Traditional Thai Massage

The basic principle of traditional Thai massage involves the concept of 10 invisible energy Lines flowing through the body, known as ‘Sip Saen’. It is believed that by massaging these points diseases can be cured and pain eradicated. Traditional Thai massage includes deep stretches similar to yoga, rhythmic, gentle rocking movements, and pressure at specific points of the body. It’s very popular with travellers and the most popular spa treatment is traditional Thai massage, be it foot massage or body massage.

If you have time and have never tried a traditional Thai massage in a traditional enviroment, Wat Pho Thai Massage School is a good place to start. Threre are numerous traditional Thai massage centres and if you are somewhere on Surawong, Silom or Sukhumvit, you are bound to find places that provide traditional massage.

Beauty Day Spa

As many say, your visit to Thailand is not complete without the pampering of a beauty day spa. Like the traditional Thai massage, Thai spas provide traditional ways of preserving well-being, curing ailments, and promoting the balance of a healthy body and soul. It is different from traditional Thai massage in that it utilizes plants and herbs with the use of water. Facials, body wraps, aromatherapy body massage, Thai massage, herbal body scrubs, sauna and mud baths are only some of the services provided by local spas. The use of natural herbs to help treat the body and to fully relax the client is also polular in spa treatments. Enjoy a proffesional spa therapy or a day of unequalled pampering and allow your body and mind to relax with a soothing massage or aromatherapy in an atmosphere of complete comfort, accompanied by soothing music.
