Traditional Burmese Massage (also known as Myanmar Massage or Burmese Touch) draws heavily on Indian, Thai, Chinese as well as Tibetan massage techniques and theories, and is designed for general health. Traditional Burmese massage sessions do not use oils creams, lotions or creams or pastes. But, it’s important to know that this may differ depending on the location where the massage is being performed, as well as the method by which it’s done. The usual Burmese massage therapy is warm, short focused, and designed for relaxation. The objective of any massage is to assist clients in reducing tension in their muscles, improve the flexibility and mobility. improve blood circulation and lymphatic drainage, improve mental performance to rejuvenate and rejuvenate the body, relieve spasms and muscle pain and reduce stress. It is the main goal of massage therapy to create tranquility and peace that can help clients recuperate faster from stressors that are acute.
We’ve learned how to adapt the traditional Myrtle or Chamomile massage techniques for different styles and cultures in western nations, such as the US, Japan, Canada and Australia. In countries in the east, like one called Myanmar massage is more a part of the routine of life, rather than the event of a religious nature. Over my life, I’ve experienced consistent experiences with Thai massage, Burmese massage, and any other type of massage. It was because of an group of Far East students who are descendants of „Druk Yai“, a traditional Thai massage expert. This practice is not as diverse as the other types of massages that are used across Thailand. But, it has its own distinct healing techniques and advantages.
I worked as an Asian massage practitioner for six years in the northern part of Thailand. I didn’t see the same wide use of „Myrrh“ like I observed in other regions of Thailand. It is likely that the Thai language isn’t equipped with the ability to accurately translate the word into English. I spent about two years in northern Myanmar so I have a lot of knowledge about myrrh practices in the region. I’ve seen some shifts in the past that I believe could be caused by the transition from myrrh-based healing towards „herbal medicine.“
Myrrh isn’t found in Thailand’s other. This is likely due to acceptance of natural and herbal treatments. Massages in Thailand continue to use oils, creams, and waxes. This is due to the numerous messages (masseurs) used, which are employed to offer massage services. Massages that are based on oil are believed to be „luxurious,“ so many Thai massage spas keep to this traditional practice.
Many massaging spas in Thailand include those in northern Thailand, have also adopted the idea of aromatherapy , as well as traditional herbal medicine. These are also used across the United States, Canada and Europe. However, many of the massaging spas in Thailand I’ve visited don’t practice these types of traditional healing art. These types of approaches are not in accordance with the practices of larger massage spas in northern Thailand.
My experience using traditional Burmese massage showed a distinct style that was not found in the westerners I had been studying. This particular style that I would describe as „Myanma“ or „Myrobalan,“ involves gentle pressure being applied to specific Acupoints on the body. This is done primarily through kneading. This technique uses lengthy strokes, which aren’t common in Thai massages, where the practitioner is only using one hand. I discovered that following the massage my skin felt softer and I was able to sleep the best of all worlds.
My research also revealed that the traditional Burmese massage is often accompanied with the consumption of a specific herbal mix. Mistletoe, Brahmi, and Lavan are some of the most commonly used ingredients. Though the herbs are different from one region to another but the goal is to help you feel a sense of well-being. Alongside these traditional Burmese massage techniques, my research revealed that in the northern part of Thailand numerous massage therapists make use of Ostrich feathers and ginseng to help clients suffering from muscular spasms that are caused by arthritis.
Massages for the entire body are well-known for its many benefits. It provides a relaxing effect on your body and mind. This was evident right from the first time I experienced it. Although the Thais don’t consider these techniques of massage for the entire body for me, I can say that after receiving them I felt more alert and energetic. I felt a sense peace that reached my whole body. I was able to accomplish my daily tasks with no stress and anxiety because of the basic techniques my Myanmar massage therapist taught.
