Thai Traditional Massage (Court type Thai traditional massage)
This book compiles the knowledge and practical experience of Applied Thai Traditional Medicine practitioners, derived from the study of Thai Traditional Therapeutic Massage (Court-type Thai Traditional Massage) under the guidance of Narongsak Boonrattanahiran. The content is systematically organized to provide readers with a clear understanding of the principles and clinical practices of Court-type Thai Traditional Massage.
The book is divided into 3 main sections: Basic Massage, Massage of the signal points, and Diseases in Thai Traditional Therapeutic Massage.
This volume presents Part II: Massage of the signal points, which the content provided a comprehensive understanding of both theoretical concepts and practices. The topics covered include the definition of signal points and major signal points, principles of signal point massage, and the physiological effects of signal point massage on the body.
In addition, the book explains the anatomical locations of signal points across different regions of the body, appropriate positioning for both the recipient and the practitioner, as well as the correct procedures and techniques in accordance with established principles. The benefits and precautions of signal point massage are also mentioned to ensure safe and effective application.
The volume includes illustrations and diagrams demonstrating changes in skin temperature, helping to clearly visualize the effects of massage on blood circulation and physiological responses.
