Thai Massage Benefits: What is Thai Massage or Nuad Bo-Rarn?
The massage generally follows designated lines ("sen") in the body. The legs and feet of the giver can be used to position the body or limbs of the recipient.
Thai Massage Benefits
The massage stimulates the release of endorphins, the body’s natural pain relievers, through touch. There are roughly 5 million touch receptors in our skin, 3,000 with the fingertip alone.
Pressure on the feet and legs is sedating, sometimes includes hypnotic or altered states of consciousness. Thai massage is an effective method of calming the nervous system.
The Practice

The recipient remains clothed during a treatment. There is constant body contact between the giver and the receiver. But rather than rubbing on muscles, the body is compressed, pulled, stretched and rocked, for instance.
However, the recipient wears loose, comfortable clothing and lies on a mat or firm mattress on the floor. In Thailand, a dozen or so persons may be receiving massage simultaneously in one large room. The true ancient style of the massage requires that the massage be performed solo with just the giver and receiver.
