FREQUENTLY ASKED
QUESTIONS
-
What should I wear to a Thai Massage session?For comfort and flexibility, it's recommended that you wear loose, comfortable clothing as you’ll be stretched and moved in various positions. Avoid wearing tight clothing or jewellery that may restrict movement. Ideally, in order to maximise the full benefits of Thai massage you will be required to remove your outer garments, during the massage and, respecting your privacy we will ensure to keep you covered with large sheets when you are required to lay down or sit up for your treatment. Staff will leave the room for your privacy as you to prepare for treatment and, for you to dress before you leave the treatment room.
-
Is Thai Massage painful?Thai massage can involve deep pressure and stretching, which may feel intense but should not be painful. Your therapist will adjust the pressure and stretch to a level that is comfortable for you. If something feels too painful, it’s important to communicate that with your therapist.
-
Can Thai Massage help with chronic pain or injuries?Yes, Thai massage can be beneficial for chronic pain, particularly in the back, neck, shoulders, and joints. The combination of stretching and acupressure can help relieve muscle tightness and improve mobility. However, if you have a specific injury or health concern, it's always a good idea to consult your healthcare provider before booking a session.
-
How is Thai Massage any different from other types of massage?Thai massage differs from Western styles of massage, such as Swedish or deep tissue, in that it focuses more on stretching and joint movements. The therapist uses their hands, thumbs, elbows, knees, and feet to apply pressure, and stretches are often deeper and more involved than those in other types of massage. It also incorporates elements of yoga-like postures, which are not typically part of other massage styles.
-

-
What should I do before & after a Thai Massage?Before: Arrive a little early to relax and fill out any necessary forms. Avoid eating a large meal right before the session, as it can cause discomfort during the massage. After: Drink plenty of water to help flush out any toxins released during the massage. Take it easy for the rest of the day, and avoid intense physical activity. You may feel a little sore afterward, similar to the feeling after a good workout, but this should subside within a few hours.
