Thai Yoga Massage

Origins of That Yoga Massage:
Traditional Thai Massage has its roots in the Indian systems of Yoga and Ayurveda. It is believed to have been developed by Jivaka Kumar Baccha, the legendary founder of Thai massage. He was a physician to the Sangha, the order of Buddhist monks and nuns, at the time of the Buddha. The Thais call him Doctor Shivago and to this day honor him as “The Father of Medicine”. Around 2000 years ago Thai Massage was brought from India to Thailand along with Buddhism. Since then it has been practiced, developed and handed down through the generations. It was never seen as just massage but as a spiritual practice, and until fairly recently mostly practiced in wats, the Thai Buddhist temples.

A Brief History of Ocean’s Thai Massage Training:
Ocean’s love for Thai Massage began in Vancouver, BC in 2008, where she studied under Gordon Waselnuk, at his Thai Yoga Massage School. Two years later her studies took her to the Sunshine School in Chiang Mai, Northern Thailand and to Southern Thailand where she studied under Ralf Marzen, founder of Mudita School of Thai Yoga Massage.
