Thai Yoga Massage

Assisted Stretch • Passive Movement • Nervous System Reset

Thai Yoga Massage is a floor-based bodywork experience rooted in assisted stretching, rhythmic compression, and guided passive movement. Often described as “lazy yoga,” this practice gently moves the body through supported stretches to improve mobility, circulation, and overall ease.

Sessions are performed fully clothed on a mat and focus on opening the hips, spine, shoulders, and joints while encouraging deep relaxation and embodied awareness. The experience is grounding, expansive, and deeply calming—supporting the nervous system as much as the physical body.

Clients often leave feeling lighter, more open, and reconnected to their breath and movement patterns.

This service may support:

General stiffness and restricted movement

Muscle tightness related to posture or daily stress

Nervous system regulation and relaxation

Improved flexibility and joint mobility

A sense of spaciousness and ease in the body

Important Scope & Booking Information

Thai Yoga Massage at La Mar Wellness is not a Registered Massage Therapy (RMT) service.

This treatment is not performed by an RMT

It is not eligible for insurance coverage

It does not involve clinical assessment, diagnosis, or treatment of injury

It is offered as a complementary wellness and movement-based service

Clients seeking clinical massage therapy, injury-focused care, or insurance-eligible treatments are encouraged to book with one of our Registered Massage Therapists.

If your body feels tight, overworked, or disconnected, Thai Yoga Massage offers a deeply restorative way to release tension, restore mobility, and calm the nervous system.

My approach to bodywork blends intentional touch, assisted stretching, and mindful movement to support both physical ease and nervous system regulation. Sessions are designed to help you feel lighter, more open, and more at home in your body—without force, strain, or overwhelm.

Thai Yoga Massage is a rhythmic, floor-based practice that gently guides the body through supported stretches and compressions. Clients often notice improved flexibility, relief from muscular tension, and a profound sense of grounding after a session. It’s especially supportive for those who feel stiff from desk work, repetitive movement, stress, or feeling “stuck” in their bodies.

I trained extensively in Thailand, beginning at Bahn Thai School and continuing through years of hands-on learning at Bahn Thai Spa. I later completed both the Therapeutic and Teacher Training programs at Old Medicine Hospital in Chiang Mai, one of the most respected lineages of Thai massage education.

In addition to Thai massage, I am a certified yoga and Pilates instructor with advanced training in functional movement, therapeutic Pilates, and trigger point work. This allows me to adapt each session to your body’s unique needs, offering a thoughtful and informed approach to movement, flexibility, and overall body awareness.

Clients choose to book with me when they want more than relaxation—they want to feel a meaningful shift in how their body moves, rests, and responds to stress.

If you’re looking for a treatment that supports mobility, nervous system reset, and deep physical ease, Thai Yoga Massage may be the right fit for you.

I help people reconnect with their body’s innate wisdom, release the patterns that keep them stuck, and return to balance — physically, emotionally, and energetically.

My approach blends coaching, somatic work, parts work, inner child work, intuitive energy healing, brain retraining, ancestral healing, and mindfulness to support deep nervous system regulation and lasting transformation. Grounded in the divine feminine, I also help clients heal feminine wounds, awaken their innate creative power, and embody it as a path to wholeness and authentic expression.
