The primary focus of this course will be to teach you Thai massage acupressure points and stretches in the Supine position. You will learn stretches, acupressure points, and proper use of body weight using thumbs, palms, elbows, knees and feet. The course will also teach you efficient transitions between each of these techniques. The supine massage sequence begins with the feet and ends with the head.
Our courses emphasize hands-on training and practical experience. In addition to working with the instructor and other students, you can practice your new skills on Sirius Health client volunteers on the fourth training day.
This course will begin daily with Thai Yoga (Reusi Dat Ton) and Qigong. It will progress along four streams of study: Professional, Theoretical, Practical, and Ethical. Course content will include an introduction to Thai massage and an overview of Traditional Thai Medicine. We will review contraindications and cautionary sites and learn the Thai Healing Alliance International practitioner code of ethics.
By the end of this course, you will know a 60-minute Traditional Thai massage routine with the client in the supine position.
