Had an amazing experience at Sabai De Ka massage school! Everyone who works here is so friendly and knowledgeable in their field. The school offers a great variety of classes. Patient teachers and it’s the perfect amount of time to study the techniques and I learned so much, will be returning for more courses in the future!

I did the three day thai massage course, followed by the one day oil massage course.

The teachers are very good, speaks very good English, has a very good sense of humour and clearly knows what they are doing.

Please note they do cram in some 150 moves for the three day thai massage course, (the 5 day one has 200 moves and seem to include the stomach as well). You can give a 2 - 3 hour thai massage after three days. The reality is, we went through the moves with great speed, and then we practised them once, occasionally twice. If you want to give professional thai massage, I would want and need more practise. If you are here to learn some fun moves, who cares?

You will be practising on each other though, and some of the moves get right up to your private parts. So if you are shy, don't go! The teachers all have a good sense of humour about this stuff though, which eases the tension. And of course, you get massaged every day!

They do not allow you to video or take photographs for obvious reasons. They give you a booklet with barely adequate black and white photographs, so make sure you take really detailed notes. You will fall into it easily though, a lot of the moves are quite similar and the teacher end up giving the moves some short hand names ("push and roll", "elephant walk" etc).

If you want to study properly, I would advise going to the Old Medicine Hospital where the traditional school is. They charge 5000 Bhatt for a minimum 5 day course, whereas Sabai De Ka charge 5000 Bhatt for a 3 day course. However the Old Medicine Hospital is a proper school, has a strict schedule on what course they are running that week, and their courses are minimum 5 days (go look on their website). Sabah De Ka is for tourist and so they cram in classes of your choosing whenever you like and for however long you like. I suggest asking them a couple of days earlier though if they have space, as they do get booked up with many one day courses in advance!

Finally they sell their own version of Tiger Balm on the cheap. Worth checking out!

We warmly recommend Sabai de Ka Massage School and will surely come back.

I have found the place on TA and gave it a try, assuming if its a school, they probably know how to give a good massage. And what a great choice! I went there twice, spend total 5 hours of massage and I have to say, no other place in Chiang Mai comes even close to their quality and professionalism. I had traditional thai massage, oil massage, head and foot and facial and all were excellent. Especially I have to recommend the thai massage, I was like a new person afterwards, my body felt deeply relaxed and stronger at the same time. Both masseuses were fantastic. The receptionist is very nice and speaks good english, so don't hesitate to give them a call. They have classes and sometimes you have to wait for a massage, so better ti call ahead and ask. Oh, and the prices are very reasonable - I paid twice more for a mediocre massage in Chiang Mai. I can't wait to get there again next time in CHM.

My girlfriend and I, both health care professionals,( Dr of Chiro and Botanical Medicine and Physio) took the cupping course a few months ago...loved it!
Professional guidance lots of laughter and a great addition to our toolbox. We had a great instructor only for the two of us and she was just awesome! Everyone working there was warm and welcoming and made us feel very comfortable. We highly recommend this lovely school!

Thank you for everything!

We booked a 3 hour course back shoulder neck massage. There were only 3 people in our course including us so our teacher demonstrated all of the techniques on us which was quite nice ;) but after working through a course book where you can take notes and that you can take home with you, we got to practice everything on each other while she corrected us. It was really nice and a special experience that I would definitely recommend at this particular place!

We were welcomed with tea in the lovely green courtyard. I had the package nr 2 for 1299 thb for 2.5 hours and my companion did the 3 hour massage course at the same time for 1100thb. I enjoyed my whole package and would highly recommend it. I can't remember the name of my masseuse, but she spoke good English and was really nice. She will remember me as laughed over the power outages during my massage! :) The course was also good, according to my companion and the teacher also had great English. Overall, a little pricey compared to a street massage but the best value for a proper place.

Wonderful and fun way to learn thai massage. The instructor and the people who work here are great and friendly. We did the 3 hour class and was totally worth it.

Signed up for the 1 day oil massage class and enjoyed everything about it! First you change into a sarong and top. Then you watch the massage being done by instructor on one of the classmates first. Next you partner up with another classmate (if you didn't come with another person) and then you both try the moves on each other. At first it's a bit uncomfortable as you don't know the other person but that goes away quickly (at least it did for me) as you all are there for the same reason. The owner makes sure to book classes with enough people to pair up so no one is left out.

They give you a booklet with pictures that you can take notes on. This was one of the more tedious things as it was difficult to write down everything while watching what the instructor was doing. If they could have helped pre fill descriptions that would have been great (such as describing basic hand movements and how many times to repeat, etc).

The course lasted 1.5 hours longer than expected but that's likely due to us not going as fast. It was a lot to absorb in 6.5 hours but definitely worth the time and cost in my opinion. I would recommend this school & course to anyone coming to Chiang Mai that has a desire to learn massage.
