Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

Massages in Chiang Mai are inexpensive, and this studio isn't among the cheapest. That's precisely the point. Reviewers repeatedly say the same thing, just phrased differently. Yes, it costs more than the small shops around the corner, and yes, it's worth it. You're paying for the entire experience, not just the hour on the mat. You're greeted with lemongrass tea, you can choose an oil before the massage begins, and afterward, you're offered hot tea and a small snack to help you relax.

The rooms are decorated in a deep indigo blue, soft music plays, and they are, by all accounts, spotlessly clean. The Thai deep tissue massage is particularly popular, but the combination massage for the back, head, and shoulders also has its devotees. If you've spent the day exploring the old town and your calves are aching, this is the place for you. Walk-ins are welcome, even for small groups, so you don't need to plan ahead.
