FAQs
What is Thai massage?
Thai massage is a form of bodywork performed on a mat on the ground. Unlike classic western massage, the Thai massage client remains fully clothed. Thai massage includes a combination of compressions, kneading, and assisted stretches to bring the client through a wholistic manual therapy treatment that regulates the nervous system as well as heals musculoskeletal and energetic ailments. Thai massage is an integral part of Thai medicine, which developed over many centuries in Thailand with the influences of the medicine practices of neighboring countries such as India and China (Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda, etc). Thai massage has roots in Buddhism as Thailand is a Buddhist country. It can be as spiritually profound or as tactical and practical as you desire.
What should I wear?
Please wear stretchy or loose fitting clothing that is comfortable, covering, and that allow you to stretch and move easily. In Thai massage you will be assisted through a myriad of dynamic stretches and movements on a mat on the ground. It’s important that you are fully clothed and fully comfortable!
How much does it cost?
Treatment sessions run for two hours total and cost $200. I do not accept tips on top of that and I prefer to receive cash, or Venmo.
What if your prices aren’t accessible to me?
I offer a sliding scale price on a limited basis. This offering is for those who are in need of healing bodywork and truly cannot afford it. I’m very happy to chat if you fit into this category. Please reach out. 🤍
Where are you located?
Good question! My Thai massage practice is in a small red building “the red shed” next to my home in downtown Sisters along S Fir Street. Parking is available along the street or in front on my home.
