Thai oil massage in Brighton and Hove

Thai oil massage enhances body and mind through the combination of many different massage forms including Thai, aromatherapy and Swedish massage.

This synergistic treatment promotes serenity and a sense of well being. When massaging, aromatic oil is firmly applied over your body in blissful and synchronized waves, using the smooth stokes of Swedish massage, but also relieving the muscle tension with Thai massage techniques.

During Thai oil massage, massage therapists use massage oils to facilitate smooth, gliding strokes called effleurage. Other classic Thai oil massage moves include kneading, friction, stretching and (sometimes) tapping.

There is nothing like it!

Feel free to state your preference for pressure during the massage session. It can range from light to firm. Thai oil massage usually includes some deeper work on areas of specific muscle tension. If you want more intensive work and firmer pressure, opt for a deep tissue massage.

The Traditional Thai massage is an acupressure and stretching type of massage.

It is performed on a special Thai mat over loose clothing. Thai massage is one of the world’s oldest healing therapies in which pressure is applied to specific points following the energy lines of the body, also known as “Zen lines”. The therapist uses a series of stretching techniques which are similar to yoga postures. It has been compared to doing yoga without the effort while receiving acupressure treatment.
