My recent stay in Chiang Mai has been a memorable one. I've been visiting the city for the past eleven winters, and this time was no exception. I spent months in the land of Thailand, and I'm currently at the airport, waiting for my flight back to Los Angeles. I found my way traveling from Bangkok to Chiang Mai and I loved every moment of this adventure. The Chiang Mai Girls I met were truly a class apart.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where Is Pan Wadee Massage in Chiang Mai?
Pan Wadee Massage is on Kamphaengdin Road, just south of Two Sister's Pizza. I found the staff friendly and willing to accommodate various requests, including full service. Prices change, so ask what is included before you go in. Puththaraska Massage, another shop I like, is on the same road, north of and near the pizza place.
Where Is Thara Song Massage in Chiang Mai?
Thara Song is on Kamhaengdin Road, a short distance from Tha Phae Road. It is the third of three neighboring establishments when you approach from Tha Phae Road. The masseuse I visit there offers a satisfactory massage and more, but you must bring your own protection, so pack accordingly.
Do I Need to Bring My Own Protection at Chiang Mai Massage Shops?
At Thara Song on Kamhaengdin Road, yes, you must bring your own protection. I'd carry it everywhere, since not every shop provides it. This isn't medical advice, so if you have any worries after a visit, see a clinic. Shops differ in what they offer, so ask the girl before you pay.
Which Massage Shops in Chiang Mai Won't Allow Extras?
Heart Massage, near Lek's Angel Massage, is a place where the owner, Mukda, is an experienced and good masseuse, but if you request extras with her staff she won't allow it, only standard massage. Lucky Massage, across the street from Blue Sky, also drew a line at full service, likely due to its policies.
Where Is Lucky Massage in Chiang Mai?
Lucky Massage is across the street from Blue Sky Massage. It's a weird name, I know, but one masseuse there gave me a satisfying massage, though she declined to offer full service, likely due to the shop's policies. I'd go there for the massage and treat anything extra as a bonus.
Is ThaiFriendly Good for Meeting Girls in Chiang Mai?
Results on ThaiFriendly can be inconsistent, but I had a few pleasant encounters the first time I tried it. Some effort in communicating pays off. I find more enjoyment at massage parlors where the interaction with the staff is the focus, not a predetermined agenda, so I'd use ThaiFriendly alongside them.
Which Chiang Mai Clubs Did I Not Visit on My Last Trip?
I didn't get the chance to visit Queen Club, Icha Icha, Absolute Paradise, Dolphin or Darin Club on my last trip, so I can't give you a fresh review of them. They are popular establishments, so I'd check recent reviews and the current prices before you go, and I'd set a budget.
Is JA Massage in Chiang Mai Worth Visiting?
Not now. The owner sold it to the person working there, and the ladies at JA Massage are now average-looking, so I wouldn't consider going. I still enjoy seeing the former owner, who is like an old friend. Shops change hands often in Chiang Mai, so check recent reviews first.
What Kind of Chiang Mai Massage Shop Do I Prefer?
I prefer massage parlors where the interaction with the staff is the focus, rather than a routine task with a predetermined agenda. I've often said the success of a session depends on chemistry between the two people, and I've had that at a few shops I've known for years. Try a few and see where you click.
