Thai massage is a unique and ancient form of bodywork that combines acupressure, assisted stretching, and yoga-like postures to improve flexibility, relieve muscle tension, and promote overall wellness. At Body Option Clinic, our experienced therapists offer authentic Thai massage in Vancouver, using traditional techniques to provide a deeply relaxing and therapeutic experience.
Originating in Thailand over 2,500 years ago, Thai massage is rooted in the ancient Indian Ayurvedic tradition and incorporates elements of Chinese medicine. This holistic approach to healing focuses on balancing the body’s energy pathways, or “sen,” to promote overall health and well-being. Thai massage is based on the belief that physical, emotional, and mental health are interconnected, and by restoring balance, one can achieve a state of harmony and relaxation.

A Thai massage session at Body Option Clinic typically lasts between 60 to 120 minutes. Unlike other massage styles, Thai massage is performed on a padded mat on the floor, with the client wearing loose, comfortable clothing that allows for ease of movement. No oils or lotions are used during the session, allowing for smooth transitions between assisted stretches and various massage techniques.
The therapist will use their hands, forearms, elbows, knees, and feet to apply pressure, stretch muscles, and guide the client through a series of yoga-like postures. The massage is often described as a “dance” between therapist and client, with the therapist using their body weight to apply pressure and guide the client through the movements.
During the session, it is essential to maintain open communication with your therapist about your comfort level and any areas of concern. The therapist will adjust the pressure and techniques accordingly to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
