Sabaidee Massage

After several days of walking around Bangkok and exploring the busy streets, we decided to treat ourselves to a spa visit. The main reason we chose this particular place was because it was cheaper compared to others in the area and conveniently just a few steps away from our Airbnb. We booked a 30-minute Thai full body massage, although I had originally asked for one hour. I think there may have been a bit of a language barrier, so it ended up being only half an hour. Normally, I prefer a mild to medium pressure during massages, but this time the pressure was much more intense than what I’m used to. To be fair, I could have asked the therapist to go lighter, but I decided not to because I felt that her technique was actually helping to release a lot of tension in my back and neck. It was painful at times, but in a “good way,” since I could really feel the knots loosening. One thing that stood out to me, though, was the way the treatment started. In my home country, before the massage, the spa usually gives more attention to the foot cleansing process—they’ll wash the feet thoroughly, massage them a little, and even apply a salt scrub as part of the ritual. Here, however, the foot wash lasted maybe five seconds at most, which felt very rushed and left me a little disappointed. Considering that the price of the massage here is actually higher than what I normally pay back home, I was expecting a bit more attention to detail and overall customer satisfaction. A week before we went to Vietnam and in vietnam Hanoi the service was superb and cost way less than here. That said, the massage itself did relieve a lot of my soreness, and I appreciated the therapist’s skill, even though it was more intense than I had anticipated. Overall, it was a decent experience for convenience and price, but I think there’s room for improvement, especially in terms of service quality and the little details that make a spa visit feel more complete and relaxing.

**Not Recommended** I had a 1-hour foot massage for 350 baht, and unfortunately, it did not meet my expectations. The therapist's technique was too gentle for my liking, even after I requested a different therapist. I wouldn't recommend this place for those who prefer a firmer massage or are accustomed to more intense treatments.
