Thai yoga bodywork is such a wonderful adaptable module. I can work as light or as deep depending on how much pressure my client can take. And because it’s performed on a mattress on the floor, I can use my body weight. I can work using light touch just with my hands or use my whole body weight so that I can reach the deeper layers of the muscle tissue. Using not just my hands but also my arms and feet, allows me to apply more pressure. Quite often there’s a need to work deeper especially if your muscles are strong.

Thai yoga bodywork can have an effect on your body on so many levels.

It can help in:

Relieving tension headaches

Reducing muscle pain and as well as joint stiffness

Increasing range of movement and flexibility

Stimulating blood circulation

Boosting your energy

Calming your nervous system

Ever since I started working in massage therapy and bodywork, it has made me realise how important that we all have to look after our bodies. And that includes doing physical exercise on a regular basis. Both aerobic and weight-bearing exercises play their role in keeping our bodies strong and free of pain. To me, massage and bodywork therapies work hand in hand with physical exercise. Together, they can boost your energy, help you feel more relaxed and sleep better.

Physical activity builds stronger bones, muscles, and joints.

Massage therapy and bodywork help in preventing injury as well as provide an important role in the process of repair caused by damage to the muscles and joints.

That is why every Olympic and paralympic Israeli team has both a physical trainer and massage therapist on their staff. The teams know that these professionals provide vital support to ensure that every athlete is at their optimal performance at every sporting event they attend.
