The Perfect Massage, Factory-Style

You kind of always wanted to support your local massage shop. You didn’t mind the shabby interior and the noisy Thai soap opera running in the background.

The massage girl’s husband had run away. She has a kid or two to feed – and supports grandma who takes care of the kids and the kids of her other sisters.

Her massage was all right, but more importantly, giving her some business and a good tip made you feel like making a good deed.

The “pak soi” massage was my massage. Until February 9th this year.

When I entered the local branch of “Health Land – Spa & Massage” for the first time.

Nice indirect lights and interior design, tempting fragrances in the air – and a rush of people.

Goodness gracious me, felt like in a factory! People moving in and out like on an assembly line!

It goes without saying that the parking lot was completely packed.

What followed then, was an orgasmic foot massage.

How the girl knew her biz. Relieved of stress and tension, geared up my circulation and fostered the restoration of the body’s natural state of equilibrium.

By inflicting me those sweet irresistible pains only carefully maltreated foot muscles and tendons can give.

Left that place like walking on clouds.

A perfect foot massage sets you back 250 baht – a good tip is well deserved.

Now you wonder even more how you can pay a multiple of that at the myriad of spas charging you thousands of baht for a little touchy-touchy.

Promise you: You’ll venture to Health Land again and again.

Says its website: “While the settings are grand and luxurious, our services are priced at the same level as in general massage centers rather than the high-end spas found in hotels. Attention to fine details of customer service and satisfaction remain our key goals in striving to offer superb services that are worth the customer every single penny. Henceforth, customers who come to visit Health Land are left with the impression that we provide better premium services and offer a heavenly escape from high-stress lives. Our broad customer base include expatriates, office workers, housewives, university students as will as foreign customers who come from overseas to visit us.”

    What kind of massage is this? Do they also provide an extra service at the weekend?

    The chance of being struck by three lightnings in a row is most probably far greater than engaging in any extra-curricular activities at Health Land.
