JHolmesJr Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 This is about a normal thai or oil massage with no happy endings. Last month I asked for a oil massage …. my instincts told me 90 min was enough….but the masseuse was so good, I told her to make it 120min. However I found that after 90 min or so, she was just doing 'repeats' on areas that had been visited before….just faffin' around. Im now inclined to stick with 90 minutes for a massage….does anyone here have anything to say on the 90 vs 120 min massage….please don't say you should do whatever you like or up to you…..lol.

eldragon Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I like 90 minutes. 120 gets boring. 60 is not enough time, especially if you're tall. Plus, I kinda like the occasional happy ending, and that cuts into your massage time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieH Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Depends entirely on the masseuse, you either end up irritated, bored, or fall asleep. Rarely beyond 90 minutes are you wanting "more" unless exceptional. Try having a combo, get them to do foot/lower leg, massage first, then follow that with oil/full body massage.

lovelomsak Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 With oil I would say 90 minutes is plenty. A real thai massage should be 2 hours. That said I havenot been able to get a real thai massage for years. They used to bend me twist me have me in a sweat and at the end exhausted but so relaxed and after a shower feeling great. Now its more just a deep tissue at the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sipi Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I like a deep massage and can't knead bread for longer than 20 minutes without a break. For me one hour is plenty, both for me and her/ him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChangMaiSausage Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 (edited) Depending on the massage school/shop if its a normal oil / Thai massage shop I go for an hour. If its at one of the places I like and feel as if I'm getting something out of it (not a happy ending) I normally ask for one hour Thai followed by one hour oil.

One of her friends had suggested it. I got a guy and it was probably one of the most painful 60 minutes of my life. He used his elbows to massage the muscles and I am sure he was trying to make the farang squirm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BngkkB Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 If you went in to the massage with 90 minute agreement then changed it at the end and added an additional 30 minutes, of course she had to go back around again. If you had asked for 2 hours in the start then she would have taken a little more time in each area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexRRR Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I like 120 min don't care about repeating, but often short changed and the closer to the naught areas the more I'm short changed, got tired of getting offered happy endings so look for further way places, last massage girl forgot to give me my change of 400, played dumb, 600 for a 2 hr massage that went for 1hr and 40 min including 2 showers, after threatening to go back inside to voice my displeasure within ear shot of other customers my change was forth coming.

samuijimmy Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I believe in "No pain no gain" one to one and a half hours, when done correctly it's much better! Oil massage is a waste of time and money as far as I am concerned! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jangot Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 My regular is 3 hours. Two hours of Thai, followed by one hour of oil. For me, that's a great combination. Relaxing but not boring.

thaibeachlovers Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 First massage I had in Thailand only booked 1 hour. This being the 70s, she ( clothes never came off ) gave me a long wash down on a special table first, and then started on my legs. Got as far as my knees and telephone rang- time is up! I always wondered what would have happened if I'd booked 3 hours! Doubt any massage places other than soapy massage give wash down anymore.

Saastrajaa Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 The traditional Thai massage (nuat phaen boraan) course that they study lasts exactly 2 hours. Any less and you're cheating yourself out of all of the benefits. There is not repeating in this course. And you should not be paying much more than 300 baht for those 2 hours. Oil massage is a waste of time/prelude to sex. Period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uli65 Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Thai Massage is a waste of time. I do only oil massage by experts and not in thailand because the have no idea of the human anatomy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidBonnie Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 An hour is plenty and too hard is not a good thing. There is a lot of <deleted> talked about Thai massage but they are taught only basic physiology on thai massage course even when they study long enough to get a licence to open a real shop. They can often do more damage than good especially when they walk on someone's back and legs. Only 100 baht an hour down my way because it's near the temple where they all learn.

What a good thai massage does is break down damaged tissue same as physio. I think thats why thais are so flexable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thongkorn Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Believe me if you had a real massage, 30 minutes would be long enough. There is a Blind massage place in Pattaya, near the Dolphin roundabout, They are all blind, and have been taught to massage so they can earn a living , I have been numerous times. They are that good they can find any problems with your muscles, I have sciatica, They always find and tell me, They can sort most muscular problems out. Its not unpleasant but its no picnic, But thats what real massages are like , not the play ones you see every other shop along the Soys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keeniau96 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 I get real traditional Thai massage every week on Tuesday and Friday. Two hours and I specify hard. Masseuse is a cousin of my wife and definitely on the heavy side, so no amusement, just strong real workout. The true traditional one spends too much time on the legs and not enough on the back (my weak area) so I have her do a modified version starting with strong workout on the back.
