Thai Massage II: Sen Theory
Traditional Thai massage revolves around a network of 10 energy meridians that envelop the body, called "Sen."
Thai traditions teach that there are infinite connections throughout the body, and that these ten "Sen" are the largest channels from which all others emerge.
Onset of pain, disorders and disease is attributed to stagnation or blockage of energy flow throughout the Sen, which are cleared and stimulated using massage, acupressure and assisted yoga stretches.
This 5-day course explains the principles of Thai Sen Theory and Element Theory. Side-lying and sitting positions are introduced, as well as body-walking techniques, and Sen-specific routines for therapeutically targeted sessions.
