Sanctuary Thai Massage and Spa — Attraction in Kaipātiki

Just want to say once again a huge thank you to Fon for her massage treatment today, Friday 31/5. Truly incredible master of her craft of healing massage. Therapeutic. Mesmerising. Charming. Calming. Healing.

She is truly gifted in understanding the human physiology. Without question, Fon’s attention to detail is awe inspiring. She truly connects with the physiological form of her client. Navigating, and weaving herself into the landscape of the body with the upmost care, sincerity, and confident self-belief in her craft of Thai massage. Applying the right amount of therapeutic pressure to untangle the knots left behind by daily life, whilst simultaneously delivering calming relaxation to the whole body - head to toe.

Fon’s craft of massage is an alchemy of therapeutic senses. As her hands tour every fibre of the body, she creates powerful purposeful quakes deep within, as quickly as she leaves behind a blissful sanctuary of restored well-being, and calm. Magical.

Without one spoken word, she applies her ancestral knowledge of Thai massage - nuat phaen boran (นวดแผนโบราณ, 'ancient-style massage') - across the realms of intoxicating therapeutic pleasure, healing tranquility. Always applied with a phenomenal level of finesse, confidence, inner-strength, and calming poise, her movements are her language. Cultivated from a genuine desire to heal people.

Whenever I am with Fon, I am deeply immersed into the realm of holistic therapeutic senses. Quite an exceptional experience. Always departing with a feeling of purity, and relaxation.

Simply, Fon is fastidious in her ability to connect herself with her client’s needs. A delightful spirit with a warmth which envelopes you with a genuine sense of care and love for the well-being of all people. Her professionalism, personality, and aura is quite capable of entrancing you. Sculpting you into a positive place of blissful therapeutic relaxation. Her primary purpose is to help her clients achieve a healthy lifestyle through the powers of Thai...

This was a surprise gift booked by my partner for me 🥹 I went on 23/03/24 and had a full body oil massage and head massage (I'll have to double check with him) but it was 1hr and 45mins.

As this was my first time getting a massage I was pretty nervous but my partner had read through the reviews and reassured me. From the moment we arrived the staff was super friendly and I was guided to a room that was dimly lit with a massive massage table and smelt divine. The masseuse told me to take off my clothes, leaving on my underwear and place them in to a basket and she'll be back. When she came back, she started on my back and said she'd go medium as she knew it was my first time but to tell her at any point if it was too hard. Let me just say....

IT WAS 1 HOUR AND 45MINS OF BLISS. The best present ever. I never realised how tight I am in my shoulders!! I wish everyone could experience this at least once. Pat was my masseuse and she was fantastic, super strong and skilled in what she does ❤️

Thank you so much, absolutely blown away with how good it was, how friendly the staff are and how comfortable they made the whole experience. I also was offered a refreshement afterwards. Highly recommend, felt like a million bucks will 100% be back again! Thank you so much the team at Sanctuary...

Walking into Sanctuary Thai Massage was like finding an oasis in a desert of mediocrity. I’ve been to plenty of massage spots in the area—places that promise much and deliver little. Too often, it’s all limp hands, awkward silences, and a vague sense that you’ve been conned out of your money. But this? This was different.

I’d just dragged myself through the first grueling week back at the gym, every muscle in my body screaming at me for my hubris. I needed help—real, skilled, borderline magical help. And that’s exactly what I got. The woman who worked on me didn’t just go through the motions; she communicated. She asked the right questions, read my body like a map, and worked her way through the tension with the kind of precision and care you don’t often find in this world.

The pressure? Perfect. Enough to make you wince in the best possible way, the kind that tells you you’re being put back together, piece by stubborn piece. By the time she was done, I felt like a new man—loose, light, and ready to face the world again.

Sanctuary Thai Massage doesn’t just meet your expectations; it obliterates them. It’s the kind of place that makes you realize just how bad the other spots were. A breath of fresh air in an industry that so often...
