particularly those involving stretching, and takes the reader step-by-step through each technique, as well as its contraindications and precautions. Practical - clear and basic explanations of how elements of this technique can be applied straight into practice Visual - all techniques are shown in photos and line drawings, with arrows showing direction of movement Safe - contraindications and precautions spelt out fully new" - although certain elements of this practice overlap with other massage techniques, the method is a valuable, "new" adjunct to Western practice ", This richly illustrated book presents, for the first time in English, a detailed and practical introduction to traditional Thai medical massage. It begins with a discussion of the theories of Thai medicine and how they have been influenced by Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine. Clear and easy-to-follow descriptions are given of all the varied techniques involved-- techniques which can be used alone, in conjunction with other forms of massage, or to facilitate yoga and other meditation practices.
