I had a Thai yoga massage at Arokaya four days ago and still feel much better for it. It's the perfect combination of massage, stretching and chiropractic treatment. Highly recommended for anyone with serious muscle stiffness.
One word - amazing!! Friendly and knowledgable staff. Welcomed and my needs discussed then member of staff reccomended for what I wanted! Had an hour long deep tissue from Cherie who was fantastic only issue was wishing I'd booked a longer treatment! Can not reccomended highly enough will defiantly go back.
Venue: Reception area was clean and tidy but did smell musky/ damp. The massage room wasn’t particular spacious, had enough space for a massage bed and just enough space for the masseuse to work.
Treatment: Booked in for a 1hr deep tissue massage. Before starting massage work, I highlighted to the masseuse that my shoulders and neck were areas I wished to focus more on.
The treatment received did not feel like a deep tissue massage (definitely different to ones you get from sports therapists), it felt more like a variation of a Thai massage less physical manipulations. Very little time was spent on my problem areas, until I reminded the masseuse where my problems lay by which point it was too late. The massage itself was pretty good, however sadly it wasn’t the treatment I came for.
The ambience of treatment rooms could be improved, I appreciate it is a Thai massage spa but the music being played during the treatment didn’t help with relaxing the mind.
Overall: I appreciate long term muscular problems will require further work and I was open minded on returning back for future treatments, however sadly due to my experience I will look elsewhere for treatment.
