Thai Ancient Massage |
Keyword for understanding Thai ancient massage : "2 styles"
Thai Ancient Massage is a unique form of body therapy that incorporates
Yoga and acupressure to stretch the muscles and open the joints. This safe,
holistic treatment harmonizes the body, increases energy, relieves stress
and promotes a peaceful mind.
There are 2 main styles of Thai massage. The characteristic of Northern-style
is its variety of stretching technique, while Bangkok,Wat Po style puts
emphasis on finger pressure (Shiatsu).

Customers' comment after receiving our massage:
-"Thai massage means rough and painful treatment"that has been
a prejudice in my heart. It turned out that, beyond my expectation. Thai
Ancient Massage was so comfortable and the stretching exercise in the second
half of the session resulted in such a nice massaging effect, which totally
renewed me perception. I now feel that this massage should give a very
positive effect particularly to a guy like me who has a very stiff body
and physique. I do recommend that you will also try this massage and I
know you will find my statement to be true
.(Mr.Oana Tokyo, Receiving massages twice a month, Receiving Thai Ancient
Massage for the first time)
-I felt so relaxed and happy during the massage, I felt like I was on a
Caribbean Cruise!
(Ms.Sagiuchi Norway, Receiving massages 2nd time. Receiving Thai Ancient
Massage for the first time)

Message:
Massage.....I really like to receive it. Thai Ancient massage, it's a life work which we can learn more and more about, that's why I go to receive Thai Ancient massage here and there. However I've never succeeded to keep myself conscious until the end of the massage, as the massage was so confortable that I always fell asleep.... I'd like to share the healing world from Thailand with as many people as possible.

Message:
I've never forgotten the day when I received Northern-Thai ancient massage
for the first time. How wonderful it was ! It is often said that Thai Ancient
massage is the best in the world, and I totally agree with it. Northern-Thai
ancient massage has many stretching techniques and I was wondering how
and which positionthe masseur did massage to me, but I didn't want to open
my eyes in order to concentrate in the massage mode in myself, and then
I fell asleep......."Healing" is the keyword in our life. Let's
study the secret of Asian healing art together!!
