Thai Massage - Aroma Massage Basel
Traditional Thai Massage Basel (TTM) is a system of massage techniques known in Thailand as Nuat Phaen Boran (Thai: นวดแผนโบราณ), which literally means "massaging according to an ancient pattern". In Western Europe it is also called Thai yoga massage. Thai massage consists of passive stretching positions and movements taken from yoga, joint mobilizations and pressure point massages. Simplified, it can therefore be summarized as a combination of (passive) yoga and acupressure.
Ten selected energy lines (Thai: สิบเส้น - sip sen), which according to Ayurvedic teachings run through the body as an energetic network, are worked on through gentle stretching and with the rhythmic pressure of the heels of the hands, thumbs, knees, elbows and feet. The Thai massage takes place clothed on a floor mat. It is characterized by its dynamic powerful aspect. A classical Thai massage routine for a patient without particular complaints consists of at least 77 individual treatment techniques and takes at least 1½ hours, an individualized treatment can take up to three hours.
