You may have encountered an unordinary type of Thai massage on the internet or in photos where the therapist performs a massage on the patient whilst looking like a warrior. This is what they call the Thai Warrior Massage. This unique technique is performed by the best of the best in the business who understands the importance of why it benefits a client.
The Thai Warrior massage was grown as a modern unique Thai massage therapy from Thailand with the combination of the traditional massage and the Ruesri Datton (Thai Hermit Exercise). The Ruesri Datton is also known as the yoga massage that was assembled in Thailand. Whilst it follows the fundamentals of Thai traditional massage, it also incorporates the use of rhythmic, acupressure, deep stretching, and gentle twisting. The use of these techniques allows the human body to have tension relief while also promoting the benefits of balance and circulation of energy in the body.
The reason why this massage received its popularity is that it won an award from the World Championship back in 2017 receiving 2 goals medals. These gold medals were awarded from The Best Asian Massage World Championship 2017 and the Gold World Championship in Massage 2017. Nowadays you can find massage & spa parlors in Bangkok that are offering this unique technique to their customers for a decent price. This must be experienced at least once in your life.
Rest assured, looks can be deceiving as this is not an easy massage to learn right off the bat. It takes a strong mentality and strength to understand the pressure points of the body and how to perform it in a unique way. As mentioned, it follows the similarities of a traditional Thai massage, but still gives off a beautiful performance.
Today at Loft-Thai Massage & Spa, our licensed and certified therapists have learned this unique massage and are ready to now perform it for all customers around the world. As our therapists can also speak English, this will not be a problem if you are ever facing any pain tolerance or if you would like to consult first with one of our team members.
Loft Thai Spa is proud to announce our official collaboration with Master Jack Sharman to promote Thai culture and perpetrate the ancient Thai massage technique, Thai Warrior Massage.
Thai Warrior Massage is a traditional Thai therapy that was used to heal injured warriors returning from war before the 13th century. Despite being prohibited by the government due to its primitive nature, it continued to be practiced in private and was greatly supported by King Rama IX Bhumibol Adulyadej during his reign from 1950 to 2016. Today, thanks to the establishment of the Thai Patent Protection Act and the Thai Traditional Medicine Institute, Thai Warrior Massage is experiencing a renaissance and gaining popularity worldwide.
The modern version of Thai Warrior Massage, developed by Master Jack Sharman or Mr. Pathompon Aiyarattanaruk, combines traditional massage with Ruesri Datton or yoga massage. The therapy includes rhythmic massage, acupressure, gentle twisting, and deep stretching to aid tension relief and promote the balance of circulating life force energy in the body. This unique therapy provides an extraordinary sense of well-being for both the recipients and therapists.
In 2017, Thai Warrior Massage gained international recognition when therapist Mrs. Naree Seume, trained by Master Jack Sharman, won two gold medals in the World Championship in Massage held by the International Massage Association. She won the Best Asian Massage World Championship and a Gold World Championship in Massage.
