Reviews from Google

I recently visited and had an amazing experience! The atmosphere was peaceful and relaxing, with a soothing scent and soft music that set the perfect mood. The staff was warm and welcoming, making me feel comfortable from the moment I arrived. I chose the aroma oil massage (lemongrass & eucalyptus), and it was absolutely wonderful. The therapist was highly skilled, applying just the right amount of pressure while using aromatic oils that helped me fully unwind. The combination of gentle strokes and deep relaxation techniques melted away all my stress and tension. After the session, I felt completely refreshed and rejuvenated. Overall, I highly recommend for anyone looking for a top-quality Thai massage experience. I will definitely be coming back!

Got a head spa here for 1600 baht/1 hour. The experience was divine. The therapist was very professional and the spa was very clean and had good vibes. I highly recommend this place for getting a head spa.

I had the 75min head spa. I payed extra for long hair following 2 staff disagreeing with each other. The treatment was very relaxing & i thought they did a great job. They seemed to be using good quality products & the place was clean. Although it’s on the pricer side, i would still recommend.

Tips for Visiting Wellness & Spas

Communicate Pressure Preferences

Thai massage can be intense. Say 'bao bao' for lighter pressure or 'nak nak' 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.

Try a Herbal Compress

Add a herbal compress (luk pra kob) to your massage — steamed bundles of lemongrass, turmeric, and camphor pressed into sore muscles. It's deeply therapeutic and uniquely Thai. Usually just 200–300 THB extra.
