The Practise of Thai massage
According to easter philosophy underlying thai massage, the body is made up of an interconnecting web of energy lines through which prana, flows life energy. This is the force that supports and maintains all the vital functions of the body. It permeats all life and sustains all living things. It is in the air that we breath and the food that we eat. When the energy flows freely we enjoy good mental, physical and spiritual health. If the energy lines become blocked, and the flow of prana is interrupted, it causes disruption and imbalance throughout the system. So, in Thai massage, practitioners stimulate energy lines by using pressure and passive stretches to maintain a free flow of energy through the whole body.
