Deep Tissue Thai Bodywork - Wilton, CT

Like other Eastern forms of healing, Thai massage is based on the idea that the body’s life force flows along channels within the body, and blockages in the flow of this life force or energy manifest as discomfort and disease. In these stressful times we often neglect our bodies causing unprocessed emotions,toxins and tension to lock into our body systems. Even worse, we can get out of structural

alignment, effecting the body’s ability to heal and repair. Matthew’s bodywork is deep and he helps you to clear out old energies that no longer serve you. He helps you to release and align your body so it can return to its natural state of joy, peace and grace. When energy is flowing freely along these channels, we feel energized, relaxed and healthy. By taking this ancient form of healing and adding the benefits of breath work, deep tissue massage, Chi Nei Tsang, Acupressure, Shaitsu and Traditional Maori Romi Romi, Matthew’s style of bodywork is deeply transformative for both the physical and energetic bodies. The sessions are three to four hours in length and take place on a mat on the floor. The client remains clothed, except for occasional herbal compresses and oil used on the abdomen. By using his hands, elbows, knees and feet, Matthew assists in releasing stagnant energy from main acupressure points along Thai sen lines. He leads breathing and surrendering techniques throughout the massage, and clients participate fully by breathing consciously and staying present in their bodies. Combining deep bodywork and breath work greatly assists in moving and releasing energy, and enables a client’s body to feel more free and light. Each session is different as it is tailored to what a person needs at the time. Many people experience emotional releases (e.g. crying, laughing) as old tension, emotions and congestion come to the surface. This style of bodywork is intended for people seeking to make a shift in their body and in their life, or for those who want to discover new things about themselves. It is also very helpful for relieving chronic physical ailments and latent emotional conflicts.
