After 3 days of painting the town red and intensive non-stop 'activities' I am feeling the strain. I have to pull the brakes and 'take it easy' for a day or two to 'recharge' my battery.
What I need now is a good traditional Thai massage with no 'hanky-panky' Can somene recommend a place for a good old massage (name & location of place and name of girl) ?
Thank you.

if you want to travel a bit ... Havent been for sometime, but a number in the "Pinkgaow" area are very good, best one is over the bridge [near sanum luang] and then midway between the river and the first main crossroad, Arun amarin. Tell the taxi "Pinkgaow" - Get him to pull over to the left by the bus stop when you first cross the bridge, [ "rio sigh, - yut tee nee "] i.e. keep to the left, then stop here .. get over to the footpath, and walk up about 200 yards, its just back a little, but clearly visable, you walk up a flight of stairs, plenty of girls to choose from, about 180 bt for 2 hours, tip up to you. If your there late afternoon/early evening, just near that bus stop, is a large restaurant that spills out onto the street, all the staff have yelow shirts, very fresh seafood, about 1/3rd of the price you pay anywhere else - plus does you good to get out of the "touristy' areas occasionally !

Hi thaiprivateeye,
What is the name of the MP and the road it is located on ?
So far, I have been to two Thai traditional massage parlours. The first one was a place called "Tai Sei' on Silom Road where I paid 400B for 2 hours and the other one was called "May Massage" located besides the Imperial Queen's Park Hotel at Sukhumvit soi 22 where I paid 250B for a 2-hours massage. Both places didn't provide good massage. In fact they hurt my chest when they asked me to lie on my stomach and then pressed/stepped very hard on my back. After this experience I might think twice about going for another Thai traditional massage again !
Can somebody else recommend a few other 'good' Thai traditional massage parlours.

Just forget the name of this place, but not hard to spot, big MASSAGE sign up, and as mentioned, on the main road, left hand side, midway between the river and Arun Amarin road, Pingkaow. They dont do the back walking bit, and much cheaper outside the tourist areas, plus you still get treated like a bit of a novelty !!

I bought a book last night at Asia Books at World Trade Center and it's called "GUIDE TO HEALTHY LIVING IN THAILAND AND SOUTHEAST ASIA" and it is published by Asia Books.
There is a chapter titled "Health Hazards in Massage Parlours".
It mentioned two parlour perils :-
"1. ÝMany girls in massage parlours are not qualified to provide genuine Thai massage. Do not allow any masseuse (qualified or not) to perform any procedure that you feel uncomfortable with, or that you think may cause damage.
2. ÝSome of the practices of Thai massage are of dubious physical value. Indeed, some are outright dangerous. You are not oblidged to accept every procedure carried out as part of a full massage. "
" Massages provided in Thai traditional massage parlours range from very meek to rather vigorous activities.Many tend towards the latter, and prospective clients should be aware of some attendant risks that are part of the Thai massage experience.
Pulling of fingers and toes until they "click" is common,and the authors (all doctors) have seen several dislocations of fingers and toes as a result. The practice of walking barefoot on the client's back while he is positioned face down on a firm bed is also not uncommon. One author (doctor ) has seen at least one elderly visitor who had to be carried out of a massage parlour on a Ýstretcher having suffered an acute herniated intervertebral (spinal) disc as a result of this treatment. Jerking of the patron's neck into various directions can be risky and may result in cervical spine dislocations in the elderly or weak.
One common and dangerous maneuver practised by virtually all massage girls in Asia is to push firmly down on both femoral arteries of the victim's groin for several minutes, and then to release the pressure suddenly. This results in a flushed feeling in one's legs and genital area. Embolic phenomena (blood clots) and sudden obstruction in the leg arteries, particularly in older people,have been reported as a result of this practice.
It appears that the better parlours in Bangkok do not pose serious health hazards as long as the visitor avoids the above practices "
The authors of the book mentioned above are all medical doctors.
So there you have it - warnings from doctors that Thai traditional massage have many health hazards !!!!!!!!!!
Think twice before going for a Thai traditional massage.
Based on my many experiences with Thai trational massage I find that at least 95% or more of the masseuses ARE NOT TRAINED at all.
Having said the above, can any brother recommend a really good Thai traditional massage parlour where the girls are fully trained ?

I think their is a school that teaches massage in Bangkok I don't know the name. You could check the telephone book. Back in 1999, I had a great massage at the Banyon Tree hotel. Both times the girls knew what they were doing.

well Pussy Lover, guess The Docs. have a fair bit to say on visiting "Non" Traditional Thai massage parlours as well !! - lets face it, you can get run over by the # 46 bus trying to cross to Nana Plaza ! - if anything isn't to your fancy, just yell out "jep" [ pain] they arent machoists, Im sure they will ease up, I know the place i mentioned, and many others similar, the girls are good, but get tired after an hour of the 2 hour massage, and usually quite happy just to rest up or even have you give them a bit of a rub if you feel like it ! - allegedly the "Blind massuers' are the best, most proffesionally trained, - but Im afraid still like the girl to be at least a little appealing !

thaiprivateeye,
With due respect to your advice,I was thinking of going to Wat Pho for a 3/4 hr foot reflexology (250B) followed by a 2 hr Thai traditional massage (500B) [ Total cost for 3.75 hrs : 750B] instead of going to the MP at Pinkglaow as recommended by you because I will be in unfamiliar territory. What do you think, which is better : Wat Pho or Pinkglaow ? Please advise.

I also suggest a visit to the Chaopraya Hotel in Ratchadapisek Road. Do not confuse this place with the MP at CP1 and CP2....
You can easily get to Chaopraya Hotel through Ratchadapisek Road around Suttisan Av. Just tell the taxi, SUTTISAN-RATCHADAA and you will see this hotel. It is a very upscale place and the service for traditional Thai massage is 250 B. Can tip the girl with 100 B. This will be suffi. This is the favorite massage place for a large number of expats and tourists. Hope this helps.
