~ Healing Power of Kind Touch ~ Thai Massage Workshop

Discover the healing power of kind touch and attentive listening. Thai Massage is a form of bodywork based on the Buddhist principle of “metta”: loving kindness and compassion for all sentient beings. When we hold and move someone with this intention it communicates a sense of safety that allows their myofascia (muscular and connective tissues) and nervous system to unwind and relax.

Tamara will guide you step-by-step through easy Thai massage techniques,  where the “giver” or active partner carefully moves the “receiving” or passive partner providing joint mobilization, acupressure, traction and compression to encourage the release of tension from the myofascia.

Additional benefits of Thai massage may include:

Benefits may include:

✨ Stress relief & nervous system co-regulation
