Specific Types of Massage
Internal Organ Qi Massage (Chi Nei Tsang)
Chi Nei Tsang is an abdominal massage therapy which helps to remove toxins and negative emotions that are stored in the body. The internal organs play vital functions such as digestion, immune response, and hormone regulation. It is also responsible for creating “Qi”- life force energy. In eastern traditional medicine, it is believed obstruction of Qi flow in these organs can cause dysfunction and lead to chronic illnesses. Chi Nei Tsang treatment can release any blockages and tensions in the abdomen by using various massage techniques, breathwork and visualisation.

Pregnancy Care
Maintaining health and well-being during pregnancy is essential, as this period brings many physical, emotional, and spiritual changes. A mother’s overall condition can significantly impact her baby’s development, making self-care more important than ever.
Pregnancy massage offers gentle support to relieve common discomforts - such as lower back pain and swelling in the legs and feet. It also encourages deep relaxation, helping to reduce stress and improve sleep quality.

Postpartum Care
This is a special, nourishing treatment designed for new mothers, aimed at restoring uterine tone and relieving postnatal exhaustion through the use of herbs and gentle heat therapy. The treatment focuses on warming the body, as body heat is often lost during childbirth. Applying warmth helps to rebalance the body’s internal temperature and may support the prevention of postpartum-related illnesses.
This therapy can usually begin once the fresh wound has healed - typically around 7 to 15 days after birth, although it may take longer for those who have had a caesarean delivery.
For best results, intensive care is recommended: three to five sessions over one to two weeks, followed by regular treatments as the body continues to heal.
*For those who have experienced preeclampsia or had high blood pressure, this treatment may not be suitable. Please consult with your health practitioners and Manami to discuss the options.

Different types of massage may be included in your treatment.
Herbal Ball Compress
A herbal ball contains various healing plants which can be applied in a warm or cold compression. Applying a gentle pressure with a herbal ball can reduce inflammation, relieve physical
pains and restore the body back to its optimal state. It is often used as a warm compression to promote blood and lymphatic circulations and to induce deep relaxation. Herbal ball compression is particularly helpful for those individuals; elderly, postpartum women, and recovering from injuries like bruises, strains, sprains, arthritis and tendonitis.
Tok Sen
Tok Sen is a unique healing modality that has been developed in northern Thailand. It involves a special wooden mallet and wedge to gently tap along the body’s energy lines. This tapping generates mechanical and sound vibration deep into muscles, tendons, and fascia to alleviate physical tensions and harmonise the energy flow. The rhythmic tapping sounds also can lead to deep relaxation and restore the nervous system. Tok Sen is often combined with other massage techniques and may be applied in the beginning of the treatment to loosen up the rigidity.
Shiatsu Massage
Shiatsu is a unique massage technique developed in Japan. It is a Zen healing art and usually performed without oil through light comfortable clothing. Shiatsu means "finger pressure" in Japanese and treatment involves fingers and palms pressure on various
trigger points to release any stagnation in the body and enhance the body's own healing ability. It helps to regulate the autonomic nervous system, alleviate musculoskeletal pain, increase joint mobilities, promote circulation and eliminates the toxins out from the body.
Thai Massage
Thai massage employs stretching and deep pressure to relieve tensions and enhance flexibility and range of motion.Thai massage is known as "Lazy Yoga" because the recipient only needs to relax and allow the practitioner to take over movement of their body. Therefore, it is great for someone who'd like to increase their flexibility. Traditionally, Thai massage is performed through light comfortable clothing which allows to incorporate wide range of stretching techniques.
