ร้านนวด cat massage
Tucked along Khlong Makharm Riang Road in the Hua Ro district of Ayutthaya, this small massage shop offers traditional Thai massage as its signature treatment, with the owner — known as Cat — frequently cited by visitors as a skilled and personable practitioner. The shop has a neighbourhood feel rather than a polished spa atmosphere, which suits travellers looking for a straightforward, unpretentious massage experience after a long day exploring the ancient temples nearby. Thai massage is the recommended choice here, and visitors are encouraged to communicate their preferred pressure level directly with the masseuse. Oil massage is also available, though the traditional dry Thai massage appears to be the house specialty. The shop sometimes operates with limited staff, so a short wait may be necessary if the primary masseuse is occupied — the shop notes that another therapist can be called in when needed. As with many independent massage shops, the experience can vary depending on which therapist is available, so requesting Cat specifically may be worthwhile if she is on duty. The shop is open every day from mid-morning until 11pm, making it a practical option for an evening wind-down. No website is listed, so booking in advance by phone or simply walking in are the most straightforward options.

Visitor Reviews
Recommend Thai Massage, you will get real massage and tell her heavy level. No Oil massage. If service not available you can wait a minute, she will call her friends.
Cat is such a delightful person. We had a great time there, doing foot massage. It was a pleasure, make sure to pass by if you have the chance.
Great place. Got two Thai massages here, and would gladly have done more if time had allowed. Cat is a pro. Recommended!

Learn Wat Pho First
Wat Pho in Bangkok is the birthplace of traditional Thai massage education. Their on-site massage pavilion offers excellent treatments from students and graduates at reasonable prices — and you know the technique is authentic.
Communicate Pressure Preferences
Thai massage can be intense. Say 'bao bao' for lighter pressure or 'nак nак' for harder. A good therapist will check in, but don't hesitate to speak up — suffering in silence defeats the purpose.
Book Longer Sessions
A 60-minute massage is fine, but 90 or 120 minutes allows the therapist to work thoroughly. The price difference is often only 200–400 THB for an extra hour — worth it for a deeper, more relaxing experience.
