Hoàn Kiếm Trip Overview
Many people believe that the health benefits of Thai massage include lowering stress, boosting energy, and improving athletic performance.
Thai massage uses gentle pressure and stretching techniques to relax the whole body. This is an ancient healing practice that originated in India. It dates back to around 2,500–7,000 years ago.
The technique that Thai massage practitioners use is very different from what people in the West may be accustomed to. Unlike Swedish or shiatsu massage techniques, in which a person passively lies on a bed, the client lies on the floor and participates more actively in the massage.

Itinerary
Thai massage has many health benefits, from lowering stress to relieving muscular tension. It can even increase energy. For a Thai massage, the client usually lies on the bed.

The therapist may use their hands, knees, legs, or feet to help manipulate the person’s body into different positions.
