- Gut Health Holistic Therapeutic Massage
- Chi Nei Tsang
- Ear-Ab Reflex
The ‘Gut Health Holistic Therapeutic massage’ healing practice combines elements of Chi Nei Tsang with other methods such as the Japanese Abdominal Hara Massage, Thai Krasai Massage and hot stones. The combination of methodologies works on transformations in the internal organs. Multiple disciplines alleviate sedimentation in the veins, and are beneficial for balancing and healing the digestive and gastrointestinal system. This therapy works to resolve bladder problems, liver problems, detoxification, insomnia, fatigue, and to improve blood circulation, flexibility and the range of motion and longevity in the patient, as well as easing muscle tension and pain.
A speciality at Chiva-Som, Thailand’s unique abdominal massage works directly over the navel and surrounding abdominal areas where stress, tension and negative emotions accumulate. If this area is congested, the circulating energy of the body is blocked, slowly weakening internal organs and decreasing energy and vitality. Chi Nei Tsang helps to quickly release negative emotions and tension, bringing comfort to the abdomen and vital energy to the organs. This technique is particularly effective for those who have digestive problems. A course of three treatments is recommended for optimal benefits.
Ear-abdominal reflexology is an effective alternative to Chi Nei Tsang or abdominal massage, ideal for those who prefer a lighter touch. Ear Ab Reflex stimulates points in the ears that reflect the associated organs in the body, based on the same meridian principles as TCM. By facilitating energy flow within the major systems of the body from the ear reflex points, the body can be restored to its optimal function.

- H2O Body Complex (50 mins)
Water exercise can simulate many techniques we perform in a gym, while the absence of gravity allows you to make full use of your body without any type of joint injuries. As water resistance is approximately 12 times greater than in the air, the result is highly efficient toning, strengthening and calorie-burning. This nonimpact cardiovascular workout directly improves all five aspects of physical fitness: strength, endurance, flexibility, cardio-respiratory endurance and body composition.

- Pilates (50 mins)
Pilates is a unique form of exercise that caters to the specific needs of each individual. Slow, precise movements allow you to become aware of any weakness and postural misalignment caused by injury or muscle imbalance. Your individual programme will tone up muscles and increase flexibility as well as your ‘core stability’ (functional abdominal and lower back strength, which is essential for managing back pain and other injuries). Our professionally equipped Pilates Studio will allow you to work out using many forms of Pilates, regardless of your fitness level.

- Pranayama
Prana means breath, respiration, life, vitality, wind, energy or strength. Ayama means length, expansion, stretching or restraint. Pranayama is therefore the science of breath, or the extension of breath and its control. Even as emotional excitement affects the rate of breathing, deliberate regulation of respiration keeps emotional excitement in check. Regular practice of pranayama will slow your heart and bring a subjective experience of relaxation. Proper breathing techniques can create space for personal healing and transformational growth.

- Acupressure Reflexology
- Chi Nei Tsang
- Ear-Ab Reflex
A traditional Chinese healing method, reflexology works on the connection between specific reflex points in the feet and all other body parts. After determining these tender and tense spots, the therapist then applies pressure on the feet to alleviate the local discomfort and treat the body parts reflected. Reflexology stimulates these points in order to improve and strengthen the weak areas of the body, remove congestion and eliminate discomfort. As tensions are eased and circulation is improved, this gentle therapy encourages the body to heal itself at its own pace, often counteracting a lifetime of misuse.
