Book a Thai massage →Why book a Thai massage at home?
A Thai massage uses traditional Thai techniques: rhythmic pressure with the palms, thumbs and forearms, combined with assisted stretches that move your arms, legs and back through a comfortable range. You stay dressed in loose clothes and little or no oil is used. In Thailand it is often given on a mat. For a Thai massage at home in Dubai, your RHEA therapist works with you on the massage table they bring.

Who a Thai massage suits
- You feel stiff after long days at a desk and like the idea of being gently stretched.
- You prefer to stay in comfortable clothes instead of undressing for an oil massage.
- You enjoy yoga or pilates and want a session that feels active rather than sleepy.
- You have just landed in Dubai and want to loosen up after hours in a plane seat.
- You like medium to firm pressure and a steady, rhythmic pace.
What does a 90-minute Thai massage at home include?
Ninety minutes of hands-on time, enough for a full sequence of pressure and stretches from feet to neck without rushing. Your therapist brings the massage table and fresh linens, and uses only a little oil if you want it. It costs AED 550 with travel within our areas included. Setup and pack-away time is not taken from your session.
Thai, Swedish or sports: how they differ
| Massage | Pressure | Clothing and oil | Best if you want |
|---|---|---|---|
| Thai | 3 to 4 of 5 | Loose clothes, little or no oil | Stretching and rhythmic pressure |
| Swedish | 2 of 5 | Under linens, with oil | To relax and unwind |
| Sports | 3 to 4 of 5 | Under linens, with oil | A session around your training |
What to wear and how to prepare
Choose loose, soft clothes you can move in: a T-shirt with jogging trousers, leggings or light cotton trousers. Leave jeans, belts and jewellery aside. Your therapist brings the table and linens, so you only need a clear space of about two by two metres.
Try not to eat a heavy meal in the hour before. If you are new to Thai massage, say so at the start: your therapist can keep the stretches gentle and build up slowly.
Stretching with care
Thai massage includes stretches, so tell your therapist about any recent injury, operation, joint problem or pregnancy before you start. Every stretch is optional and can be left out. Pregnant guests should book a pregnancy massage instead.
Add-ons, if you like
Popular with Thai massage: the Eye Mask (AED 45) and the Scalp & Hair Ritual (AED 90). Add them when you book.
| Aromatherapy | AED 45 |
| Eye Mask | AED 45 |
| Muscle Relax Oil | AED 45 |
| Red Light LED Face Mask | AED 90 |
| Nourishing Ritual | AED 90 |
| Scalp & Hair Ritual | AED 90 |

Where Thai massage comes from
Thai massage has been practised in Thailand for centuries and is closely tied to its temples. Wat Pho in Bangkok is well known as a place where the technique has long been taught. The tradition follows lines along the body, worked with the palms and thumbs in a steady rhythm, with the stretches flowing from one to the next.
The stretches you may feel
Every stretch is gentle, held while you breathe out, and can be skipped.
- Knee to chest, one leg at a time, to open the hips and lower back.
- A straight-leg lift that gently lengthens the back of the leg.
- A slow twist, with your knee guided across your body while your shoulder stays down.
- Arms drawn overhead or behind to open the chest and shoulders.
- Palm pressure walking up the legs and along both sides of the spine between stretches.
Your therapist and your range
RHEA therapists are trained and vetted. In a Thai session they start with small movements to see how far you comfortably go, then work within that range. Being stiff is not a problem: the session is shaped around you, not around a set of poses you have to reach.
After a Thai massage
People often say they feel taller and looser, and sometimes pleasantly tired. Drink water and move gently for the rest of the day: a short walk, some easy stretching. Save a heavy workout for tomorrow.
How often to book Thai
Thai massage pairs well with yoga and pilates, and many people book every two to four weeks as a stretching session they cannot do on their own. It also fits the stiff weeks: after long desk days, a run of flights or a long drive across the Emirates.
