Thai massage,Thailand

Known in Thailand as นวดแผนโบราณ (Nuat phaen boran, meaning "ancient/traditional massage"). Thai massage originated in India and is based on ayurveda and yoga. It was believed that the massage art was brought over to Thailand by Shivago Komarpaj over 2500 years ago. The technique combines massage with yoga-like positions during the course of the massage; the northern style emphasizes stretching while the southern style emphasizes acupressure.
