Thailand - a massage lovers paradise!


If you love massages as much as I do, Thailand is the place to be! Foot or Thai massages are available at every corner, and cost about $6 per hour!!! So Mark and I have been enjoying our daily massage - a luxury we will have to give up soon...Foot massages are heavenly: mellow and relaxing...Thai massages on the other hand can be quite painful -but so good! Thai massage is totally different from the kind of feel-good deep tissue or Swedish kind of massage you can get in the Western world...elbows, heels, feet, knuckles all find their way in between bones and into muscles you didn't even know you had...and don't be surprised when your massagist is standing on your hands, walking on your back, or twisting her legs around you while swinging your body from one side to the other...as I said, it's a massage lovers paradise...
