This 30 hour, 4 day course establishes the Foundations of a professional Thai Massage practice, covering techniques done in the supine (feet to face of the client) and seated position.

The concept of meridians, energy lines (Sen), and healing with loving-kindness as an intention are all introduced and discussed, as well as, a history of Thai Massage and its connections to Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Learn by watching & practicing over 64 techniques to make a 1 ½ hour Thai Massage routine that incorporates therapeutic acupressure points, passive stretches, and a basic understanding of Sen lines, with a deep focus on abdominal work.
