Massage Treatments Available ...

Below are the massage treatments currently offered. Look out for further treatments becoming available later on.

Traditional Thai Massage

Thai massage is famous the world over and dates back over 2500 years. It is excellent for relaxation and relief of stress, and helps in the curing over 50 common ailments. Among them are muscle pain and sprain, tennis elbow, stiff neck, lower back pain, cramp, stiffness, headache and nervous tension. You lie on a bed or the floor, and a deep massage is given, which includes stretching of the limbs. The massage is performed on the legs, arms, back, feet, hands and neck. Please note that whilst traditional massage is very good for you health wise, there is some pain involved. However, if this is a problem, you can opt for the oil massage instead (see below) which is more soothing and does not involve pain.

As part of the Thai massage we also make use of the herbal ball (shown below). Its helps to soothe aches and pains and increase blood circulation. It contains dried lemongrass, tumeric, Thai ginger, camphor, tamarind and menthol...

Please note that whilst Thai massage can act as an aid to physical ailments such as those listed above, it should not be used in place of professional medical attention. If you have any concerns in relation to your physical health, consult your doctor. )

Foot Massage

Like with other forms of massage, the feet are a specalist area and so foot massage is offered separately. It is an ideal way to relax and aid in blood circulation.

Although it involves only one part of the body, it is still very comprehensive and you get a full hour of treatment. You can also have both a full massage and the foot treatment together at a reduced price (see Prices for details).

Herbal Oil Massage

Although Thai oil massage doesn't have the same therapeutic advantages as the traditional massage, it is very soothing and relaxing and, unlike the traditional massage, does not involve any pain. As its name would suggest, it involves the rubbing of oil into the skin. Specalist Thai fragrant oils are used for maximum effect, providing both mental and physical relaxation. Like both the other forms of Thai massage it is a very good way to relieve stress, helping you take a more relaxed approach to life and those around you.

Thai oil massage offers all the benefits of aromatherapy and 'Swedish' massage and more, so whilst Swedish massage is not specified as a service, our oil massage offers all the same benefits, and more besides thanks to our traditional Thai oils and surroundings.

Herbal Compress Massage

Thai Style Steam Heated Herbal Compress Massage has been practiced by Thai healers for many hundreds of years. The hot herbal compress provides a truly unique experience that stimulates the senses, whilst the deep penetrating warmth and blended herbs sooth and alleviates muscle tension, aches and pains, and trigger a powerful body purification and detoxification process.

Thai Massage

The treatment combines eastern massage techniques with a light pressure patting, rolling, kneading and gentle but deeply effective massage. The heat from the compress carries the herbal essences and the essential oils deep into the skin, underlying tissues and organs. The treatment brings about a deep sensation of comfort and warmth, the compresses are soaked and then steamed to provide a deep penetrating warmth whilst stimulating the body to detoxify and heal itself. The warm herbal compresses are made up of a blend of up to 20 traditional Thai herbs (including turmeric, camphor, tamarind, lemongrass and kaffir lime) renowned for their invigorating, purifying, tension relieving and capacity to improve respiration and soothe general aches and pains.

It is quite an experience to feel the deeply relaxing, penetrating heat from the hot herbal compresses the use of the blended herbs has been scientifically and medically proven to be of benefit to the body's wellbeing. Thai Style hot herbal compress Therapy makes you feel deeply relaxed, whilst providing a feeling of being cleansed and purified, the treatment allows you to let go of all the stress and tensions that are held within the body.

Four Handed Massage

As you might imagine, four handed massage requires two therapists working together to provide two pairs of hands instead of the usual one. Four handed massage usually applies to oil massage, although traditional Thai massage can be factored in if desired.

The main difference between this and two handed massage is that you get twice the experience and is well worth a try! We are able to offer this but recommend at least 24 hours advance notice so that it can be organised.

Couple Massage

If there are two of you and you would like to each receive a massage at the same time then Thai Massage by Tanya can provide this. It has proved popular as many couples like to be able to attend together without having to wait while the other receives their massage.

As with the four handed massage, two therapists will be needed so please book at least 24 hours in advance. You can each choose any of the above therapies, with a minimum of one hour recommended.
