âZenthai to me... is the transformation of touch into a language of connection, bridging the physical, emotional, and energetic realms. Beyond a physical art, it is a practice of âbeing in touchâ â with ourselves, each other, and the deeper rhythms of life.â

Flying Therapeutics
In this form of therapy we use gravity, body weight and harmonic pulsing to allow the body to realign and release. The body is lifted up from the ground and moved in various positions that help open the structural and energetic body in powerful ways.Â
Flying therapeutics improves oxygen flow to the brain, circulation, posture, lymphatic drainage, hormonal responses. Clients do not receive the rush of blood to the head that many participants of other types of inversion therapy experience. This is because the client has their knees bent during the massage, and the practitioner's feet are pressed against the major artery in the lower body, the femoral artery. This slows the blood flow returning to the head, resulting in a sense of calm, and a temporary reduction in brain activity.
Prenatal Zenthai x Rebozo
Pregnancy is one of the best times for a Zenthai treatment, benefiting both mother and baby. Here we use peaceful, flowing movements and stretches that will support mother and baby in welcoming growth and transformation. With its holistic approach pregnancy Zenthai aims to balance the nervous system, increase the lung capacity, support blood health and distribution of Ki (energy).
Incorporated into a routine, Zenthai can greatly improve the overall wellness during pregnancy and bring relief to a great array of symptoms related to changes of the musculoskeletal system. The ideal time to start a prenatal zenthai regiment is the second trimester through the end of the third trimester, when energy levels are starting to decrease and discomfort increases.
