I have been to MANY Thai massages in my life.
Never once have I had a massage therapist manipulate my neck (like what the chiropractor does).
I was never asked. I thought the massage therapist would STRETCH my neck. This is what EVERY OTHER place I've ever been to will do. They gently stretch my neck.
Suddenly I was having my neck cracked both ways.
Do you guys realize that people literally get STROKES and DIE from these manipulations? This is why I go for massage, NOT chiropractic treatment, to AVOID these kinds of neck adjustments.
It can cause a medical condition called VAD - Vertabral Arterial Dissection. And it can cause stroke, neurological problems, and even death if untreated.
So here I am, panicking because some ignorant person decided to crank my neck without permission or notifying me.
This is completely unacceptable and I will not come back again. Hopefully I am healthy and nothing bad happened. Time will tell if I was hurt or not....

after 2h massage for 140 USD we found out that we were "storongly advised" to pay another 60 USD on top for tips.

The service itself didn't include all the professionl Thai techniques as advertised (and we are very familiar with how it's delivered by professionals all over the world and in Thailand itself). Massuse was doing something on her phone while delivering the service and at moments when she felt that we were asleep, she would almost stop moving her hands at all.
Pretty upsetting and definitely not...

I had no clue what to expect as I had never had a Thai massage before. A handful of massages on cruises or whatever arenāt even in the same universe as the lovely massage I received from Natalie at Sabai Thai Massage.
Natalie thoroughly and very respectfully massaged me from my scalp to my toes! She asked me if she could walk on my back (she didnāt put all her weight on me, just enough to create wide and deep gentle pressure), and she massaged and stretched my body until I felt like a happy little pain-free wet noodle.
I look forward to my...
