Our wonderful Level 3 training covers the Northern style sequence that was developed at the Northern Medicine Hospital in Chiang Mai. It is known worldwide as a standard of knowledge for Thai massage practitioner education, and consists of nearly 4 hours of treatment. This style is known for its Thai Yoga qualities and dynamic, flowing stretches.

Level 3 completes our traditional core series, and is mandatory for students who wish to become a Certified Thai Bodywork Practitioner. This is an extremely important training that provides the essential repertoire of asanas that any professional should have at their disposal

Explore in detail the Chinese and Hill tribe influence on traditional Thai massage, by learning the seven basic katas of the Northern (Chiang Mai) School. The northern style, codified at the Northern Medicine Hospital in Chiang Mai, has a strong emphasis on movement and stretches, and is the style commonly seen in books and practiced throughout the world.

In this course, the student gains the tools and experience to be a professional Thai massage therapist through intensive practice of the traditional sequences of the northern regions. 4 hours of treatment options are added to the repertoire, including intensive study of body mechanics in adapting stretches for various body types. This course is essential to the professional practitioner, providing a common lexicon of Thai yoga techniques that is shared throughout the world.

We examine the spiritual and historical origins of the art, and learn the Pali prayer to Shivago as it is traditionally taught.

Over 200 Northern method Asanas are taught, along with energetic theory of the Sen Sip, therapeutic applications, how to structure treatments for specific client complaints, table applications, chair sequences, and much more. Levels 1 and 2 must be completed prior to attending.
