Thai Yoga Male Massage Step by Step Description / Toronto
" Wow! Now I know what you meant by "HOT"! my body is floating around here today, still, after that great session with you.
The Thai massage really felt good. With you I felt some great stretches. I even felt that some of my bones were actually bending a little. It was great.
The rest of the day was so pleasant for me."
John/ Toronto ON.
David is a Certified gay male Thai Yoga Massage practitoner in Toronto, With a certified male practitioner you will experience a renewed introduction to your own body. Discover areas of resistance that are unfamiliar do to daily inactivity. Experience the nurturing qualities of the massage. It is incredibly grounding, relaxing but most of all rejuvenating. Other massage techniques can leave in a state of unconsciousness, not wanting to do anything more than nap, which can be a good thing if you have the time available. The best way to describe Thai Massage and more specifically Thai Yoga Massage is, you are a rag doll in caring hands.
There is no actual yoga involved for the client, however it is quite an active massage to administer as the practitioner.
Sitting standing kneeling squatting in various positions are all part of comfortably manipulating the clients body.
Traditional thai massage is done fully or comfortably partially clothed . A nude body can be a distraction therefor it is in the best interest of both client and practitioner that bodies are not fully exposed,
the Thai Massage therapist is not distracted and the recipient can focus on the internal vibration and flow of energy and breath in and out of their own body .
A " Table Thai Massage" or" Floor Matt Thai Yoga Massage " are two types available .To begin the floor matt session the client if he /she is able
sits on the floor with legs extended in front of them and the practitioner behind them.
The client is invited to take a conscious belly breath while the practitioner palms and thumbs up an down the spine.
A shoulder press and arm rotation gives the practitioner a good indication of the flexibility or resistance held in the clients upper body / torso, neck and arms.
The client is invited to lower onto their back the head positioned with a pillow for support.
Each practitioner will follow a general flow from his/ her current training level and intuitive senses once they have attained enough practice.
The legs are pulled, rotated from the hip, palmed and thumb pressed along the meridians ( energy lines ) of the the inner and outer legs.
The client may experience tingling , some " good discomfort " but rarely pain unless the body is extremely toxic and energy blocked.
It's not always necessary for deep pressure as the meridians (energy lines followed by acupuncturists ) of the body run along the surface of the body in many cases and are either in excess or deficient.
It is the muscles ruled by the meridian quality of energy that may require the deeper pressure to assist with release.
A belly massage consistent with the clockwise direction of the large intestine assists the liver, gall bladder, stomach, spleen, and bladder to relax.
The Thai massage practitioner does all the work in most cases of positioning the client who's job is to use this opportunity to " just let go. "
While on there side the therapist presses down on the length of the arm which compresses the torso . He/ she will pull the shoulder away from the ears
and thumb along the back of the skull to release tension in the neck which is often associated with headache which makes sense since blocked energy generaly manifests as pain.
The purpose of all massage is to assist the client to create healthy energy flow. Thai Massage can be seen as ' no needle acupuncture ' with the bonus benefit of gaining flexibility using motion to facilitate that flow .
What is done to one side of the body is done to the other. A gentle sweeping of the body part worked on is used to calm any invasive tension .
Floor Matt Thai Massage provides the most benefits as the practitioner is better able to use his /her full body weight to address high tension areas.
The back , along the spine ( never on the spine ) is thumbed , palm pressed , arm rolled and swept.
With the help of the Conscious client breath the scapula/ under the shoulder blades is released by inserting thumbs or sets of fingers under the blades and holding or rotating
the shoulder onto the fingers to assist the body in letting go of tension.
All tension held in the body is the result of not breathing consciously from the belly throughout the day as a practise .
80% of all illness could be avoided including cancer if every irritation , annoyance , fret or bout of anger were released at its ocurence .
Conscious breathing recognizes the base of the spine , Kidney Energy and the ground from which we access restorative Yin energy and draw up through our legs .
It is the Kidney energy ( fluids ) that ultimately rises to fuel the bodies organ systems and provide the basic ingredients of blood.
A client who is more limber may receive a higher level Thai Massage which incorparates more movements relevent to the bodies capabilites
to avoid injury and stress on the client.
