Frequently asked questions
Is tipping expected?
Tipping the therapist directly is appreciated and the local norm is 50-100 baht for an hour. Larger tips are not necessary unless you booked an extended luxury treatment. The bill itself does not include service charge except at hotel spas.
How long should I plan for at Baan Thai Massage?
Allow the booked treatment time plus 20 minutes either side for changing showering and tea. A 2-hour treatment realistically takes 2.5 hours total. Most spas serve herbal tea and a snack before you leave.
Do I need a reservation at Baan Thai Massage?
Walk-ins are usually accepted during off-peak hours. For evenings 5pm-8pm or weekend slots booking 1-2 hours ahead is sensible. You can call directly or message the spa on LINE.
