Thai Massage

Combining gentle stretches for the whole body with soothing techniques, thai massage offers the perfect all-round treatment to both relax and reinvigorate the mind, body and spirit. Our treatment is based on the Northern style of thai massage which has been practiced for centuries in Thailand to keep the body and mind supple and relaxed.

The techniques used in this treatment aim to create an equilibrium of enery throughout the whole body which leaves the recipient with a sense of peaceful calm. With strong connections to yoga, experiencing a thai massage is often compared to having a yoga practice performed on your body for you. Many yoga practitioners recognise the benefits of the treatment and regularly receive a massage to supplement their daily practice.

Thai massage is performed fully clothed on a soft cushioned floor mat. The receiver is encouraged to relax and allow the therapist to move their body gently and with compassion. The intention for the session will be established in advance and whether it be for pure relaxation, to overcome tension or stress, or to focus on a particular condition such as back pain or headaches, the treatment will be adapted to suit the individual.

Sessions are available in Portobello, Edinburgh for £30 per hour. For more information or to enquire about arranging a session email David@hectorsfarm.com
