THAI MASSAGE FOUNDATION
200-hour online training
This 200 hour online program is a complete overview, a deep dive into all the fundamentals that you need to safely get started in your journey, build up your own practice and tap into your personal style.
Our main focus throughout the course is the universal principles that make Thai Massage such a unique bodywork practice.
There is a person laying down in a large futon and we work on this person for two full hours. We offer our loving touch from the tip of the toes to the crown of the head. Our tools, our elbows, and knees, feet, sometimes even the sitting bones. And of course, we use our hands, transforming the way we touch the way we feel and sense the way we hold space.
And with time and practice, developing warmth, sensitivity and intelligence in our hands, gently and gradually opening up their heart and in the process opening up also our own heart.
This course is created and designed for practitioners of all levels, and if you‘re completely new to Thai Massage, we’ve got you covered.
You will learn:
- Hundreds of exercises in every single part of the body, with theoretical and practical sessions, recaps and guided sequences.
- Therapeutic applications for common conditions such as headache, knee pain, lower back pain, shoulder pain and also the main guidelines and adaptations that we need to offer a safe touch to a pregnant woman.
- A reasonable amount of crystal clear anatomy and physiology, zooming in so that we can visualize in 3D and rediscover everything that lies under the skin.
- The salt and pepper, the spices of this delicious mix, the magic that comes from the Osteopathic lineage.
- Physical practices of self-love like Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin Yoga, Pranayama and also Qi Gong. And every step of the way, the nectar of Bhakti Yoga, many songs, melodies and prayers, mantras that are often the highlight of our residential courses.
- Introduction to Buddhist practice & philosophy, crucial for the true understanding of Thai Yoga Massage

PAU CASTELLSAGUÉ
A family trip to India, back in 2005, started it all. I dropped my career as a radio sports journalist and together with my brother Wari and my sister Mireia launched the Omshanti Yoga Studio (2006) and, later on, the Barcelona Yoga Conference (2011).
The path has been filled with Yoga, AcroYoga and soon enough Thai Massage showed up and stole my heart. For the last decade I have traveled around the globe sharing this art, inspired by teachers of the Sunshine Network. Laurino Bertelli, and his dedication to Vipassana meditation, the visionary OsteoThai founders David Lutt & Arno L’Hermitte, and the Sangha spirit, generosity and joy from Takis and Kerys at the Sunshine House Greece.
After graduating from a 5-year Osteopathy program at SICO (Switzerland), under the mentorship of Phillipe Druelle, the mission is crystal clear; to create a global platform, the Thai Massage Academy, and dive deep into this magical fusion between Thai Yoga Massage and Osteopathy.
