In A Myofascial Approach to Thai Massage, the author takes a radically
different approach to Thai Massage by redefining the sen lines in myofascial
terms. He provides a coherent system illustrating the function and benefits
of Thai Massage through its actions on the myofascial network, lymph and
blood flow. In addition, the author questions some of the more dubious moves
in Thai Massage; looks at the ?spiritual' aspects of Thai Massage in terms
of presence, attention and the therapist/client relationship; takes a unique
view of Thai Massage and opens the way for further exploration of massage in
the myofascial field; and includes some examples of working with clients to
illustrate the themes. Although specifically about Thai Massage, content
covers many aspects of the therapist/patient relationship . well explored in
psychotherapy but surprisingly little covered in massage courses.
