Bridges the practice of Thai Yoga Massage with its Ayurvedic roots to offer a healing modality. This work explains the principles of Ayurveda and recommends daily practices for each of the three main body types - vatta, pitta, and kapha. It features 50 illustrated full-body Thai Yoga massage postures, and massage flows for each body type.
The traditional healing arts of Ayurveda and Thai Yoga Massage have a deep and integrated relationship that provides an unparalleled modality for restoring body, mind, and spirit. Although it originated in India, over the centuries Ayurveda has been assimilated into the predominant Thai culture and has evolved into a distinctive folk medicine. With the growing popularity of Ayurveda and Thai Yoga Massage, there is a renewed interest in reuniting these practices into a powerful therapeutic alliance.
Thai Yoga Therapy for Your Body Type bridges the practice of Thai Yoga Massage with its ancient Ayurvedic roots to offer a complete and holistic healing modality. The authors first explain in detail the fundamental principles of Ayurveda and then recommend daily practices for each of the three main body types: vatta, pitta, and kapha. Practitioners learn how to customise their work with the appropriate massage approach, recommended yoga asanas, breathing techniques, and diet and lifestyle tips.
More than 50 illustrated, full-body Thai Yoga Massage postures are presented as well as massage flows for each body type. The authors indicate the Ayurvedic benefits of each posture and detail any precautions that should be followed in this dynamic practice of transformative healing.
