Book Reviews of Thai Massage: Sacred Body Work (Avery Health Guides)

Book Review: Inspiring and innovative
Summary: 4 Stars

This book is invaluable and so inspiring in terms of the variety of postures and combination of styles (all of them Northern) it presents. The postures are very well explained and have been collected from various sources and schools in Northern Thailand. This is a book to constantly refer to for inspiration and innovation. But although the traditional sequences of Thai Yoga Massage are well illustrated and explained in great detail, there is hardly any mention of therapeutic properties of the postures. As Traditional Thai Yoga Massage uses numerous points and postures for therapy, a chapter on how to use this most amazing bodywork for therapeutic reasons is really being missed in this otherwise greatly informative and thoroughly compiled book.
