Thai Bodywork
Thai yoga massage is a form of massage that combines assisted yoga asana, acupressure, Ayurvedic principals and massage into one complete experience. The massage is performed on a floor mat and the client is clothed in comfortable clothing that allows for ease of movement. Clients come in and enjoy complete relaxation while the practitioner brings healing and movement back into the body through these techniques. Thai yoga massages are perfect for those who often feel “stiff” or are working out acute physical issues. Thai yoga massage helps those with an active lifestyle increase their agility, range of motion and flexibility without having to “work hard” to achieve it. Thai massage also helps those unable to move due to injury or sickness with assisted mobility and healing. Whether and athlete or bed-ridden, your body will thank you for a Thai massage!

Cupping & Moxibustion
Moxibustion is a heat therapy where moxa (sticks made of medicinal plant material) are burned on or near the surface of the skin. This is to warm and invigorate the flow of Qi (energy) in the body. Practitioners hold a burning moxa stick close to, but not touching the surface of the skin. It has been used to prevent and cure diseases.
