Chiang Mai, Thailand, October 24, 2026 / TRAVELINDEX / Forget the all-you-can-eat buffet. The Meliá Chiang Mai presents a whole new way of indulging, inviting spa guests to enjoy a selection of massages and treatments as part of the new Wellness Spa Buffet at the YHI Spa.

The wellness offer allows guests to individually combine treatments from a selection of seven popular therapies to create their own 120-minute spa experience. The price is THB 2,600 net per person, and the offer is available from 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM until December 31, 2026.

Traditional Thai massage, aromatherapy massage, and deep tissue massage (each 60 or 90 minutes) are on the spa menu, as are foot massages (30 or 60 minutes). For that extra touch, a body scrub, a herbal compress, and an aloe vera body wrap (each 30 minutes) complete the two-hour pampering program.

Traditional Thai massage uses stretching and pressure point techniques to improve flexibility and release muscle tension. Aromatherapy massage combines hand pressure with a selection of essential oils for relaxation. For those seeking a more intensive treatment, deep tissue massage offers slow, firm strokes that reach deeper muscle layers, releasing persistent tension and promoting muscle recovery. Foot massage focuses on pressure points on the feet and lower legs to stimulate nerve endings and improve circulation.

The peeling removes dead skin cells, the herbal compress treatment soothes tired muscles, relieves pain and opens the skin pores, and the body wrap soothes and nourishes the skin.

In addition to the wellness buffet, the YHI Spa offers an extensive selection of massages, body treatments, facials, and spa rituals. These include an exclusive treatment that combines traditional Northern Thai Tok Sen techniques with Spanish massage, as well as a 360° Spa Signature Treatment featuring yoga, meditation, a herbal steam bath, aromatherapy massage, and healthy cuisine. Couples can indulge in a romantic milk bath with massage, men can enjoy a deep tissue massage and facial, and children aged six to twelve can participate in a specially designed therapy that includes playful yoga exercises and gentle coconut oil treatments.

The YHI Spa is located on the first floor of the Meliá Chiang Mai and offers seven private, underwater-themed treatment rooms for a truly relaxing experience. It also features a Thai herbal steam bath and a sauna.

Inspired by the goddess YHI, who is responsible for life and light and personified by the sun by the Karraur First Nations in Australia, the professional therapists at YHI Spa utilize ancient Asian healing wisdom combined with modern wellness techniques in a comprehensive range of body treatments, from massages and scrubs to wraps and facials, based on products from the Thai organic wellness brand HARNN.
