Deep Tissue Massage?

Featured Replies

Anyone know of a good place to get a leg massage, deep tissue, or swedish massage? Having some sports related pain l would like to get worked out. Thanks!

I know a masseuse who might be what you're looking for but she only does call outs. She specializes in Swedish massages and trigger point therapy. Most of her clients are Muay Thai-ers and Boxers. BUT she's not that kind of a masseuse. Have to make that part clear because.... well, this is Thailand. :)

The kind of massage you're looking for here, in the Thai style, would be called นวดจับเส้น (nuat jap sen, or "grab nerve/tendon massage"). I've had work done on my forearm for tendonitis, and it worked amazingly well. A lot of the workers in the ordinary massage places are trained to do this, but you have to ask for it--if they can't do it, they can usually direct you to someone who will. I know one woman who accepts clients by appointment only, because her book is so full, she is a great healer, but the place is a little hard to get to, back in the sois between Phrom Phong and Thonglor. PM me if you need phone and direction.
