​

​

● Why to learn this technique?

​

The course gives a unique combination of Thai massage techniques, Taoist techniques, western oil massage techniques as well as different therapeutic methods. The course also gives an understanding of the anatomical structure of the body, it’s different organs and different systems and how our massage techniques may affect each one of them. Also, the course gives a basic understanding on the way life energy flows in the belly and pelvis, how it is getting blocked and how it may be helped to be released.

​

Belly massage has a special effect on our body. It is not only about the belly itself but also influences our whole body and wellbeing.

 

​

​

● How is it different from different massage techniques?

​

Gyan is a long-time massage therapist, in the past 7 years he is concentrating on abdominal massage. Gyan learned from the best teachers of abdominal massage and also developed his own unique and effective techniques that he will show in the course.

​

While students may learn abdominal massage from different teachers, nowhere in the world such a unique combination, from such an experienced teacher, is available. Applying abdominal massage in the right way can create real magic in the body in a way that no other massage technique is able to do. It also can help to relieve different physical issues such as lower back pains, digestive and reproductive system issues, low energy, just to name a few. It is a deep healing experience and will be an important addition to the services the practitioners provide.
