The revitalisation of body and mind is the objective at a growing number of luxurious spas and health resorts in Thailand. Situated in major city hotels and idyllic beachside locations, these spas provide every facility to promote health, control weight, or simply to recover from the stress of modern work and lifestyles.
In such an environment, the visitor will be pampered, yet experiences a regime of exercise and diet control designed for each individual. A variety of massage and beauty treatments will also help to return the traveler home in better shape, physically and mentally.

Some people today believe that traditional massage is doomed. But this fear is nothing new. Two hundred years ago King Rama 3, alarmed at the dwindling number of practitioners of ancient massage ordered that all tenets of the precious knowledge should be carved in stone, in case they may be irrevocably lost. These inscribed slabs can be seen today in the compound of Wat Po, one of the better centers of traditional massage.

Following on this tradition, some establishments have employed masseuses trained in the oldest academy in Thailand and offer special courses tailor-made to the customers requirements. They usually follow the same basic principles, but the style may not always be the same, with emphasis on this and that methods varying from place to place.

The masseuses do not only press the parts the patient can't reach, they also stretch them. One of the main areas in need of attention is the spine. One of the standard stretching routines for this main pillar of the body is to bend the patient over backwards, so that the spine rests on the masseuses upright knees. It is a spectacular trick that needs to be done just right if its not to cause more harm than good. The good masseuses usually start on the legs, move through every nook and cranny of aches and tension, finishing with a facial tone-up. To provide the greatest convenience and hygiene, the treatment takes place either in your home or hotel room, just give them a call.
