Learning Thai massage in Bangkok, Chiang Mai or Phuket, Thailand

Thai massage is an ancient tradition, dating back to over 2,500 years ago. This type of massage is good to help the body eliminating toxins and rebalancing itself. Thai massage is a combination of passive yoga exercises to stretch the body and pressure on the body’s energy points. If you are fascinated by this ancient art and want to learn it, there is no better place to learn it than Thailand itself.

Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, boasts the best known and most ancient school of Thai massage, WatPo Thai Traditional Massage School located in the WatPo temple. You can easily combine a holiday in Bangkok (where you can book accommodation, visit wonderful tourist attractions and enjoy delicious Thai food), with a course in Thai massage.

If you prefer to travel in the northern parts of Thailand, in Chiang Mai there is the Shivagakomarpaj Institute, a traditional medicine hospital, which is the headquarters for the northern lineage of Thai massage.

Even though the two schools mentioned above are the most famous and most important in Thailand, it is possible to learn Thai massage everywhere in the country, including, for example, on the island of Phuket. You can stay in a hotel or villa in Phuket for a few nights, enjoying the sun and the sea, and learn Thai massage in one of Phuket’s several spa resorts.
