  2. You will always smell Thai massage oil when you enter a Muay Thai gym or a changing room at a Muay Thai stadium. Due to its many benefits, Thai massage plays an essential part in Muay Thai culture, and its distinctive scent defines the sport. Ayurvedic principles, acupressure pressure, and assisted yoga poses are used in Thai massage therapy dating back thousands of years. Muay Thai has incorporated massage into its training method over the years and all Muay Thai fighters receive massage regularly. Massages in Muay Thai are enhanced with liniment oil used in traditional Thai boxing. Namman Muay, or Namman Muay oil, was created in 1960 and has become one of the most important items for Muay Thai practitioners and athletes.

  3. Benefits of Massage for Muay Thai In modern Muay Thai, fighters are given massages after training and right before a fight. Here are the benefits of massage for Muay Thai:

  4. Pre-Fight A Thai oil massage before a fight helps prepare fighters physically and psychologically along with assisted stretching. Getting warmed up helps prepare the body to handle the intense action of competition. As a result, the heart rate and blood circulation are increased, joints are loose, and muscles are receiving more blood flow. During a fight, these factors can help improve athletic performance.

  5. Post-Fight/Training The body produces cytokines, which cause muscular and joint pain to worsen. A massage reduces the production of cytokines and relieves these pains. As cytokines promote inflammation, they contribute to the sensation of pain. Injuries can occur when training with acute muscular pain. Using Thai boxing oil in conjunction with regular massages can help improve recovery, minimize injuries and improve training or competitive performance.

  6. Recovery Clinical trials have shown that massage can also improve sleep quality. Massaging increases serotonin levels, which lead to the release of melatonin, a hormone that dictates the sleep-wake cycle. The muscles recover when the body is resting, so having a good night's sleep is essential.
