About Ancient Thai Massage
The friendly staff at Ancient Thai Massage tailor their massage methods to fit each client's individual needs. Guests are invited to try a couple's massage with a loved one, or a treatment to soothe inflammation and tension. Communication between therapist and guest is key during these and any other massages; if the procedure becomes too painful or ineffective, Ancient Thai's massage therapists are quick to adjust. After the procedure, therapists may offer guests a cup of warm, soothing Thai tea.
