Sense Tara Thai Massage Tauranga is a Thai massage studio at 40 Fourth Avenue in Tauranga, which the website calls a sanctuary of calm. The studio offers traditional Thai massage, a Thai oil massage with rhythmic pressure, gliding strokes and stretching, and a massage with firm pressure and slow strokes aimed at deep muscle tension and chronic pain. It also offers an essential-oil massage for relaxation, a treatment for the upper body that eases knots, and a warm herbal poultice treatment that uses Thai herbs. A pregnancy massage is offered after the first trimester for lower back pain, swelling and fatigue, and a mat-based treatment works on flexibility and stretching.
The studio is open seven days a week from 10am to 7pm. The website says the therapists are skilled and well trained, and that each session is tailored to the client's body. The studio combines traditional Thai massage with modern therapeutic methods, and the website describes the setting as a peaceful studio for escape from daily stress.
