Description of the Course
Traditional Thai Massage is an ancient healing practice designed to restore balance, flexibility, and overall well-being. At this Thai Massage School Chiang Mai students have the opportunity to learn this art from the original source of Northern-Style Thai Massage. The Thai Massage Fundamentals Level 1 course is a five-day immersive training that teaches a full-body supine massage routine, focusing on the feet, legs, stomach, hands, arms, shoulders, neck, head, and face.
The course starts with the essential foundations of Thai massage, including its history, philosophy, and core principles. Students then dive into hands-on training, first observing demonstrations from experienced instructors before practicing the techniques themselves. Each step of the routine is carefully explained and corrected to ensure that students apply the right pressure, rhythm, and flow to provide an effective and enjoyable massage.
By the end of the training, students must demonstrate the entire 56-step supine massage routine from memory, ensuring they have truly mastered the technique. Upon completion, they receive a certificate from the Old Medicine Hospital, officially recognizing them as practitioners of Level 1 Thai Massage.
