Additional tips
Don’t eat a heavy meal before the massage
If it's your first time at the clinic or spa,
arrive at least 10 minutes early to complete the necessary forms. Otherwise,
arrive 5 minutes early so you can have a few minutes to rest and relax before
starting the massage.
Be sure that your massage therapist has your
complete health history, because people with certain conditions should not have
Thai massage.
If you feel discomfort at any time, let your
massage therapist know.
