Thai-Shiatsu Bodywork

Thai Bodywork is an ancient modality that uses deep palm compressions and supported stretches to open the energy lines of body, allowing chi or vital life energy, to flow more freely. Shiatsu is a Japanese style of finger acupressure that works with precise attunement to address specific blockages in the meridians. Mahina offers a blend of Thai-Shiatsu Bodywork in one session to bring a very powerful and deep treatment releasing tension and stuck energy from the body. This offering is usually performed on a mat on the floor, with the receiver wearing loose-fitting clothes. A Thai-Shiatsu Bodywork session is beneficial for those who prefer deep-tissue work and those who seek relief from pain and muscle tension due to chronic and acute conditions.

Mahina blends Thai Bodywork from the tradition of her teachers Michael Sitzer and Master Teacher Pichest Boonthumme and Shiatsu Bodywork from the teachings of Saul and Lynn Goodman of Shin Tai International.
