The Best Massage Parlors by Area
“Massage, massage!” — if you’ve ever been to Thailand, you’ve definitely heard these calls spoken with a charming Thai accent. Massage is the hallmark of Thailand. In Phuket, there are hundreds of salons: from quite budget-friendly places with just a couple of tables to luxurious spa centers in five-star hotels offering a full range of services.
The most popular type of massage is traditional Thai massage. It is an ancient healing practice that combines acupressure, passive yoga, and energy work. It is performed without oil, through clothing, and is aimed at harmonizing the body’s energy flows. The therapist uses not only their hands, but also elbows, knees, and feet, stretching muscles and joints and applying pressure along the body’s energy lines.
Not all tourists are immediately ready for this kind of technique, so they more often prefer an oil massage — essentially a classic relaxing massage.
Foot massage is no less popular. By the way, during a foot massage in Thailand, they don’t only massage your feet, but also your hands, shoulders, neck, and head — a nice little bonus.
You can find decent salons in all the tourist areas of Phuket. Just drop the prejudices: sometimes they don’t look like something out of a glossy travel brochure and may appear quite modest, but that doesn’t mean you won’t get the best massage of your life there.
We’ve selected the best massage salons for you in the most popular areas: Karon, Patong, Nai Harn, Chalong, Bang Tao, Kathu, and Phuket Town. Relaxation awaits you in 3, 2, 1…
