Book Reviews of Encyclopedia of Thai Massage
Book Review: Great Read!
Summary: 5 Stars
It is obvious that this author has a solid knowledge of Thai Massage on both an academic and experiential level. His explanations of technique are easy to understand. The photographs shown are detailed. Contraindications are addressed and common practitioner errors discussed. I especially appreciate his advice to use the text as a supplement to more formal instruction...proof of his passion to maintain the integrity of the art of Thai massage. Thanks Pierce! I'm sure that your teachers are quite proud.
Book Review: wonderful wonderful resource
Summary: 5 Stars
This is wonderful book for any level of Thai practicioner. It has very clear and concise pictures and descriptions, as well as shows you how to do a maneuver correctly and incorrectly. Great resource for learning about thai basics to experienced level. Would reccommend to any who were looking for a Thai book. I loved mine so much that I showed it to my therapist who does Thai on me and now am ordering one for him because he liked mine so well he didn't want to give it back. :)Book Review: I need a new copy!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have read and re-read this book so many times that I need a new copy. It is my favorite reference book for Thai massage! The photos and descriptions are great, with excellent correlations to yoga poses throughout. This book depicts the Northern style of Thai Massage and refers to it as an important branch of traditional medicine, as opposed to just another spa treatment. The author lived in Thailand and spent time teaching at the Old Medicine Hospital in Chiang Mai.Book Review: Review for Encyclopedia of Thai Massage
