Thai massage
What is original Thai massage and how is it different from others?
Original Thai massage (Nuad Thai) combines acupressure, stretching, and gentle body movements to improve flexibility, circulation, and energy flow. Unlike classic oil massage, it is performed fully clothed, on a mat, without oil.
What are the benefits of Thai massage?
Thai massage improves circulation, relieves stress and tension, reduces back and muscle pain, and restores energy and balance to body and mind.
Does Thai massage hurt?
It should not. The therapist adjusts the pressure and the depth of each stretch to you, and you can ask for stronger or gentler pressure at any time.
What should I wear?
For traditional Thai massage we give you loose, comfortable clothes to change into, so you don’t need to bring anything. It is performed fully clothed and without oil. For oil, M-Centar, hot stone, peeling, back and pregnancy massage you keep your underwear on and stay covered with a towel. For foot reflexology you stay dressed and only take off your shoes and socks.
Is Thai massage suitable for athletes?
Absolutely. Our therapists work with professional athletes, including water-polo players, gymnasts, and NBA stars. Thai techniques are perfect for muscle recovery and improving flexibility.
Are your therapists from Thailand?
Yes. All our therapists are native Thais with professional training and years of experience from massage schools and wellness centers in Bangkok and Chiang Mai.
Who should not have a Thai massage?
If you are pregnant, injured, recovering from surgery or have a heart or blood pressure condition, tell us before you book. During pregnancy we recommend our pregnancy massage instead.
Our other massages
What are the most popular massages at M-Centar?
Our most popular treatments are: Original Thai Massage, M-Centar Massage (a mix of Thai and sports massage), Hot Stone Massage, Pregnancy Massage, and Foot Reflexology.
What is M-Centar massage and how strong is the pressure?
M-Centar massage combines Thai massage with sports massage techniques and elements of yoga and acupressure, for the back and full body. It is done with oil. The pressure follows your preference and your therapist’s recommendation based on your current condition, for example sore muscles after training. You keep your underwear on and stay covered with a towel. Sessions last 30, 60, 90 or 120 minutes, from €30.
How is oil massage different from traditional Thai massage?
Oil massage uses oil applied to the skin and smooth strokes. Traditional Thai massage is done fully clothed, without oil, with acupressure and assisted stretching.
What is a Thai oil massage?
A full-body massage with warm aromatic oils and long, flowing strokes. The pressure is light to medium, so it suits you if you want to relax rather than stretch.
What is a hot stone massage?
A Thai massage in which the therapist uses heated stones to warm the muscles. The heat helps release deeper tension and improves circulation.
What is a peeling massage?
A full-body exfoliation that gently removes dead skin cells, followed by a relaxing massage. Your skin feels smoother and refreshed afterwards.
What does a back massage include?
The therapist focuses on your back, neck and shoulders and works out tension caused by sitting, stress and poor posture.
What is foot reflexology?
A massage that applies pressure to specific points on the feet. In reflexology these points are linked to other parts of the body, so the treatment relaxes the whole body, not only the feet.
Are we massaged in the same room?
Yes. You are massaged side by side in the same room, each by your own Thai therapist.
Is massage safe during pregnancy?
Our pregnancy massage is adapted for expectant mothers, with gentle pressure and a comfortable position. Check with your doctor first, especially in the first trimester or if your pregnancy is high-risk.
From which week of pregnancy can I book?
We recommend waiting until the second trimester, from about week 13. Tell us how far along you are when you book.
