Heal your body and Mind with Massage

We often forget about our physical and mental health when we are caught in the busy lifestyle, and if you are interested in holistic approaches to healing your body and mind, we have good news for you. Thai massage can help with physical and mental conditions such as anxiety, stress, depression, and sleeplessness. Here are a few of the mental health benefit of massage you can get at Thai Buri Spa:

Massage Stimulates the Production of Serotonin and Dopamine, Feel-Good Hormones that Helps with Depression

The ancient massage technique from Thailand helps with depression and reduces the isolating feeling. Applying acupressure at specific points in the body and practicing yoga poses can stimulate serotonin and dopamine production, neurotransmitters involved in depression, and that promote well-being, satisfaction, and feelings of happiness. One of the chemicals called Oxytocin is released when people hug or bond socially, and this is also released through non-sexual touch, including massage. Especially when everyone is expected to practice social distance daily and not interact with each other socially, massage can provide a sense of comfort and help reduce the feeling of loneliness. Before a massage session begins, our staff provides clients with a questionnaire asking if they have any injuries, medical conditions, and their overall state of mind. This is a technique used in Thai massage to determine which combination of massage modalities to use. If you already know the pressure level you want, you can also directly communicate with the staff for your best experience.

Massage Helps With Stress and Stress Management

According to The Substance Abuse and Mental Health division of the United States Department of Health and Human Services, Yoga and massage therapy are both listed as alternative approaches to mental health care. By manipulating your muscles in a traditional Thai massage and slow and focused breathing technique, emotional and mental stress can be released. Research has shown that massage reduces cortisol level, which is your body's built-in alarm that controls fear, mood, and motivation, by up to 30 percent. Massage also offers a safe, relaxing space to all away from their stress and anxiety triggers. At Buri Spa, we are ensuring that every customer enjoys their experience by providing a clean room, relaxing ambiance, and comfortable massage bed where you can escape from the city's business for a moment.

Massage Increases Energy

One of the great benefits both mentally and physically of massage is increased circulation. As traditional Thai massage works similarly to yoga poses, it helps with blood and lymph circulation through gentle stretches and poses assisted by practitioners. This yoga-like pose increases blood circulation, which fills the body tissues with oxygen. Thai massage also uses energy work to correct blockages, deficiencies, and imbalances, which smoothes the positive energy flow that leads to a healthy wellness life. You will immediately notice the difference and lead to a refreshed, clear, and stable energy flow throughout the day. Regular visits to massage studios will boost your lymphatic system, which helps your body to detoxify on its own more easily. Certain poses can particularly help with the targeted area, so be sure to communicate with practitioners about your body and let them know if you feel any discomfort during stretches or poses.
