Massage & Sauna

Bangkok is famous for its hordes of Massage and Sauna parlours. You can get a wide variety of massage, such as traditional thai massage, full body herbal oil massage, soapy bath massage, foot massage, etc. If you have been to Bangkok and not had a massage, then you have indeed missed something. So, get a massage. With rates starting from 200-300 Baht for an hour-long foot or Thai massage, you can afford to get a massage every evening after having spent a long hectic day of sightseeing.

The Thais are indeed very good at massage work. You will be amazed that even a thin looking girl has enough strength in her hands to work out the toughest of knots. When selecting a parlour, use your judgement. Avoid places that look shady. The tiny sois (side street) off Sukhumvit Road between the Phrom Phong and Thong Lo SkyTrain stations offer endless locations, as does Silom Road between Silom 18 and Thanon Naradhiwas Rajanagarindra.

Note of caution: Bangkok’s infamous Patpong district is probably not the place to seek out a legitimate massage, unless you’re looking for a different type of body work.
