Foot Massage in modern times

This huge supply of well-qualified Thai Foot Massage therapists has brought Thai Foot Massage out
of the temples and hospitals and onto the promenades and street bazaars. Shops now offer treatments
that would only be on offer in the best of western spas and the quality of these treatments has led to the
demand for Thai therapists at some of the best spas around the world.
In the West complementary and alternative therapies generally take a more holistic approach than
the clinical approach of conventional Western medicine, and already provide Primary Health Care
with or without the official backing of their government. Many individual therapists and therapies
have strived hard for recognition and acceptance from conventional Western medicine, and are
having some success. Some techniques in isolation have been adopted in the West. Acupressure now
appears as Neuromuscular techniques or trigger point work in massage, and Acupuncture has
appeared as dry needling and been adopted by many Osteopaths and Physiotherapists. In these cases
the whole concept of meridians and Traditional Chinese Medicine has not been adopted, but certain
techniques have been borrowed. This convergence of ideas can only be a good thing for both
conventional Western medicine and Complementary therapies.
The workplace has been fairly quick in adopting a proactive approach to the health of their
workforce. Seated Acupressure Massage, for example, based on the Traditional Chinese Meridians
has become very popular in the workplace of the Western world where we tend to hunch ourselves
over computers and pay little attention to correct posture. Thai Foot Massage could also have a huge
impact here. Workers who are not hunched over a computer tend to be on their feet all day, and Thai
Foot Massage especially would be of great benefit in these circumstances.
Spas have also begun to look at their treatment menus. Spas and retreats used to be the realm of the
rich and famous, but now the general population demand the same pleasures, but have a greater focus
on value for money. Yes, the treatment must feel great, but it must also be good for their health. The
latest addition to the spa world is the emerging market of the day spa and is reminiscent of the way
Thai Massage is offered in Thailand. The day spa is beginning to head out from exclusive hotels and
retreats to the High Street and shopping centres. The clientele do not expect miracle cures and are
happy with anecdotal evidence rather than clinical studies that such treatments are good for you.
People can spend a few hours in a tranquil setting and receive authentic and holistic treatments from
around the world. As the popularity of Holistic therapies has grown, the general knowledge
regarding the benefits of these treatments has also increased. The public not only want a treatment that
will have a good effect, but it must also feel great. Thai Foot Massage is the original treatment to fit
this bill, it feels undeniably good and it’s good for you.
Perhaps in the not too distant future a Western Doctor will refer you for a course of
complementary therapy. In the meantime however the market has begun to provide places where
treatments are available to meet all your heart’s desires, as well as all of your other organs
