Description
Thai Yoga Massage combines assisted stretching and acupressure to release physical tension and promote relaxation. The assisted yoga poses loosen tight muscles to improve flexibility and boost circulation, while the pressure techniques shift the nervous system into a parasympathetic state which promotes relaxation.
This workshop will introduce some simple massage techniques that participants can give and receive with a partner. Please wear loose, comfortable clothing that allows for a full range of motion. If you have a yoga mat, bring it along with you.
Whether you are feeling nervous before a presentation or exhausted by the daily grind, this workshop will provide a safe space to relax and refresh.
