What is Thai Massage?

Thai Massage, rooted in Thailand’s traditions, encompasses a distinctive approach to therapeutic bodywork. This technique is performed on the floor, using comfortable mats that span an area of 1.5 m * 2 m. Unlike other massage styles, Thai Massage does not involve the use of oils or creams. Instead, the client remains fully dressed throughout the session. For your utmost comfort, pillows are readily available to support your head or any other body parts as necessary.

The benefits of Thai Massage

Thai massage history has been pushed back thousands of years, and it is now evident to the broad public how powerful this practice can be.

When practised traditionally, Thai Massage can help loosen body tightness and tension . Other well-known benefits of Thai Massage are improved blood and body fluid circulation, including lymphatic fluid.
Also, it helps reduce swelling, mobilise joints, and achieve deep relaxation.
In comparison to more Western massage practices, like Myotherapy or Remedial Massage, Thai massage has a more dynamic approach, and it is more suitable for patients who like to have contact with the ground and already practice a base of types of practices, such as Yoga, gardening, dancing and more.

What to Expect from a Traditional Thai Massage?

Why Melbourne massage and treatment

Giovanni is a Clinical Myotherapist, and this is part of a unique experience when receiving a Thai Massage at Melbourne Massage and Treatment:

As per all the services offered at Melbourne Massage and Treatment, you will be guided through Range of Motion and functional tests before a Thai Massage session.
Thai massage is practised on a ground mat so that you can easily be seated or lying supine/side position. This is one of the main differences between Thai Massage and other practices, where the massage is offered on a table or chair.
DO NOT EXPECT a no pain, no gain approach. Any massage aims to stimulate your nervous system to kickstart a recovery process. That said, the pain stimulation has to stay within your comfort zone. Extra suffering does not mean better recovery.

Thai Massage Prices

Given the nature of the treatment, Giovanni prefers to set a 60-minute limit for Thai Massage

Thai Massage Contraindications

Thai Massage is generally a safe practice, but a series of presentations are considered Absolute Contraindications.

Absolute Contraindications

Before the session starts, you will be guided through an assessment to ensure Thai Massage is your best practice. Giovanni reserves the right to refuse this treatment if he believes it is unsafe for you.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Giovanni is a highly skilled and caring professional who helped me break down lumpy scar tissue. He is a true professional, I can’t recommend him enough! I no longer have any of those lumps! It was a daunting time for me yet he always made me feel at ease with his calm demeanour; and knowing his impressive qualifications and training/work background really helped too. The treatment plan was clearly laid out, he explained the science behind MLD and how it assists the body in reorganising tissue to become smooth again. Even though relaxation wasn’t a goal of the session, I always left feeling a lot more relaxed  - the space, Giovanni’s demeanour and the practise has that effect. Knowing I was in great hands made me trust the process. Thank you so much Giovanni! Would also love to see you for exercise help at some point 😊

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t recommend Giovanni at Melbourne Massage and Treatment highly enough. I had been suffering debilitating shoulder pain for more than 12 months and had tried multiple therapies with little success. My doctor suggested I see Giovanni after hearing excellent feedback from other patients — and I’m so glad she did. After just one session, the shoulder pain that had been tormenting me for so long disappeared. Giovanni has an exceptional understanding of anatomy and biomechanics, and his ability to quickly identify and treat the root cause of a problem is impressive. He is also professional, personable and easy to be around. I was so impressed that I now attend regular fitness classes with him to improve my range of motion and strength. Highly recommended.

I’m grateful for the time Giovanni has spent a filling out the application for compression stockings subsidised through the SWEP program. I wouldn’t think of going anywhere else.
