Thai massage has a history of more than 2,500 years and has been practised as a natural treatment to improve the body. The treatment by Thai massage is also preferable for allergy sufferers as it does not use drugs.
During the reign of the 27th King Narai of the Ayutthayu Dynasty around 1661, a letter from the French ambassador, Saimorn Doulbevee, states that at that time, Thai massage was used to treat illnesses. Thai massage has been handed down from master to disciple since ancient times and has now been improved so that only the truly necessary treatments remain.
All the different procedures of the ancient Thai massage that have been handed down since ancient times have been collected and recorded on the murals of Wat Pho, so that anyone can study them freely by means of the murals.
In 1906, during the reign of King Rama V, a special royal doctor was assembled to translate the texts, which had previously been written in Bari and Sanskrit, into easy-to-understand Thai and compiled into a book, the Royal Medical Book (Tham La Paesak Song Kro). The Royal Massage Method (Thamlar Paesak Nuwat Chabap Luong) was also written in this medical book.
On 30 May 1962, a massage school for Thai masseurs, the Wat Pho Thai Traditional Medical School, was established in Wat Pho by Dr Pong Thom Yannim and his group. The school still teaches and transmits the massage methods that have been practised since ancient times.
Thai massage uses finger pressure and palm pressure to fully relax the stiff muscles, and then stretches them slowly. Finally, the distorted spine and joints are adjusted, and it is a treatment that combines the good points of both yoga and massage.
The twisting positions, of the body, in traditional Thai massage have been selected only as necessary from the massages handed down.
In particular, the twisting positions are only performed after a health screening is issued. It improves blood flow in the body, relaxes the muscles and at the same time relaxes the brain, providing both physical and mental comfort.
