Massage Thai Way - Poway, Poway

The certified massage therapists at Massage Thai Way know 72,000 ways to lull the body into relaxation. That's because their treatments follow an ancient system of 72,000 energy pathways known as sen lines, a network that purportedly reaches even to the ears, fingers, and toes. They use acupressure techniques to target these trails during Thai massages, varying the firmness of their pressure to client comfort. Clients remain fully clothed and lie on a futon as the therapists unwind overworked areas, bearing down on aches and guiding the physique through a series of yoga-inspired stretches.

These maneuvers are fully customizable, and the therapists alter their poses depending on the client's needs and habits. For example, they might aim to enhance an athlete's mobility, quell a construction worker's lower-back pain, or remedy common office-job ailments, such as fingers that have become lodged between computer keys. Clients are encouraged to discuss their desired amount of pressure with their practitioner before their 60-, 90-, or 120-minute session.
