Kim's runs several massage houses across Phuket Old Town, including one on Thalang Road at the heart of the weekend walking street. Its three-hour Kim's Secret package moves from a body scrub into a coconut oil massage before ending with a head and facial treatment. Tea arrives before and after each treatment, with cookies on the side.
“Massage feels so authentic and good. Feels refreshing too! Very affordable.”

Locals and travelers come to MAHA Cheeva for traditional Thai massage done the classical way, with deep stretches and rhythmic pressure worked along the body's energy lines. The studio puts the skill of its therapists ahead of spa luxury, and its Thai massage, combining stretching with muscle relief, suits anyone stiff from exercise. The foot massage works the pressure points of the feet and finishes with an herbal balm.
