Reviews... this is an excellent manual for anyone interested in Thai yoga massage. The concepts are clearly explained and the accompanying full-page photographs are a perfect complement. VERDICT An essential title for practitioners. Others, if not inspired to do bodywork, will at least learn a lot about the amazing curative benefits of Thai yoga massage., Each treatment plan offers a customized one-hour Thai yoga massage posture flow in this outstanding choice for any healing or new age collection., Mr. Chow's energizing and inspiring guide provides enough information to set the practitioner confidently into action with his Lotus Palm system, keeping the focus on the energy exchanged, the Loving Kindness of the Art , and simple, clear anatomical information. This book will surely invite readers to further explore the art of Thai Yoga Massage and integrate it into their own personal or client practice and perhaps, travel to Montreal or even Thailand.
