The Thai Touch - Traditional Thai Massage Therapy

Reviewed By larishan2016 - Tulbagh, South Africa

Thai Touch Ballito is therapy for a weary mind, body and spirit. I schedule it twice monthly as the sleep after the massage is the dreamiest and most relaxing. My personal therapist MAM is a healer, she is the best and knows exactly which areas are problematic and heals them. I feel so relaxed and healed after the massage. It’s my favorite self-love gift. Everything is so professional and they are the most accommodating especially for professionals that finish work late. They always manage to accommodate us and if running late they call to inform us. It’s absolutely delightful .. highly recommended Thai oil massage 90min... best part is the clicking knuckles that brings relief and whole body stretch at the end Soothing medicine for the drained soul???? ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
