Contrary to Western style massage, traditional Thai massage does not
primarily work with the physical body but rather with the energy body of
man.
The kneading of muscles, which dominates in Western style massage, is
absent from Thai massage: energy points are pressed or general pressure is
used instead. There is a lot of stretching involved and many exercises
might well be described as 'applied Hatha Yoga' or 'applied physical Yoga'.
Rather than using the term 'Thai massage', it wouldn't be a bad idea to
actually call it 'Yoga massage' since that's what this art essentially is.
