Reduce stress
Stress is not necessarily a bad thing. Often, stress is also seen as a positive motivator that helps us perform better, accomplish more goals in life and work. However, too much stress can have negative effects on mental and physical health. Long-term or chronic stress can cause many serious illnesses, including cardiovascular disease and depression.
Thai massage uses gentle pressing and stretching techniques to relax the body. A study done in 2015 showed that Thai massage significantly reduced the level of sAA in saliva – a substance directly linked to stress. Thus, the researchers concluded that Thai massage is more effective in reducing stress than just resting to reduce stress.

Energy Boost
Thai Massage can increase one’s physical energy level. A randomized study examining the effects of Thai massage and Swedish massage in people experiencing fatigue found that Thai massage increased energy and mental stimulation, while Swedish massage improved relaxation and make it easier to fall asleep. Thai massage techniques are based on the concept of energy flows or Sen. Many people believe that there are many Sen – different energy channels in the body. Lotus corresponds to different parts of the body such as bones, muscles, blood and nerves. Some lotuses belong to the subtle channel, affecting the mind and consciousness.
Theory is that the muscles are tense, causing blockages in the Sens. Congestion reduces the flow of vital energy, causing stiffness, pain, and illness. Thai massage uses different techniques to open or close different lotuses, helping to regulate the flow of vital energy.
- Court-type headache relief is a special form of Thai massage that involves applying force to specific energy channels. A 2015 study found that Thai Court-type massage was effective in treating people with chronic tension headaches. At the same time, this massage method also reduces muscle tension.
