Poultice Massage
Poultice massage, is a deeply relaxing and restorative treatment rooted in traditional Thai medicine and Ayurvedic principles. This technique utilizes heated herbal compresses, known as poultices, filled with a blend of therapeutic herbs and spices. These warm poultices are then applied directly to the body in a rhythmic, kneading, and pressing motion, often combined with traditional massage techniques, stretching, and acupressure.
