What Is Thai Massage?
Thai massage is a traditional bodywork technique that blends assisted stretching, gentle pressure, and rhythmic movement.
Unlike table massage, Thai massage is typically performed on a mat with the client fully clothed. The therapist uses hands, thumbs, elbows, and guided stretches to help open joints, lengthen muscles, and improve mobility.
Many clients seeking care at McNamara Massage Therapist choose Thai massage for its ability to combine relaxation with active movement and flexibility support.
How Thai Massage Sessions Work
Each session begins with a brief discussion of flexibility, comfort level, and movement goals.
Thai massage may include:
- Assisted stretching to improve flexibility
- Rhythmic pressure along muscle pathways
- Gentle joint mobilization
- Slow pacing to support relaxation and awareness
Sessions are customized to your mobility level and comfort, with stretches adapted as needed.
Common Reasons Clients Choose Thai Massage
Thai massage is commonly chosen to support:
- Full-body stiffness or tightness
- Reduced flexibility or mobility
- Physically active or sedentary lifestyles
- Desire for movement-based bodywork
Clients who experience muscle tightness may also benefit from complementary services such as muscle tension relief massage or deeper focused work from deep tissue massage.
