Thai massage is an amazing synthesis of many techniques-leaning pressure, reflexology, energy line work, blood stopping, stretching, and yoga.
To achieve all of these effects, Thai massage therapists use more parts of their bodies to give a massage than therapists in any other modality.
They use their palms, thumbs, feet, elbows, forearms, and knees. The receiver is moved through a wide variety of postures within five positions-supine, side lying, prone, inverted, and seated.
