Thai massage is one of the most distinctive bodywork traditions available, and also one of the most misunderstood. It shares a name with massage but works almost nothing like the Swedish or <\/span>therapueitc <\/span>sessions most people are familiar with. No oils, no lying still while someone works on your muscles. Thai massage is active, clothed, and rooted in a philosophy about energy and movement that has been <\/span>practised <\/span>for over 2,500 years. This guide covers what it actually is, how it works, and whether it suits what you are looking for. If you have been putting it off, this is probably the thing that tips you over.<\/span><\/p>\n
