Understanding What Makes Thai Massage a Holistic Massage Treatment

Are All Massage Therapies Holistic? 

You must understand that not all massage sessions are holistic. There are massage practitioners who take from modern medical science and work primarily on the physical symptoms. So, if you experience pain and discomfort in a specific body part, they will focus just on that, implementing techniques like rubbing and pressing. 

The treatment eases the discomfort, but you are missing out on the plethora of benefits of a holistic Thai massage treatment. 

Now, Let’s Enlighten You about the Holistic Thai Massage Therapy! 

As a licensed and experienced practitioner of traditional Thai massage in NYC, I will give you a rundown of holistic Thai massage therapy. We will start with the different elements that add ‘holistic’ to a massage session: 

• The physical element or the body and its many support functions- food, air, and exercise or movement.
• The emotional element or your reactions to happenings in life.
• The mental element. That includes your attitude, intellect, and thought patterns.
• The spiritual element. That encourages you to look at life as more than a temporary biophysical event. It helps you seek meaningfulness, purposefulness, and connectedness in life.

Physical 

You already know your therapist will work on your physical body when you book a session for a traditional Thai massage in NYC. But it is not just about relieving symptoms. 

Your posture, breathing, nutrition, and exercise habits contribute significantly to your physical wellbeing. Your massage therapist will ask you questions to determine the root cause of the problem and make you aware that you need to address those issues along with regular massage for long-term relief. 

For example, while discussing your lifestyle, if your therapist discovers that you hardly exercise; they will recommend that you follow an exercise routine.

Emotional 

Negative emotions, like hatred, frustration, anger, dissatisfaction, and more, keep you from reaching your full potential, and holistic Thai massage helps you deal with those emotions in a healthy way. 

Thai massage stimulates and balances your energy through Sen Line Therapy. Your massage practitioner can also suggest Abdominal Therapy effective in releasing emotions bottled up in your abdomen. 

You will feel relaxed and full of positive energy after a Thai massage session.

Mental 

Thai massage therapy goes deeper than the physical level. It aims to find the root cause of the problem with good communication between you and your therapist. You may get to know your limiting beliefs acting as a roadblock when it comes to healing.

Spiritual 

Spirituality has nothing to do with religion or culture. It is a wholesome outlook toward life. So, it unites instead of dividing; it preaches, and practices love rather than hate; does not promote judgment; aims to heal, and goes beyond race, color, and religion, focusing on the essence of beings, among other things. 

A good Thai massage practitioner will exhibit these qualities and transmit healing energy better.
