Thai Foot Massage - what is it?

Authentic Thai Foot Massage - there are some very inauthentic ones around - is a massage of the lower legs, feet and hands that originated in Thailand about 2000 years ago.

It has become an integral part of traditional Thai massage and has elements of Shiatsu, Reflexology, Chinese massage and Yoga incorporated into the massage itself.

Thai Foot Massage involves hands on stretching and massage, along with the use of a stick to stimulate the reflex points.

What does it involve?

The therapy involves the gentle manipulation and massage of hands, legs and feet.  This is believed to open energy lines, stimulating reflex points on the feet which correspond to the internal organs of the body.

A truly relaxing experience as the toes, feet, ankles & lower legs are manipulated, stretched & loosened.

This treatment combines Stretching, Massage, Manipulation & ‘Sen’ energy line work to relax, ‘wring out’ and wake up tired, aching, lifeless feet.

I have been an active practitioner for over ten years and have seen the complimentary therapy field flourish around me.

This encouraged me to research the various therapies by traveling around the globe, which broadened my knowledge and helped me obtain unique techniques from the native lands.

I subsequently developed a passion to share my work and skills which lead me to Ireland and the USA where I lectured at schools and promoted Complimentary Therapy at trade shows.

I am a full member of the Association of Reflexologists and follow their codes of Practice and Ethics seriously.

In my experience as a practitioner I have previously achieved the following:

Successfully treated various aspects and conditions with "Reflexology" and have had broad experience on fertility/pregnancy.

Stimulated Lymphatic drainage and reinforced Respiratory system with "Indian Head Massage".
I have helped to increase flexibility and blood flow to the knees/hips and improved circulation with "Thai Foot Massage".

Corrected digestive disorders, boosted immune system and increased well being with deep tissue work of the "Hot Stones!".
