Thai Massage: Stretching the Lower Body

  • Here's the Rub, LLC 4043 North Ravenswood Avenue Chicago, IL, 60613 United States (map)

This course will introduce students to Thai Massage, offering tools that can be implemented on a traditional Thai floor mat or on a massage table. After a discussion of the history of Thai massage and its roots in Ayurvedic medicine, we will learn Thai massage stretches that focus on the lower body. The aim is to mobilize muscles and connective tissue, creating space for balance in the hips and lower limbs.

Course fee: $90 for this class alone, $150 for both Lower and Upper Body classes. Massage therapists receive six CEs for each.
