What it's about
This Sen therapy workshop with Sukha explores the Sip Sen, the ten energy lines of traditional Thai massage through which vital life force (prana) is believed to flow, and their acupressure points, known as marma points. Its aim is to customise a 60-minute massage by choosing the appropriate Sen lines and marma points.
The workshop covers the locations and functions of the ten Sen lines, palpating and assessing them to identify blockages or imbalances in common health concerns, hands-on work with marma points, assessing client needs through the five Kosha bodies, and designing tailored Thai massage sequences for specific energetic imbalances. Intuition and sensitivity in this work are also cultivated. The Lotus Palm Advanced Manual is used for reference; it contains Ayurvedic principles, but the workshop does not teach Ayurvedic Thai massage, and prior knowledge of Ayurveda is an advantage.
The workshop runs from 25 to 29 January 2027 (5 days, 30 hours) at Sunshine Massage School, 159/2 Kaeo Nawarat Road, Chiang Mai. It costs 12,500 baht. A deposit of 50 % of the course fee secures the place once it has been confirmed.
