Muanjaijai Massage Chiang Mai

Greetings from Tha Sala. Muanjaijai Massage suits travellers who want a calm, low-key shop away from the Night Bazaar and Nimman crowds, with an early start and a sensible 22:00 close. Google reviewers consistently praise attentive, skilled therapists and a quiet, relaxing atmosphere, and the 4.7 rating from 43 reviews has almost no complaints in the recent set. Two mention parking, handy if you ride a scooter. Skip it if you want a price list before you go, as no rate card is published, or a late-night option, since it closes at 22:00. Note the name: it moved here from Sridonchai and is not the Muanjai Thai massage shop in the Old City.

Muanjaijai Massage is listed as a happy ending massage shop, with soapy massage as a second category, and its listing shows oil massage, Thai massage and showers. An adult directory review reports that extra services are offered during the oil massage, and that Karsai massage, a traditional therapeutic technique, is available. The same source says the shop relocated in 2024 from Sridonchai, near the moat, to its current spot in Tha Sala. It is not to be confused with a regular Thai massage shop called Muanjai in the Old Town.

Google reviewers describe a quiet, relaxing place. One says you can choose your therapist and the pressure you prefer, and another calls it a hole-in-the-wall spot and suggests asking about promotions, which they say usually run. No languages or payment methods are published.

For other shops on this side of the river, see the Tha Sala district page.

No rate card is published, so there are no prices to quote. Ask at the counter for the menu, confirm the length and the total for anything you add, and ask whether a promotion is running, as one reviewer suggests.

No booking channel is listed: no website, phone or LINE. Ask in person at the shop. Payment methods are not published, so bring cash. To compare prices with shops that do publish them, see the happy ending massage guide for Chiang Mai.

The address is 80 Soi 8 Kor, Tha Sala, Mueang Chiang Mai, 50000. Tha Sala is east of the Ping River. Chiang Mai has no metro, so take a Grab, a red songthaew or a tuk-tuk, or ride a scooter: two reviewers mention parking at the shop.

One reviewer describes the shop as being down an alley and recommends taking a taxi after dark, because of a group of stray dogs at the end of the alley. It is open every day from 09:30 until 22:00, so it suits a morning or afternoon visit as well as the early evening. The Chiang Mai city guide covers the wider map.

It suits travellers staying east of the river, people with a scooter, and anyone who prefers a quiet, unhurried shop to the busy strips. It also suits those who want a proper oil or Thai massage first; reviewers say it relieved aches after a day of hiking or sightseeing. It suits less well night owls or anyone who wants prices in advance. For later and more central options, see the Night Bazaar guide and the Nimman guide.

Muanjaijai Massage holds a 4.7 Google rating from 43 reviews, and the recent reviews are almost all five stars.

The most common theme is the massage itself. Reviewers often describe the therapists as attentive, lovely and skilled, and several say the massage relieved their aches and left them relaxed, including one after a day of hiking in the hills around Chiang Mai. The atmosphere comes up too: reviewers call it quiet, pleasant and relaxing, a good way to unwind after sightseeing.

Practical points repeat. Two reviewers mention parking at the shop. One likes being able to choose the therapist and the pressure, and another suggests asking about promotions.

The nearest thing to a complaint is about the approach rather than the shop: one reviewer recommends a taxi after dark because of stray dogs at the end of the alley. One review appears to be about food rather than massage, so read the score as a broad guide. Wish you were here?
