Thai Mobility & Stretching
Move freely again, without limits
Does your body feel stiff when you get up in the morning? Is it hard to bend down, turn your neck or move your hips freely? Do you play sport, or spend long hours sitting, and notice that your body has lost its flexibility?
This treatment was designed for people who want to recover their mobility, improve their flexibility and reduce muscle stiffness through the traditional techniques of Thai massage.
The session takes place on an authentic Thai mattress, without oil. Before we begin we provide comfortable clothing prepared specially for this treatment, so you can move with complete freedom throughout the session.

Feel muscle stiffness or a lack of flexibility.
Play sport and want better mobility and fewer overloads.
Spend many hours sitting or working at a computer.
Practise yoga, pilates, running, cycling or functional training.
Want to move more easily and improve their physical wellbeing.
Why your body will
thank you
A body that moves well feels well. The effects of each session build up, and you notice them day to day.
Recovers joint mobility
Mobilisation and progressive stretching restore the range of movement in neck, shoulders, spine, hips and legs, giving back the freedom to move without limits.
Increases flexibility
Stretches inspired by Thai yoga lengthen the muscles and connective tissue gradually, building flexibility safely and lastingly.
Reduces muscle stiffness
Pressure on the energy lines (Sen) and on specific points releases the tension held in the muscles, clearing away stiffness and heaviness.
Improves everyday physical wellbeing
Moving more freely changes every daily activity. After each session most people describe a lightness and agility that lasts for days.

Who is Thai Mobility & Stretching Girona recommended for?
This treatment is recommended for anyone who feels muscle stiffness, a lack of flexibility or limitation in their everyday movement. It is also an excellent option for athletes who want to improve their mobility, widen their range of movement and keep a more flexible body between training sessions.
Is oil used during the treatment?
No. This treatment follows the Thai massage tradition on an authentic Thai mattress and uses no oil. For your comfort we provide clean, comfortable massage clothing that lets you move freely throughout the session.
Is the massage painful?
No. The stretching and mobilisation always adapt to each person's mobility, flexibility and comfort. The aim is not to force the body but to help it recover its mobility gradually, safely and respectfully.
I am an athlete. When is the best time for this treatment?
If you train regularly, this treatment usually works best on rest days or during active recovery, when the muscles have already recovered and the goal is to improve mobility and flexibility. After very intense training or a competition we would normally suggest one of our Recovery Massage treatments, designed specifically to support muscle recovery.
What is the difference between this treatment and a Recovery Massage?
Thai Mobility & Stretching Girona is aimed mainly at improving mobility, flexibility and range of movement through Thai technique and stretching. The Recovery Massage treatments are designed to reduce muscle fatigue and support recovery after intense exercise. The two complement each other, and the choice depends on where you are in your training and what you are aiming for.
How do I know if this treatment is right for me?
If your body feels stiff, you notice you have lost flexibility, certain movements have become difficult, or you simply want to move more freely, this treatment can be an excellent option. If you have just finished very intense training and your main goal is muscle recovery, one of our Recovery Massage treatments is probably the better fit. If you are unsure, we will gladly advise you.
