Yok Thong is a traditional Thai uterus massage that works directly on the uterus and ovaries. Both internal and external massage work may be the case.
The therapeutic treatment is used to resolve problems with menopause, urinary tract infections, cystitis (bladder inflammation), dysmenorrhea, endometriosis, and uterine prolapse (when the uterus descends toward or into the vagina when the pelvic floor muscles are weak), among other women’s health issues or discomforts.

As “yok thong” can be translated literally to “lifting the stomach” it is basically a treatment that lifts and re-positions the lower abdominal organs using upward strokes and acupressure, which also has a positive effect on the prevention of gynecological discomforts or illnesses.
It can be applied for women with gynecological health issues, but also during pregnancy (typically in the last months), or as a postpartum treatment to realign the uterus and ovaries.
Additionally, Yok Thon can have positive effects on lower back pains and can help stimulating blood circulation and metabolism, in general improving women’s self-esteem, libido and sexual vitality.
Although it’s not the goal of a Yok Thong session to induce or to provoke an orgasm or ejaculation, it may happen during the treatment.
