Not ideal for

Anyone wanting a full-length session or detailed spoken instructions, since this is a short demonstration with brief on-screen guidance.

Is Thai massage done with clothes on?

Yes. Traditional Thai massage is given on a floor mat with both people in loose, comfortable clothing, and no oil is used.

This video is for relaxation and education, not medical advice. Stop if anything feels painful, and check with a professional if you have an injury or health condition.

Before you press play

Wear loose clothes and use a thick mat or folded blankets on the floor. Twists should feel easy, so move slowly and stop well before any strain. For a complete routine, watch our full Thai massage routine class demo or start with the introduction to Thai massage.
