Thai New York Spa & Salon: Thai NY Signature Massage Featured in Time Out New York
Best Spas 2013

The whiz of blow-dryers and chatty technicians up front gave me
pause about how serene my treatment would be, but the spa area of this
hybrid joint turned out to be plenty quiet. While filling out the
requisite paperwork, I sipped a soothing cup of ginger-lemon tea and
wiped my hands with a warm towel. Kan Prasertsri, who owns the spa’s two
outposts with her sister Pat, took me into a private room in the back
for my Thai massage, which incorporates more appendage-stretching than
is found in other techniques. During the hour, Kan went to work with
scent-free Bon Vital organic oils, kneading my whole body carefully and
paying extra attention to my problem areas (shoulders and lower back).
She checked in often to make sure the pressure was okay and that I was
comfortable, but not so frequently that it disrupted my reverie. My arms
and legs were often lightly twisted into almost yogalike poses,
loosening and relaxing muscles I’d clearly never paid attention to. When
I returned to the front of the salon, I was greeted by a towel and
another tray of tea, extending my Zen state for a few more moments.
60min regularly $79. Mention TONY when booking or at time of appointment
for 15% off all massage and facial treatments through Feb 7.
