What books about Thai massage are good for curing ailments?

What book do you recommend for learning Thai massage? I'm not talking about Thai yoga which is for individual practice, nor the half-hour or full-hour massage. I mean Thai massage for relieving various ailments of another person. I was in a bookstore once in Bangkok and saw this book with full-color pictures showing you various positions for treating the subject. I think it was in Central World but it wasn't there when I went back to purchase it. Does anyone know a book like this or maybe what I'm talking about? I looked around in Amazon and didn't recognize any of the book covers there.

Sorry I only know Thai Yoga. And I also know Ayurvedic and that's not what you're looking for either. I know that this type of massage is sacred to the Thai people so I don't think that it will be easy to find. Good luck with your search!

I took a look in my Thai book and here's some keywords that might help you along: Nuad Bo'Rarn or Purana other names for Thai massage. Jivaka Kumar Bhaccha (Shivago Komparaj) The father of Thai massage.
