Went for a 90 minute traditional Thai massage with hot compression today and it was great. Definitely different from your usual experience at a spa such as Elmwood or Ritz.
The massage had a lot of stretching involved to relief tension and knots. It was a good experience and relaxing massage.
The downside was that it was in a room divided by curtains. There was privacy but no noise isolation which means when people are chatting even whispering or snoring you hear everything. This makes it difficult to relax and not be distracted.
At the end of the massage they give you a small bag of lemongrass epsom salt for a bath to end the day. It was a nice gesture from the spa to wrap up the massage.
I am glad I tried it but probably won't go back.
