Vibration is a rapid shaking movement, and Tapotement consists of tapping muscles with quick hand movements. Oriental Massage is extremely gentle and aimed at restoring balance in the body. Thai Massage is an ancient form of body therapy from Thailand. It uses movements from yoga and the meridians of traditional Chinese medicine. It is practiced on a floor mat.
Massage can be gentle or rigorous, slow or rapid.
It can focus on the deep tissues of muscles, or gently on the surface of the skin. More than one technique may be used in a single session. Massage therapy typically takes place in a warm, comfortable, quietly lit room filled with soothing music. Usually you lie down on a soft, sheet-covered table, much like a doctor's treatment table. You will be partially covered with another sheet or large towel.
