FAQs
Have questions? We've got answers.
For traditional Thai massage, wear loose, comfortable clothing that allows for movement - we provide Thai pants and a shirt if needed. Thai massage is performed fully clothed on a comfortable mat. For oil-based massages like Thai Aroma, Swedish, or Deep Tissue, you'll undress to your comfort level and be professionally draped throughout the session.
Traditional Thai massage ($120-$230) is performed fully clothed on a mat using stretching, acupressure, and rhythmic compression - no oils are used. Thai Aroma massage ($120-$230) blends Thai and Swedish techniques with aromatic oils on a massage table, combining the therapeutic benefits of Thai bodywork with the relaxation of oil massage. Both improve circulation and relieve tension, but Thai Aroma is more calming while traditional Thai focuses on flexibility and energy flow.
Thai massage uses deep pressure and stretching, so you may feel some intensity in tight areas, but it shouldn't be painful. Our therapists adjust pressure to your comfort level - communication is encouraged throughout the session. If you prefer gentler pressure, Swedish massage ($120-$175) or Thai Aroma massage ($120-$230) may be better options.
For your first visit, we recommend 90 minutes ($175-$220) to allow time for consultation and thorough treatment without feeling rushed. If you're short on time or want to try a specific area, 60-minute sessions ($120-$190) work well. For chronic tension or full-body focus, 120 minutes ($230) provides the most comprehensive care.
Buccal facial massage involves working inside the mouth to release deep facial tension and sculpt the cheeks and jawline from the inside out. The 60-minute session ($190) focuses on intra-oral massage combined with external facial work, while the 75-minute session ($220) adds lymphatic drainage and scalp massage. This technique provides natural lifting and contouring that external massage alone can't achieve.
Yes, our prenatal massage is specifically designed for expectant mothers. The 60-minute session ($150) or 90-minute session ($220) helps reduce lower back pain, swelling, and stress while improving circulation. We use safe positioning and gentle techniques appropriate for each trimester.
All massage sessions include consultation, treatment time, and post-massage care recommendations. You can enhance any massage with hot stone therapy ($10), herbal balm ($10), or warming ginger oil ($15). Robes, slippers, and tea are provided. Gratuity is not included in the service price.
Both use firm pressure to address muscle tension. Deep tissue massage ($120-$230) focuses on chronic tension, adhesions, and structural issues - ideal for ongoing pain and stiffness. Sport massage ($120-$230) is tailored for athletes and active individuals, focusing on flexibility, recovery, and injury prevention. Sport massage can be scheduled before workouts for warm-up or after for recovery.
Yes, foot reflexology applies targeted pressure to specific points on the feet that correspond to different body systems. The 30-minute session ($75) is perfect for a quick stress-relief treatment, while the 60-minute session ($120) provides a more thorough full-body balancing experience through pressure-point work.
Gua Sha uses smooth stone tools to massage and scrape the skin, releasing tension and boosting circulation. The 30-minute facial Gua Sha ($75) focuses on the face to reduce puffiness and enhance your natural glow. The 90-minute full-body Gua Sha ($190) incorporates both facial and body techniques for complete lymphatic drainage and muscle tension relief.
Yes, we can accommodate couples massage sessions. Please call us directly at the number on our website to check availability and book side-by-side treatments in our couples room.
The 90-minute cupping massage ($190) combines full-body massage with cupping therapy, where suction cups create negative pressure to release deep muscle tension and improve circulation. This technique is especially effective for chronic tightness and stagnation. Note that cupping can leave temporary circular marks on the skin that fade within a few days.
Yes, our neck, back, and shoulder massage targets upper body tension from desk work and stress. The 30-minute session ($75) provides quick relief, while the 45-minute session ($95) allows more time to address deeper muscle tension and improve posture. This is our most popular treatment for office workers.
For general wellness and stress relief, monthly massages work well for most people. If you have chronic pain, tension, or athletic training, weekly or bi-weekly sessions provide better results. During your first visit, your therapist can recommend a maintenance schedule based on your specific needs and goals.
We accept all major credit cards, debit cards, and cash. Payment is due at the time of service. Gift certificates are also available for purchase.
We require 24 hours notice for cancellations or rescheduling. Late cancellations or no-shows may be subject to a cancellation fee. Please call us as soon as possible if you need to change your appointment.
