Sussex Thai Massage School Celebrates Tenth Anniversary Of Introductory & Accredited Practitioner Diploma Courses
Traditional Thai Massage is often referred to as Thai Massage, Thai Bodywork, Thai Yoga Massage or applied yoga for lazy people.
A Thai Massage session has more ingredients than a yoga workout.
This clothed bodywork has a blend and fusion of exquisite Asian techniques including thumb pressure similar to Chinese acupressure which works along energy lines similar to meridians or nadis.
Thai massage reflects the four divine states of mind of Buddhist teaching.
A lovely description of Thai Massage is "the physical application of loving kindness."
Buddhist monks traditionally performed Thai Massage in temples as a means of invigorating the mind, body and spirit.
Christine Townley is the founder and director of the Sussex Thai Massage School, in Brighton.
Trained to Advanced and Teacher Training level she is one of the first to introduce Thai Massage to the UK in 1992.
With over 15 years experience as a practitioner and also a qualified teacher she has taught professionally to Practitioner level for over 10 years.
