Thai massage is believed to have been developed more than 2,500 years ago in India. It then made its way to Thailand, where the Ayurvedic techniques and principles gradually became influenced by traditional Chinese medicine and for centuries, Thai massage was performed by monks as one component of Thai medicine.

Thai massage is more energizing and rigorous than the more classic forms of massage and there are many Thai massage in London where you can relieve those stresses of work and travel through the capital. Often referred to as Thai yoga massage, because the therapist uses his or her hands, knees, legs, and feet to move you into a series of yoga-like stretches; for many, Thai massage is just like doing yoga without any work!

There are some things that you should know when you contact your Thai massage spa. For example, Thai massage is usually done on a padded mat on the floor and no oil is applied, so you are fully dressed. You are usually asked to bring or wear comfortable clothing to the massage. Whilst Thai massage can take differing times, depending what you are advised or decide upon, for a typical Thai massage, this is 60 minutes to two hours long and you can be sure that it will relax you, reduce stress, improve your circulation, increase your energy, improve your range of motion, all in all you will feel a whole lot better after you have been to your Thai massage spa.
