Traditional Thai Massage is an ancient healing art that has been practiced for over 2,500 years. At Prasong Thai Spa in NYC, this authentic bodywork combines acupressure, assisted stretching, and rhythmic compression to restore balance, improve mobility, and release deep-seated tension.
Unlike oil-based massages, traditional Thai massage is performed fully clothed on a comfortable mat, allowing the therapist to guide your body through a series of gentle stretches inspired by yoga. This approach helps activate energy lines (Sen lines), encouraging natural energy flow throughout the body.
