Siam Thai Massage is a traditional Thai massage studio at 720 Mount Albert Road, at the Royal Oak roundabout in Auckland. The website describes its work as Nuad Phaen Boran, the traditional Thai massage that combines deep muscle work, stretching, acupressure and yoga-style positions. A full-body treatment adds hot stones and oils, and the studio also offers deep tissue, foot, and back, head and shoulder massage. Reviews mention 60-minute massages. The website describes a tranquil, relaxed studio with a team of qualified Thai massage therapists.
Customers praise the placement and flow of the work, and say the therapists fit a great deal into a session. Some say it leaves them feeling thoroughly worked over, and one mentions being lucky enough to have four hands working at once. The main complaint is pressure: one reviewer found the work too firm on the bones and heavy on one muscle, which left them sore afterwards. Another was harsher about the approach. The mixed view is about how firm the massage is. Among the other Thai massage studios within a kilometre, Baankaew Thai Massage, 1.0 km away, rates 4.4 from 55 reviews, and of the two nearby studios with ten or more reviews, none rates higher than this one.
