What should I wear for a Thai massage?
Loose, comfortable clothing you can stretch and move in — gym or yoga wear is ideal, avoiding zips, buckles or stiff fabric. You stay fully clothed throughout and no oil is used, so there's no undressing. Many therapists can provide suitable clothing if you ask when booking.
Does Thai massage hurt?
It's firm and can feel intense during the deeper stretches and acupressure, but it shouldn't be painful — tell your therapist your preferred pressure at the start and speak up during the session. First-timers are often surprised by the assisted stretching; feeling worked-but-loosened afterwards is normal, and some mild next-day soreness can happen.
How is Thai massage different from a Swedish or oil massage?
Swedish and most oil massages have you lying still while the therapist works your muscles with flowing strokes. Thai massage is active: you're clothed, on a mat, and moved through assisted stretches combined with pressure along the body's energy lines. If you want deep relaxation and to drift off, oil massage suits better; if you want to feel stretched, mobile and energised, Thai is the one.
Who is Thai massage good for?
People who want to improve flexibility and mobility, release deep tension, or who find lying still under oil less satisfying than being actively stretched. It's popular with desk workers, athletes and anyone stiff from sitting. If you have injuries, joint problems or are pregnant, mention it first — the stretching may need modifying or avoiding.

Thai massage is active and done clothed on a mat, using assisted stretching and pressure along energy lines. Oil massage has you lying still while the therapist works the muscles. Thai leaves most people energised rather than sleepy.
Tell your therapist first. The assisted stretching may need to be modified or avoided with injuries, joint problems or during pregnancy — a good therapist will adapt or recommend a gentler treatment.
