Thai massage is a combination of assisted yogic stretches and acupressure that stimulates the Sen (energy) lines to restore the body’s balance. More rigorous than a traditional massage, therapists will knead, press and stretch muscles with their hands and feet to release blocked energy channels, reduce tension, and improve overall health. Thai massages don’t tend to require clients to remove their clothes.

The key differences are technique, setting and purpose. Thai massage uses stretching, compression and acupressure with the client clothed on a mat: it's more active and energising. Swedish massage uses long gliding strokes and kneading with oil on a massage table: it's more passive and deeply relaxing. Thai massage also works with energy lines, while Swedish focuses primarily on muscle relaxation through the superficial tissue layers.

A Thai massage typically costs between $55 and $190 for a 60-minute session, depending on the therapist and clinic. Traditional Thai massage is often more affordable than oil-based or spa-style treatments. Fresha shows upfront pricing for every service before you book.

Thai massage is known for improving flexibility and joint mobility, relieving muscle tension and chronic pain, reducing stress and anxiety, boosting energy levels and improving circulation. Many people find it particularly effective for back pain, stiffness and sports recovery due to its focus on stretching, decompression and targeted pressure work along the body.
