FAQs

Do you wear clothes during a Thai massage? ›

You will remain fully clothed for a Thai massage, so you should wear clothing that is comfortable and can stretch easily.

It's up to you. Women usually remove their bras to allow the massage therapist to work on the back and shoulder area without getting massage oil or lotion on the bra. If your problem area is your low back, hips, buttocks, or groin, tight-fitting or large underwear can sometimes get in the way of massage work.

Body Parts treated: Back, gluteal muscles, legs (front and back), arms, head, and shoulders. Techniques Used: The therapist will apply the massage with the hands and feet. No oils or creams are used, pressure is applied all along the energy lines in the body. Passive stretching will be incorporated.

Research has shown Thai massage to beneficial for pain relief and for easing symptoms of depression and anxiety. Thai massage is generally safe, but not be suited for everyone. Make sure to consult with your healthcare provider before receiving Thai massage, especially if you have an underlying medical condition.

No you do not have to take your underwear or bra off during a massage. As always, you (the client) only undresses to your comfort level. If you want to take everything off that's up to you – whatever you're comfortable with.

Remember, it's your choice, so let your therapist know what you are comfortable with. Many customers opt to remove just the top layer as a nice balance between allowing skin access while maintaining a degree of modesty. If being partially dressed feels comfortable to you, then this is the best option.

This is a bit heavier content than normal, but we've seen some odd things online and want to be clear: breast massage is not normal. This is not something an LMT can or should ethically offer. Pec muscles, yes.

And unlike other massages, which have you remove most of your clothes, with Thai massage, you can leave your clothes on. Loose-fitting clothes are preferred.

Massages often end with you sitting up with the massage therapist behind you, working on your neck, shoulders, and head. For me, that meant she would hug me from behind, cup my breasts, and give them a little bounce. That was always followed with a chuckle.

The massage itself begins with you laying down on the ground and ends sitting up. Beginning with your feet, slowing working up, ending with the skull. This style of massage includes therapy over your arms, hands & feet, neck & back, stomach, buttocks, and the area around the breasts.

What is a milky massage in Thailand? ›

A Milk Massage in phu*ket is an efficient massage therapy to restore, sooth and relax your skin. Skin is nourished with the milk during the massage. You will enjoy a real smooth skin!

Because clothes are worn during a Thai massage, what you wear for your treatment is actually an important consideration. First and foremost, you should wear loose, comfortable clothes that doesn't restrict any movements, like you would for an active athletic activity.

Not all touching in massage is of the professional variety

Here touching with lots of physical contact is totally accepted without anyone feeling uneasy about it. But the very second the massage is over, don't even think of hugging or touching the therapist in any way! This would be considered very inappropriate.

Many people believe that during a session of Thai slimming massage, the therapist break fat deposits and cellulite with her strong arms just like a hammer. But this is just a misconception. The main effect of Thai oil massage for weight loss is achieved through direct action on the lymphatic and circulatory systems.

Traditional Thai Massage

You'll remain fully clothed during the session, and your therapist will use their hands, elbows, knees, and feet to apply pressure and stretch your muscles.

For a full-body massage, you can opt to keep your pants on or go completely in the buff. You'll find that most massage therapists are very skilled at protecting your modesty and making you feel comfortable; you'll never have to uncover anything you'd rather not.

For massages and body treatments, ideally you disrobe completely (that means underwear, too). Most spas offer paper panties to wear during body treatments (like scrubs, wraps, or self-tanning)—they don't cover much, but enough to provide a modicum of modesty.
