Karsai massage training (Pelvis floor therapy Thai style)
What is Karsai massage and benefits?
Karsai massage is a type of traditional Thai massage which acts to stimulate circulation and balance energy within the body, focusing on the reproductive system.
Kasai therapeutic massage helps stimulate the blood circulation system and send energy to various organs of the body, helping to expel waste that accumulates within the reproductive system, relieve lower back pain, strengthen the reproductive system, help improve sexual functions, and helps to relieve congested blood and urination.
This specific zone of the body is often left alone for moral reasons but it is also the siege and the crossroad of many aspect of the balance of one's body. It is an important aspect of a holistic approach to therapy.
Traditional Thai massage, Energy lines, Therapeutic points and Abdominal massage are types of Karsai massage as to have "Karsai" could appear in different forms.
Who is the Karsai massage training suitable for?
Karsai massage involves working along the energy lines associated with the reproductive organs in both men and women. Due to the delicate nature of this practice, it requires a massage therapist with substantial experience, sensitivity, and specialized training. Therefore, individuals interested in learning the science of Kasai massage should possess the following attributes:
- Foundational Knowledge: A background in Thai massage or Thai oil massage, particularly with an understanding of the ten principal energy lines. (If you're not entirely familiar, Waree will provide a refresher on this important knowledge.)
- Experience in Abdominal Massage: Basic knowledge of abdominal massage is essential. (If you're not already skilled in this area, Waree will teach the necessary abdominal massage techniques as part of the Karsai massage curriculum. You just need to inform her in advance)
- Professional Attitude: A respectful, non-sexual approach to massaging the reproductive organs is crucial.
- Understanding of Thai Etiquette: Familiarity with Thai manners and the ethical standards of a professional massage therapist is essential. A true therapist does not exploit their knowledge for sexual purposes, as doing so would not only damage their own reputation but also that of their teachers. Consequently, an instructor may decline to accept a student if they detect inappropriate intentions or energies.

How does Karsai massage work, and how is it taught?
The Karsai massage method begins with a Traditional Thai or Thai oil massage along the energy lines that are blocked, incorporating acupressure on meridian points as well as key points along the ten main energy lines circulating within the body. This process stimulates the circulatory system,water element, fire element, and wind element, enhancing the flow of elemental energies and helping to restore balance.
Following this, an abdominal massage is performed to soften and release tension within the abdomen, focusing on stimulating key points that connect to the lower abdomen and pelvic floor, thereby enhancing the circulation within the internal organs.
The next step involves massaging the reproductive organs of both men and women, concentrating only on areas that are problematic or blocked. This targeted approach stimulates the body’s natural healing processes, helping to treat degeneration, balance the four elements, and increase the overall energy flow, which may be hindered by blockages in the reproductive system. Improved circulation as a result of this massage can enhance kidney function, alleviate lumbar and back pain, and relieve stiffness and congestion in the internal organs of the lower abdomen. Additionally, Karsai massage can have a positive impact on emotional well-being.
It’s important to note that each person's massage regimen will vary according to their specific symptoms. The fundamental principle before beginning any massage is to identify the root cause of the ailment through a comprehensive history, including personal and medical history, basic physical examination, and localized assessment. These essential steps enable accurate diagnosis and the development of a tailored massage plan, along with recommendations for other complementary treatment methods.

What causes the body to develop Kasai disease?
Our bodies gradually deteriorate with age resulting in the Triadhatu, pitta, vata, and phlegm that circulate in the body becoming out of balance. According to the principles of Thai traditional medicine this deterioration is called "Kasai" and causes disease and imbalance in various organs, especially the internal abdominal organs, making the body weak, deteriorated, and unable to function normally. According to the traditional Medicine scriptures there are more than 26 types in total, divided according to the deterioration of the body and causes of disease.
When Kasai or deterioration of the body happens to the genitals, this results in malfunctioning of the urinary and reproductive systems. Abnormalities can occur due to many factors such as degeneration of the organ itself, stress, insufficient or excess fire element in the body. This results in illness in the systems in the body and inevitably results in congestion, pellets, lumps, and stiffness of the reproductive organs and surrounding related areas, and causes physical, mental, and emotional effects.
In yogic science it is said that the genital point is the origin of the root chakra which holds and strengthens the other 6 chakras. This chakra acts as the center of spiritual, emotional, and physical balance and awareness of your basic needs. Healing the first chakra is about feelings of security, safety, desire, determination, and life. Its energy stabilizes your inner self, allowing one to feel mindful and comfortable.
The first chakra, or root chakra, is as important to the body as foundations are to a building. If the foundation is strong the building will be strong as well. In the same way if our root chakra is balanced and energetic it strengthens and aligns all the chakras of the body. Any abnormality in this chakra is powerful enough to affect the health of the other 6 chakras in the body, therefore it directly affects overall well-being and emotional stability. Feeling constantly lost and anxious for no reason, or feel worried about the basic necessities of life even though things may be fine, is an indication that your 1st chakra is out of balance. Unbalanced or blocked chakras make us more likely to receive negative energy and undermines our full human potential.
In Thai traditional medicine there are many ways to balance the body (such as Kasai massage, herbal medicine, and charcoal sitting), to increase the strength/energy of the wind (adhogamavata, wind blowing down the lower parts of the body) and the fire element of the body. The method that is currently popular besides using herbal medicine is "Kasai massage".
