The popular Thai massage therapy is very different from your standard deep-tissue or Swedish massage, but definitely something to experience. If you’re booked for your first Thai massage, here’s what you have to look forward to.
During a Thai massage, you will be given appropriate clothing for your body, then led to a changing room or bathroom in time for your appointment. At our facility, you can wear your own clothes, but it is a much more relaxing experience to wear the garments provided to you. They are loose-fitting, clean, and comfortable. During the traditional Thai massage, you will be pulled, stretched, and rocked at the hands of your Thai massage therapist.
This is all conducted professionally by an experienced and highly qualified member of staff that is rigorously trained to maintain high standards and the quality of their work.
Our Thai massage therapist will use every part of their body in order to do this, including their thumbs, elbows, and knees. Some Thai masseuses might even walk on you. This traditional Thai massage approach is completely different from the massages that Europeans are used to. You are not kneaded, and Thai massages certainly are not gentle on us.
It is important to note that often in Thai massage, traditional Thai massage can feel like unpleasant, even painful experiences. Usually, at our facility, the Thai masseuse will measure the intensity level depending on a person’s size and age to ensure individual satisfaction and personal comfort with the procedure purchased.

What You Should Wear to a Thai Massage?
For a full-body massage, you can keep your underwear on. You’ll find that most massage therapists are very skilled at protecting your modesty and making you feel comfortable. You’ll never have to uncover anything you’d prefer not to, and the therapist can guide you.
What Should I Expect after a Thai massage?
Immediately after the Thai full body massage, expect your therapist to first inform you that the procedure is complete. They will follow this up by asking how you feel and if you enjoyed the experience. This is an opportunity to provide constructive criticism where appropriate to ensure the therapist knows where to improve or to focus more on your next appointment. Even if it is with a different therapist, notes can be made on the system regarding the type of pressure and preferred focus zones.
Thai Massage is based on the selection of multiple main energy lines sufficient for practical treatment for the internal organs and entire body. In accordance with ancient Asian culture, Thai Massage also treats the subtle energetic field within the body. This can leave you extremely relaxed after the procedure. Some experience a state of drowsiness and fall asleep as they are so comfortable.
Thai Massage is administered on a padded mat reminiscent of a giant futon cushion on the floor for you to unwind on. The Thai massage therapist manipulates your body into stretches and incorporates compression, acupressure, and joint mobility throughout the Thai massage which you may feel slight soreness from at a later point but nothing excruciating.
A full Thai massage session can last two hours and includes rhythmic pressing and stretching of the entire body. This may include pulling fingers, toes, ears, cracking knuckles, walking on the recipient’s back, by palm-press, thumb-press, fingers-press, and forearm-press in many positions including HDS. Particularly the first time you receive this treatment, it may be a shock to your body being treated in this manner.
The zones and limbs focused on with aggressive or strong manipulation may be sore until your body gets used to the treatment and adapts. It is at this stage you will start to realize and feel the true physical and mental benefits of a professional Thai massage.
