Benjamas Massage & Salon by Aom in Phuket’s Kata area is a place for truly skilled, technique-driven massage. Therapists follow a clear, structured approach: they locate tight spots, focus on problem areas, and adjust pressure so the treatment is effective while still comfortable. They’re also notably careful with sensitive or previously injured areas — no “forcing” the body — working gradually to release tension instead.
Inside, it’s cool, clean, and pleasantly scented. If you prefer a quieter setting, there are cozy rooms upstairs with dim lighting and a calm atmosphere where it’s easy to fully relax (and even drift off). The front desk team is friendly and well organized, welcoming guests warmly and helping you choose the right treatment.
The menu includes Thai massage, foot and leg massage, targeted sessions for the head/shoulders/back, and couples treatments. Many options begin with a foot wash and scrub, which is especially refreshing after walking, excursions, or a flight. They also offer after-sun aloe massage, a creamy body scrub, pedicures, and hair braiding.
As with most salons, the experience can vary by therapist: sometimes the pressure may feel too strong or too light, so it’s best to discuss your preferred intensity in advance. Card payment is available, and the premises are monitored by CCTV. If paying in cash, keep an eye on your money and personal belongings.
