Thai Massage

Have you ever experienced a Thai massage? A beautiful and unique combination of energy work, massage, and yoga, thai massage is usually practiced on the floor on a mat, with the recipient fully clothed.

A spiritual practice, Thai massage was originally practiced and continues to be practised by monks in the Buddhist monasteries of Thailand, although it originated in India from the time of Buddha.

UNESCO put traditional Thai massage, known as Nuad Thai in Thailand, on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. It is regarded as part of the art, science and culture of traditional Thai healthcare. This recognition has cemented the tradition of Nuad Thai massage as a human practice that should be remembered, revered, and preserved for generations to come.

Thai massage affects the physical, emotional, and mental bodies, working at the subtle energy level, leaving the person receiving the massage in a deep state of relaxation.

You are invited to visit us at the upcoming Fall Wellness Fair on Saturday, September 23rd, where you can book a twenty minute session with Jennie to experience this amazing massage that is based on metta, or loving kindness. For more information on thai massage you might like to visit MUTTITAMOVES.CA

Sah’Rah creates one-of-a-kind jewelry using parrot feathers, gem beads, and copper-wrapped crystals. Feathers come from rescue birds and donations from sales are made for their continued care. Sah’Rah also blends essential oils into diluted perfumes, diffuser sprays, and undiluted blends. Single oils are offered, and special orders can be made for oils not in stock.

We also carry Tarot & Oracle decks, select books, incense, Visionary Art prints, and the ever popular Zaphir Chimes.

Sah’Rah & André are musicians & Sound Healers. While we are building a Temple to house all of our work we are not offering our private or group sessions on Gabriola regularly, though you may find us sharing our musical offerings at events. We are currently offering monthly Sound & Frequency Healing events in Victoria at Quanta Healing & Vitality’s 24-unit EE System. There are carpools from Gabriola.
