The origins of Thai massage date back to over 2,500 years ago, when Shivago Komarpaj, Buddha’s physician, implemented the massage into medicinal practices. As Buddhism became prominent in Thailand, so did the massage. Many also see the massage technique as a blend of various Asian medicinal traditions as it shares common values with other Asian ways of healing.

Thai massage differs from other massage techniques in that it is usually done dry without any massage oils or lubricants and that the person receiving the massage is fully clothed and placed on a mattress on the ground. While many Western massage practices put emphasis on the utmost serenity, Thai massage is much more active. It is often referred to as a “lazy person’s yoga” as the massage practitioner will move your body in ways that resemble yoga-like stretches. Don’t be surprised when the practitioner starts using his or her hands, knees, legs, and feet to manipulate your body.
