My thai yoga massage泰式按摩之旅

The more I look at the photos taken the other day, the more self-obsessed I become. What a great picture I took with my partner doing the fish-pose in thai massage! I can't wait to share with everyone! But since so far I haven't asked for her permission to pose this pic on this blog, that i decided to have her face blurred into non-existence!

Can't you see? isn't it the cobra pose in yoga! a cobra pose which stretches the abs, hip-flexors, the spine, the chest and the shoulder joints! but it is a cobra pose practiced with a partner! The reason I am interested in thai massage is that it reminds me of yoga/partner yoga, both of which emphasis the importance of relaxation, balance, compassion and loving-kindness. One of the things that keep impress me, is that thai massage combines many things- thumb-pressing, 經絡, indian 印度醫學, yoga, chinese 醫學, acupuncture, to name a few...... so much to learn, so deep a science it is! and you can reap the benefit of having your whole body relaxed right away after a single session!

But of course, when you switch to become a giver of the massage, thing turns differently. Not only it is like you have completed an hour of exercise, it is also like you have sent messages to the world that you have great power and ability to heal yourself and other.
