WHAT IS THAI YOGA MASSAGE?
Traditional Thai Yoga Massage is a preventive and therapeutic full-body massage given on a mat on the floor.

Health benefits
Massage therapy is based on manipulation of the joints, acupressure along the muscles and stretching of the muscles, with enormous health benefits. Thai yoga massage is different from other forms of massage because both the masseur and the client are constantly moving.

Meditation
This is why not only the client but also the masseur becomes more flexible and is in meditation during the treatment.

Used in hospitals
In Thailand, this is used for centuries in hospitals to shorten the waiting lists. Moreover, this massage is part of the daily routine in Thailand with enormous health results.

THAI YOGA MASSAGE THERAPIST
Nowadays, traditional Thai massage is increasingly used as a treatment in regular Western medicine. Sociologists predict that the use of smartphones and other internet devices will increase. It is scientifically proven we sit more and move less due to the daily use of technology, the internet and smartphones. Therefore we are more prone to ailments. Neck pain, back pain and fatigue are some of the health problems caused by using computers, tablets or smartphones. If we increasingly use technology, then we move less and have more ailments. Therefore, there is an increasing demand for massage therapists, to treat but also prevent these ailments. So more massage therapists will be needed in the future. This means there will be plenty of clients for you, allowing you to create a good income for yourself.

TEACHING METHOD
Improve your health while taking our classes 

We not only teach you the best massage techniques, but you also improve your health while following our classes. Our teaching methodology is called VAK: visual, auditory and kinesthetic. This means that you first watch the teacher when he/she explains the massage techniques. Then you give your fellow student a massage, followed by you receiving a massage. So you learn and experience the massage techniques in 3 different ways.  

This method ensures that you can also work on improving your own health. It is wonderful to see the amazing results of our students. Many get rid of their burnout complaints or experience less stress, headaches and back pain. Only because they are following massage training and therefore, they personally experience the benefits of massage.
