Chatchai Chinese Medical Clinic (Licensed)

4.6(120 reviews)

Situated in the Wat Ket neighbourhood of Chiang Mai, this licensed Chinese medical clinic offers traditional healing treatments within a professional, regulated clinical setting. The clinic attracts both local residents and international visitors seeking alternative approaches to health, with practitioners addressing a range of conditions including hormonal imbalances, migraines, post-viral fatigue, and burnout. Its location near central Chiang Mai makes it reasonably accessible for travellers staying in or around the old city. Visitors consistently note the clean, tidy environment and the approachable, English-speaking staff who take time to listen and explain treatments. The clinic follows traditional Chinese medicine principles, and several patients have reported meaningful progress with chronic conditions after multiple sessions. Walk-in appointments are accepted, and the diagnostic approach has drawn praise for its attentiveness and accuracy. Good to know: the clinic is open six days a week from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM, closing on Sundays. For ongoing or complex health concerns, multiple visits are likely necessary, so travellers with short itineraries should factor this into their plans. Those considering treatment are advised to check the clinic's website at chatchaiclinic.com for current service details and to bring identification for registration. As with any medical service abroad, arriving with a clear summary of your health history and any medications you are currently taking will help practitioners provide more informed care.

Visitor Reviews

I’ve been struggling with burnout for over four years, and nothing has brought me real progress—until now. Since starting treatment here, I’ve experienced an absolutely remarkable improvement. This is the first time I feel like I’m genuinely healing, not just managing symptoms. The approach is deeply holistic, and the doctor combines profound traditional Chinese medicine knowledge with intuitive precision. I came to Chiang Mai feeling completely drained, and now—just a few weeks in—I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. At this pace, I truly believe I can fully recover within six weeks. If you’re dealing with chronic exhaustion, burnout, or other stress-related issues, I can’t recommend this place highly enough. It’s been a total game-changer for my health and my life.

Extremely tidy, clean and welcoming place. The staff is amazing, so polite and empathetic. You really feel listened, understood. I came here for my hormone imbalances and in just couple of weeks I see great results. I was gaining weight without changing lifestyle/diet, after just 14 days treatment (acupuncture, herbs and lifestyle change requested) I lost my first 2 kg in life. I highly recommend this place to anyone who want to solve their health issues from the root rather than treat only the symptoms. I wish there are more clinics like these in europe. Thank you doctor and thank you staff for the amazing work

I did a walk in , wanted to take advantage of accessible Chinese medicine. The doctor was wildly accurate, and they gave me prompt care. Super professional and clean!

Tips for Visiting Temples & Culture

Dress Modestly

Cover shoulders and knees at all temples. Carry a light scarf or sarong — some temples lend wraps, but not all. Shoes come off before entering any building with a Buddha image.

Mind Your Feet

Never point your feet at a Buddha image or a monk — it's considered deeply disrespectful. When sitting inside a temple, tuck your feet behind you or to the side.

Ask Before Photographing

Exterior photos are almost always fine, but some interior halls prohibit photography. Look for signs, and never pose irreverently with Buddha images — it's a legal offense in Thailand.
