I first time came across Thai massage in 2003, when I worked and travelled in Thailand. The effect that Thai massage had on me was so profound that I decided to learn this amazing art and share its benefits with others.
Over the years I trained at several Thai massage schools in Ching Mai in Thailand. I have also studied in the UK to Advanced Practitioner level.
I was one of the founders of Sumana Thai Massage clinic in Brighton and taught Thai massage workshops. My passion for Thai massage will never die.
There is no doubt for me that Thai massage is one of the things I am on this Earth for!

Thai Yoga Massage is given with the client fully clothed and lying on a futon mattress on the floor. Throughout this holistic massage treatment the therapist will apply rhythmic gentle thumb and palm pressure along the body energy lines releasing blocked energy thus improving health and vitality.The therapist will also carefully move you into positions similar to yoga postures for a variety of relaxing stretches. Thai Yoga massage is sometimes called – ‘moving meditation’. The therapist works in a meditative state of Metta or Loving Kindness during the massage.
Thai massage with herbal compresses:
Herbal compresses contain a variety of Thai herbs, including ginger, eucalyptus leaves, camphor, turmeric root and many others. They work really well on the neck area, hips and back muscles. They help to soothe tight muscles and relax your body and mind
They also cleanse our energy body- a subtle network of very fine vessels, carrying prana or qi throughout the body. Stagnation of energy and blockages in the subtle channels, is what causing diseases. Clearing these channels and nourishing the organs will restore health.
Cost of compresses is added to the price of your chosen treatment: £5- for compresses applied to a particular area or
£10 – for the full body herbal massage
“I would highly recommend the Thai Yoga massage that Irina gives – her sessions are absolutely brilliant. She starts by considering your whole health picture and finding out if there are any current ailments she needs to be aware of. The actual bodywork itself is fantastic: Irina always manages to locate and work on areas of particular pain and soreness, relieving tension and restoring vitality. Afterwards you feel connected, grounded and relaxed – effectively, how you would like to feel all the time. I would have no hestitation in recommending Irina to anyone, and consider her a massage artist rather than just a practitioner. ” Mick Jefford
“It’s amazing- you always know where my sore spots are. I feel so much better afterwards. My tensions are just melting away. Thank you very much.” Louisa Fitzgerald
“Thai massage is simply the best form of massage I have ever received. I love the variety of moves that mobilise the joints and ‘open you up’ as well as a meditative aspect of the treatment. I get in touch with my deeper self.” Kevin
“I have really missed my weekly massage treatments with Irina. I have noticed the difference in my body and mind. My feet have especially suffered as well as my levels of flexibility. Even though I did yoga through the lock-down, it was not enough to keep up my level of health and well-being. I’m glad I can return to regular treatments now.” Geoff
