Thai massage
I just had a Thai massage and it was wonderful. Thought I should give details as one reader wanted to know what Thai massage is? It is also also called Thai yoga massage, because the therapist uses her hands, knees, legs, and feet to move you into a series of yoga-like stretches. It is like doing yoga without any work, it is both relaxing and energising. Muscle compression, joint mobilisation, and acupressure are also used during the treatment.
It is an oil-less massage performed on the floor and designed to increase flexibility, decrease stress. The technique used involves a unique combination of gentle rocking and stretching using range of motion and acupressure techniques applied through clothing - the girls are puny, but are very strong. I go to a Thai Spa which is 2 minutes away from my house and all the girls and boys are Thai off course. It costs about 30 US Dollars = R 300 South African Rands and they give you a cup of green tea after the session.
