Traditional Thai Massage (TTM) FAQ
What happens in a TTM treatment?
All treatments start with an introductory talk. The actual bodywork is done on a comfortable mat on the floor, and we will use a combination of yoga stretching, acupressure, movement and massage techniques. Thai Massage is received fully clothed..
What should I wear?
Please wear loose clothing, preferably trousers rather than a skirt and clean socks.
Is there anything I should do before or after the Thai Massage treatment?
Please do not eat heavily for two hours before the treatment and avoid alcohol and drugs, and preferably caffeine. If possible you may like to organize your day so that you can relax after your session.
How does a Thai Massage feel?
It is different for everyone. The principle of TTM means I apply as much pressure as is needed for the treatment. At times the pressure can be very deep (akin to deep tissue massage), at other times, the pressure applied is very gentle.
Are all TTM treatments the same?
No. Thai Massage is a customized therapy. The treatments are different every time, and reflect the needs of your body at the time of the treatment.
How is Traditional Thai Massage different from Swedish massage or physiotherapy?
TTM is a holistic therapy that treats your whole being energetically and physically. Thai Massage involves some massage techniques, acupressure and stretches, but the treatment is received fully clothed and no oils are used.
How many treatments do I need?
An individual session may be beneficial in it’s own right, but it may be necessary to have more sessions to get the full benefit. Generally people have between 4 and 6 sessions either weekly or fortnightly, and then go on to have sessions approximately once or twice a month, or when they feel they would like to have a session.
I have a serious illness. Will Thai Massage help?
Please check with your doctor first whether it is advisable to receive bodywork.
When is TTM contraindicated?
Thai Massage is not appropriate if you feel you are coming down with a cold or are feverish, or are in the first quarter of pregnancy. If you have varicose veins or bruising or an injury, please mention the location before treatment begins..
