This
ancient healing art originated in India, and was preserved over the millennia
in Buddhist temples. It was used as part of the meditation preparation. The
original sources of Thailand Traditional Massage were lost, but the oral
tradition survived, and then declined after the introduction of western
medicine. Recently Thailand massage has re-emerged as a healing art form with
the increased interest from Thai's and westerners.

energy system, integrative exercises, relevant oriental meridian systems,
relationships to anatomy and physiology, correct body mechanics, and the gentle
rocking unique to this massage form, the northern or Chiang Mai style.
