The ancient practice of relaxing massage has been passed on from generation to generation in the farming families of Lanna. In the 1830s King Rama III set up a massage and herbal medicine school at Wat Pho in Bangkok. Today it is still the premiere school for training and most of the best northern masseuses have graduated from there.
The various types of traditional Thai massage may be categorized as follows:
1) For general relaxation, the relief of fatigue and nervous tension, to stimulate the blood and improve physical fitness.
2) To cure simple ailments such as muscle pain, stiffness, cramps, lower back pain and to help the elderly or paralysed who are unable to exercise.
3) Foot massage which has been adapted from Chinese foot reflexology and which helps to stimulate and improues activities of the internal organs.
4) Even though the science of oil massage originated in the west, the people of Lanna have used fragrance and herbs to enhance the health giving benefits of massage since ancient times.
5) Some masseuses are specially trained to massage young babies, giving a warm and loving touch.
Above all, you can be trained in Lanna Traditional Massage at eight schools in Chiang Mai. Member of Chiang Mai Health Servces Promotion Association  | Shivagakomarpaj Thai Massage School 238/8 wuolai Rd., (Acroos Old Chiangmai Cultural Center)
