Excellent book & DVD

I'm a massage therapist thinking about taking a Thai-Yoga massage class to add to my modalities. I thought I'd buy this book/DVD set and try it out before I invested the considerable time and money into taking a class. After having reviewed the book and and DVD all I can say is ...WOW. The DVD is great for learniong a basic routine and the book supports it well. The info is presented in a clear and concise manner. The price on this set is lower than most other books and/or DVD out there and and is filled with lots of great info. I would highly recommend this to anyone considering learning this great modality to use with friends and family.

Thai Yoga Massage: A Dynamic Therapy for Physical Well-Being and Spiritual Energy

An absolutely wonderful book. A complete step by step guide with full pictures and descriptions of the practitioner and client's positions. History and diagrams are informative. Kam Thai Chow is a Master of great Excellence! I am signed up to study wherever he goes!

Great Book

I ordered this book without knowing too much about Thai Yoga Massage. I also ordered another book on the same subject. This book is far superior as it accentuates the stance of the therapist which is of upmost importance in doing Thai Yoga Massage. The other book failed to say much about that aspect. Kam has a great reputation for having lots of integrity. I'm signing up to take one of his workshops. I highly recommend this book!

An intriguing discourse on a little-covered technique

This therapy for physical well-being and spiritual energy tells how to practice Thai yoga massage, covering the history and techniques of the ancient bodywork therapy and using step-by-step photos to explain postures for a one and two-hour full-body massage. Thai Yoga Massage offers an intriguing discourse on a little-covered technique.
