Written by the UK's leading teacher and practitioner Natasha de
Grunwald, a pioneer of Thai massage and bodywork for 30 years. Thai
Massage Dissected is a book aimed at massage therapists, yoga
teachers, physiotherapists, osteopaths and all manual therapists
who want to expand their therapeutic approach and are curious to
learn about the body from a Thai anatomy and dissection
perspective. Therapeutic Thai massage and bodywork is a rich and
diverse modality, so much more than the stretching and deep tissue
work for which it is known. The book provides a richly curated
combination of tools, techniques and protocols that will enhance
all practitioners' skill sets. Natasha discusses the roots of this
modality as Buddhist medicine, the five element system, the use of
therapeutic herbs and Thai anatomy, whilst also writing about
concepts such as proprioception and interoception. There is an
additional chapter looking at traditional healthcare practices for
women, informed by her time spent with village midwives on the
Thai/Burmese border. Natasha de Grunwald uses imagery from many
hours spent in a cadaver lab to describe anatomical, textural
layers and structures, bringing human form to life. She
consolidates this with a therapeutic perspective on Thai medical
theory and how Thai massage and bodywork can be carried out in a
clinical setting. This comes from her extensive research, studies
and knowledge spanning over three decades.
