Programme:
arriving on the evening of October 1st, we will partake in two lovely workshops. On October the 2nd, we will have a day devoted to Luk Pra Kob,
the northern thai art of assembling and massageing with herbal balls. On the three days between the 3rd and the 5th, we will continue with a hands free workshop.
1) Herbal Compress Workshop description: the workshop will introduce a winter favourite of cold climates: Luk Pra Kob, otherwise known as steamed herbal
compress massage. Starting with creating our own compresses, we follow up by learning how to heat them safely, and then working each other’s energy lines
with different techniques, giving a full 1-1,5 hour treatment. What to bring: favourite herbs, home grown herbs, small towels, and a white sheet.
2) Hands Free Workshop description:The workshop will be a 3 day course covering the full body massage without the use of hands. The workshop introduces the
techniques with feet, heels, elbows, knees, and gives ample practice to feel ready to use them. Recommended as a “thumb saver” for small masseurs, or those
with sensitive/injured wrists, thumbs or shoulders, for giving treatments to heavier and more muscular patients. All who practice thai yoga massage are welcome.
How to get there: train or bus to Krakow, and directions on venue’s website in polish, or please email Mateus for details, pickup possibilities.
