Ancient Recipe with Healing Properties
Whait is a Thai Herbal Bodywork session and what are the benefits? Thai Herbal bodywork uses hot herbal compresses that are applied to the body to alleviate pain and inflammation by opening skin pores and transferring medicating heat to the muscles, joints and energy lines. Imagine being covered in herbal heating pads! Ahhhh
Herbal compress therapy helps to harmonize and relax the body, to loosen energy blockages. Smelling and inhaling the herb-infused vapors also induces deep relaxation. The herbs have a balancing effect on the mind, and help to reduce stress. Using hot compresses on the chest, throat and sinuses can also loosen mucus and open up the nasal passages.
The compresses are homemade with loving care, using an ancient Thai recipe which includes the following:
