Massage in Brighton : Focus on the Thai Massage practice


Engaging in strenuous activities such as running, cycling or lifting , or you simply want to take a break and relax a Thai massage in Brighton will give you the healing you’re looking for, both physically and mentally! 

Research has repeatedly shown the people who get a Thai massage before an exam or other potentially stressful situation showed a significant decrease in anxiety and respiratory rates, as well as a significant increase in white blood cells and natural killer cell activity, suggesting a benefit to the immune system. 


The Techniques vary – but whichever one you go for, try not to fight the masseuse – stay loose so she can work properly. Thai massage is not for everyone, but most people walk out far less tense than when they went in. 

What is the difference between a European or Swedish massage and a Thai massage?
Unlike European or Swedish style, traditional Thai massage focuses on circulation and pressure points, promoting internal health as well as muscular flexibility throughout. The traditional procedure is centuries old. Using hands, elbows, knees and feet, the therapist applies pressure to numerous points along the body’s meridians, or ‘life-power lines’, and manipulates the customer’s body and limbs. The aim is to encourage an even and harmonious flow of physical energy. 


"Often people are stressed in our culture. Stress-related disorders make up between 80%-and-90% of the ailments that bring people to family practice physicians. What they require is someone to listen, someone to touch them, someone to care. Unfortunately, that does not exist in modern medicine.

One of the complaints heard frequently is that doctors don't touch their patients any more. Touch just isn't there. Years ago massage was a big part of nursing. There was so much care, so much touch, so much goodness conveyed through massage. Now nurses for the most part are as busy as physicians. They're writing charts, dealing with insurance notes, they're doing procedures and often there is no room for massage any more.

We believe that massage therapy is absolutely vital in the healing process and not only in the hospital environment, because it relieves stress, it is obviously foundational in the healing process anytime and anywhere."

You can clearly see that Thai massage or Thai yoga massage in Brighton is not only popular but actually helps to make you healthier! People who have experienced a Thai massage report that they have an increased sense of daily well-being, better posture and more energy than ever before.

If you haven’t tried a Thai massage in Brighton there’s no time like the present to get started on a healthier, happier life!
