FREE THAI MASSAGE DEMO/INFO SESSION. 6-7pm. Last Friday of each month, beginning July 30th @ Alchemy Health & Yoga Center in the Thai massage room downstairs.
Highly beneficial for all ages, abilities and body types, Thai bodywork is one of the most effective bodywork modalities. Also known as Thai Massage or Lazy Man's Yoga, this centuries old practice has its roots in Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine and Thai folk healing. Thai bodywork occurs fully clothed, in a one-on-one setting on a comfortable floor mat without oils or lotions. The practitioner uses hands, thumbs, forearms, elbows, knees and feet to work meridians and pressure points throughout the body in a meditative, flowing, dance-like rhythm. In addition, the practitioner guides the recipient into passive yoga postures linking breath with movement to stretch muscles, compress and decompress joints and increase range of motion.
During your Thai bodywork session, experience the BioMat. Filled with the healing power of amethyst crystals, the heated BioMat's far infrared rays penetrate deep into the body. Not only does the heat feel good, the BioMat's negative ions help transform an acidified body to an alkalized state. This alkalized balance results in purified blood, revived cells, improved immune functioning, revitalized cell metabolism and relief of pain. Enjoyment of the heated amethyst crystal BioMat is available during your Thai bodywork session at no additional charge.
