SPA & HEALTH RESORT
Just a decade ago, only a handful of people knew exactly what a "spa" was, and even fewer had enjoyed first-hand experience. Today, spas have become the talk of the global village. Thailand has been on the cutting edge of this trend, with its tradition of natural healing arts such as ancient Thai massage, natural springs, an abundance of medicinal flora and a deserved reputation for excellent services.

There are endless types of treatments and special programs plus varying levels of luxury: spa massage and Thai massage, aromatherapy, ayurvedic treatment, reflexology, shiatsu, hydrotherapy, mud treatment, thalassotherapy, aromatherapy, essential oils care... We've provided the basics here along with the best spa listings in Thailand.
