I now offer Thai Reflexology!

What is Traditional Thai Reflexology

Traditional Thai Reflexology is an ancient healing practice that focuses on stimulating specific points on the feet, hands, and ears, which are believed to correspond to various organs and systems in the body. Rooted in Thai medicine, this technique is designed to restore balance, promote relaxation, and improve overall health by targeting pressure points that are thought to be connected to the body's energy pathways.

How It Works

In Thai reflexology, the therapist uses a rosewood dowel to apply gentle pressure to reflex points on the feet, which are considered a map of the entire body. These pressure points are believed to correspond to different areas and functions, such as the digestive system, circulatory system, and nervous system. By stimulating these points, Thai reflexology aims to enhance the body’s natural healing abilities, reduce stress, and improve circulation.

Benefits of Thai Reflexology

Traditional Thai reflexology can help alleviate tension, improve energy flow, and support the body’s detoxification processes. Many people seek this treatment for relief from headaches, back pain, stress, and digestive issues. Additionally, it is often used to improve sleep quality, reduce anxiety, and boost overall well-being.

What to Expect During a Session

During a Thai reflexology session, you will be reclined comfortably while the therapist works on your feet or hands. The treatment can involve a variety of techniques, including thumb pressure, circular motions, and gentle stretches. The experience is generally soothing, though some pressure points may feel tender depending on your body's condition. Reflexology is a deeply relaxing experience, and many people report feeling a sense of balance and calm following the treatment.

Thai reflexology is a holistic therapy that connects mind and body, promoting health and relaxation through the simple yet powerful technique of applying pressure to specific reflex points.
