What is a Soapy Massage Bangkok? Soapy massage is a uniquely Thai sensual spa experience where a nude therapist uses soap lather and full body contact to wash and massage the client. It typically takes place in a special waterproof room with a foam-filled mattress, a bathtub, and often a mirror-lined wall.

Unlike regular spa treatments, soapy massage is designed for pleasure and relaxation, with the therapist gliding over your body in a rhythmic, intimate way. It’s often described as body-to-body cleansing, done using soft foam and warm water.

• Dozens of well-established, luxurious massage parlours
