HISTORY OF TRADITIONAL THAI MASSAGE

The traditional Thai massage is an ancestral technique that has its origins in Thailand, more than 2,500 years ago. Doctor Shivago Komarpahj, Indian doctor and friend of Buddha, would have been inspired by yoga to develop this therapy. The therapy provides access to the well-being of the mind, through body massage.

 

Initially developed exclusively for Buddhist monks, this practice has over the centuries, grown among peoples. To the point of becoming an integral part of the true Thai art of living.

 

It is in the " Temple of the Lying Buddha ", also called temple of Wat Po in Bangkok, that are preciously preserved the first texts dealing with these massage techniques. This temple is one of the oldest and biggest temples of the capital.
