Q&A

About the Treatment

How is Thai traditional massage different from other massages? What kind of massage is it?

It also includes chiropractic elements, so it's not just a massage using fingers and hands, but also stretching and loosening the body. It's also called yoga for two people.

What is the standard length of a Thai traditional massage?

Is there a recommended time? It is said that the standard length of a Thai traditional massage is 120 minutes. With a 60 or 90 minute session, stiffness is relieved by focusing on specific areas, but with a 120 minute session, the whole body is relieved evenly, so it is very popular and recommended.

Does Thai traditional massage hurt?

>Thai traditional massage is performed by kneading deeply and slowly. This is where you will often experience a "painful, pleasant" sensation. It's an indescribably comfortable, exquisite feeling. You will feel this "painful, pleasant" sensation as your whole body is loosened. We will adjust the strength of the massage to your liking, so please feel free to ask your therapist.

Will there be any reaction to the massage?

Thai traditional massage does not just massage the parts of the body that are stiff (tired), but also massages the whole body in a balanced manner. Since the massage starts from the legs, there is little chance of reaction to the massage.
