Instructor: Heather O'Neill, LMT, EST

Dates & Location: Coming Soon! 

Explore the art of Thai-inspired bodywork in a floor-based format designed to support movement, flexibility, relaxation, and connection through assisted stretching, rhythmic compression, and flowing transitions. This hands-on continuing education class is created for massage therapists, bodyworkers, and wellness professionals who want to expand their skills with mat-based techniques that bring a dynamic, whole-body approach to therapeutic care.

Mat Thai Massage allows practitioners to work with the body in a grounded, fluid way using leverage, body mechanics, and supported movement rather than force. This class focuses on creating a calm, effective, and professional session experience while helping therapists learn how to move with greater ease, confidence, and intention.

Students will learn how to apply Thai-inspired techniques in a way that feels approachable, supportive, and adaptable for different bodies and comfort levels. Emphasis is placed on therapist ergonomics, client communication, positioning, safety, and the natural rhythm that makes mat-based Thai work so unique and beneficial.
