Thai Massage Guide: What to Expect During Your First Authentic Session

Preparing for Your First Thai Massage Experience

If you have only experienced Western Swedish or oil massages, your first Traditional Thai massage will be a refreshingly unique experience. Here is what to look forward to: #

What to Wear

Traditional Thai massage is performed without oils while you remain fully clothed. Upon arrival at Prestige Spa Banani, you will be provided with clean, soft, loose-fitting cotton clothing (Thai fisherman pants and top) designed for effortless movement and stretching. #

The Traditional Floor Mat

Unlike high massage tables, authentic Thai massage takes place on a wide, cushioned mattress on the floor. This allows the therapist to leverage body weight effectively and support you safely during gentle stretches. #

Communication is Key

Your comfort is our highest priority. Our therapists will check in on your pressure preference—from soft and soothing to firm and deep. Never hesitate to communicate your preferences. #

The Calming Aftercare

After your session, we serve warm organic lemongrass-pandan tea to rehydrate your system and assist in flushing released metabolic toxins. Avoid intense physical workouts for 2-3 hours and enjoy the tranquil sensation.
