Studying in Thailand

Hello everyone. I would like to have some recommendations on a school to study with in Thailand. So far my research has led me to the understanding that it is better to find a US school or teacher and go over with them instead of just traveling to a school in Thailand. If anyone has done this and could share their experience I would appreciate it.

Hi Charlene,

I have not only done this, but I have studied, practiced and taught Thai Massage both in the West and in Thailand for over 12 years now. I also have a very comprehensive Thai Massage website with lots of useful information at www.thaihealingmassage.com

Coincidentally just today I wrote an in depth blog post that perfectly addresses your post above. You can find it here:

And last but not least, you can download a free 6 part Thai Massage video course with lots of useful information here:

I hope that will help you. Since I live in Thailand, please feel free to contact me at any time for specific advice.
