WHAT IS THAI FOOT MASSAGE?
Thai foot massage is a traditional healing practice that combines acupressure, gentle stretching, and rhythmic movements. Unlike typical western massages, which often involve the use of oils and focus on relaxation, Thai foot massage is performed fully clothed and emphasizes the body's energy lines, known as "Sen."
practitioners use their hands to apply pressure to specific points and stretch the body. This can create a deep sense of relaxation and improve flexibility. The treatment focuses on stimulating the Sen lines, aiming to balance the body's energy and promote overall wellbeing.
HOW CAN IT MAKE A DIFFERENCE?
Thai foot massage extends beyond just physical relief, addressing emotional, mental and energetic wellbeing. it focuses on the body’s energy lines (Sen), helping to clear blockages and promote a harmonious flow of energy, which can enhance overall vitality.

WHAT WILL I EXPERIENCE DURING MY TREATMENT?
Your initial treatment will be extended to allow for a discussion of your current health status, ensuring that your treatment is both safe and customised to your individual requirements. It's crucial to consider all aspects of your life to maximise the benefits and results. Before your treatment, you will need to fill out a consultation form. Rest assured, all provided information will be handled with the utmost confidentiality.
I recommend wearing loose, comfortable clothing for your appointment. You'll remain fully clothed but will need to remove your shoes and socks. Please note that I’ll also need access to your lower legs and knees, so trousers or leggings that can be easily rolled up are ideal.
The treatment starts with a foot cleanse using hot towels, followed by a soothing foot massage. Gentle pressure will then be applied to specific reflex areas on the feet. All products used during the treatment are 100% natural and vegan friendly.
HOW MIGHT I FEEL AFTER MY TREATMENT?
The aim of thai foot massage is to encourage the body to establish a natural healthy balance and this may or may not promote a healing crisis. This is perfectly normal and is a sign that your body is healing and detoxifying holistically on many levels. Please do not be concerned if you experience any of the following symptoms below:
* Cold like symptoms (more mucus, sore throat, cough)
* Emotional distress (feeling low or crying)
* Conditions seem worse
* Increased perspiration
* Headaches (if prone)
*Dreams (can be vivid)
* Low energy levels
* Increased thirst
PLEASE NOTE
- These are temporary symptoms and should last no longer than 24-48 hours.
