Thai Massage: The Original Assisted Stretch Therapy (a.k.a. Lazy Yoga)
Long before “assisted stretch therapy” became a wellness buzzword, Thai massage had already been doing it for over 2,500 years.
Rooted in ancient healing practices, Thai massage blends rhythmic compression, joint mobilization, and deep assisted stretching—earning it the nickname “lazy yoga.” But don’t let that name fool you. While you’re fully supported and relaxed, your body receives the benefits of a deeply restorative, active treatment.
Unlike traditional table massage, Thai massage is done fully clothed on a padded floor mat. Your practitioner uses their hands, feet, knees, and elbows to guide your body through a sequence of dynamic stretches that release tension, increase flexibility, and improve circulation. Think of it as yoga that’s done for you—no effort, just results.
