One of our favourite massage forms is Thai Massage, and, KAI THAI, with their amazing settings and beautiful Spa's, brings you the best of Thai Land and the ultimate stress relief.
Most of the therapists, if not all, are dinkum from Thai Land, hardly speak English, except for, 'too hard?', or 'you want softer?', but it matters not, as they are going to give you all the heaven you need. These ladies have been given the gift of touch, and know what the best pressure is for your tired, hardened, knotted muscles. You will immediately feel a sense of calm as you walk in the front door of any of the spas and are welcomed to the massage rooms. And no matter how hard a massage gets, somehow you will still find yourself drifting into the abyss that is Thai La-La-Land. You may not want to leave. The atmosphere and the natural peace the ladies surround themselves in is hypnotic, addictive and totally infectious.
Why Thai Massage, as opposed to other massages? Firstly, let us just warn you, its a very invasive form of massage, and may feel a little uneasy at first if you are not ware, but its who they are and how they roll, Thai Massage, is very up close and personal. They use their entire bodies and not just their hands, so prepare for that part. Once you've accepted this, you relax and let them play and manipulate your body in ways you wish you could do yourself, and don't be fooled, these little ladies are moer strong, as they will ruk & druk you like no wrestler can, but the difference is that you will love it, and let them rag doll you into a deep peaceful sleep.
During a Thai Massage, the therapist uses her body to move the client into a variety of positions, and includes muscular compression, joint mobilization and acupressure. The 'ruk & druk' positions are very yoga-like and take relaxation to a whole new level. This also helps improve overall circulation. But not only are your joints being mobilized and your muscles receiving the best massage they've ever had, but also the best stretch you've ever had too. This then allows for a greater range of motion, which with the increased flexibility reduces muscle stress and strain and helps prevent trip and fall incidents.
But even though there is a serious workout and push-and-pull session, its also incredibly relaxing. The massage aspect, after acupressure allows for deep muscular release, reduced blood pressure, and enhances the circulatory system by increasing the circulation to the whole body and with it more oxygen to the brain.
This deepened form of induced relaxation, promotes a deeper nights sleep as well, which allows the body to heal itself physically, and leaves you feeling more refreshed upon waking.
And even though you will feel so relaxed afterwards, you will feel unbelievably rejuvenated the next day and have more energy than you've had in ages. Our advice, book a massage and go home and have a nap afterwards, and then have a light dinner, watch a light hearted movie and go back to sleep. You will feel like you have had a holiday, guaranteed!!!
