The key differences are technique, setting and purpose. Thai massage uses stretching, compression and acupressure with the client clothed on a mat: it's more active and energising. Swedish massage uses long gliding strokes and kneading with oil on a massage table: it's more passive and deeply relaxing. Thai massage also works with energy lines, while Swedish focuses primarily on muscle relaxation through the superficial tissue layers.

Book in for a Thai massage once or twice a month to boost your health and reduce stress and strain.

Rest and drink plenty of water. You should avoid having a hot shower, and expect to need the toilet more than usual as a result of your lymph circulation flushing out toxins.

Thai massage is an ancient healing system combining assisted yoga-like stretching, rhythmic acupressure along energy pathways (called 'sen lines') and passive joint mobilisation. Unlike most Western massage styles, traditional Thai massage is performed on a mat on the floor with the client fully clothed. Sessions are active and energising rather than purely relaxing: often described as 'yoga done to you'.
