Thai Bodywork with Michael Sitzer, L.M.T.

Thai Yoga Bodywork has been called “lazy person’s yoga,” as one gets all the benefits of a yoga class without applying any muscular exertion. It is both relaxing and therapeutic, mixing passive yoga postures into a flowing sequence of massage techniques. This bodywork incorporates assisted stretches, positional release therapy, muscle energy techniques, soft tissue manipulation and joint mobilization. Thai Yoga Bodywork begins to stretch and open the body while deeply relaxing the client.  Afterwards, clients tend to feel as if they have been given a new body, one that is more limber, awake & alive. It is a true ‘full body tune-up.’ This work is also effective for treating specific neruo- muscular injuries, especially muscle pain and spasm. Sessions are practiced on a padded floor mat while wearing comfortable clothes. Thai Yoga Bodywork is a delight to both give and receive! It’s time to try it!
