Our Services

Thai Yoga Bodywork is a unique style of bodywork that restores fluidity of movement and peaceful state of being. It's a series of slow rhythmic compressions to muscles and energy pathways, gentle rocking movements, percussive massage, and gentle passive stretches. By opening up the body's energy pathways or meridians, our life-force energy can flow more freely. Regular Thai Yoga sessions can bring numerous benefits to our overall health, including improved flexibility, resilience to stress and injury, a brighter mood, and a peaceful disposition.

Our certified Thai Yoga therapist, Chris Butson, has extensive training in northern-style Thai Yoga Bodywork. With a deep understanding of the human body and its energy pathways, Chris uses slow compression and extension, rocking, percussion, and gentle stretching to initiate fluid movement for the body. His sessions are customized to meet the unique needs of each client and take place on a cushioned floor mat. Wear comfortable clothing and avoid eating a heavy meal within one to two hours of your session.

Chris' Background

Chris came to the healing arts after 13 years of working in the corporate world. He longed for a self-directed path of service that was authentic to his heart and soul. In 2007, he headed to California to certify in northern-style Thai Yoga Bodywork. Chris has trained with renowned teachers and has helped numerous clients find relief from stress, pain, and stiffness.

Origins of Thai Yoga

Thai Yoga Bodywork has its roots in Thailand, where it is called "Nuad Bo-Rarn", or "ancient healing way". It was carried from India to Thailand by traveling Buddhist monks who had knowledge of yoga, Ayurveda, and Chinese medicine. These influences blended together to create a unique and powerful system of bodywork that is used to restore health and balance to the body and mind.
