Neighbourhood: Thong Lor & Ekamai
Known as Bangkok’s hippest neighbourhood, Thong Lor and Ekamai is where the city's well-dressed and well-heeled spend their nights sipping cocktails in hidden speakeasies and posh restaurants. Live it up in one of Thong Lor's extravagant clubs and be prepared to brush shoulders with a Thai celebrity or two. While great for a night out, the area is nothing short of interesting during the daytime, either. Expect a mix of savvy coffee shops, pop-up bars and loads of vintage stores, brought to you by hip locals with eyes for design.

I decided to go to a new massage parlor near my hotel which costs 300baht for an hour and it was a disappointment.
I made plans the very next day for Asia Herb Association which costs twice as much, 600baht for an hour of Thai massage but it never disappoints.
The quality of the masseuse is much better, I won’t waste my time or baht elsewhere again.

宿泊ホテルから近いスクンビット24店で予約をとり行ってきました。タブレットでの日本語入力でスムーズにメニューを選びました。おばちゃんにやってもらいました。時間がなく60分のオイルマッサージだったのでくがすごく上手かったです。友人と2人で一緒に個室でやってもらいました。マッサージ後にシャワーを浴びロビーで施術前に頼んでいたティーをいただきました。その後チップで200パーツずつ渡しました。
もちろん施術士はいろいろかと思いますがそれも含めて全てはしっかりしている方だと思います。
またバンコクに来た時にはお願いしようかと思います。
I made a reservation for 2 persons 2 days before visiting. I chose Sukhumvit 24 branch nearest my hotel. We didn’t have so much time so we had 60 min oil massages in the private room. The female massagers were so skilled we were really satisfied with what they did. We had teas after and gave them 200 B each as tips.
I believe that I’ll choose AHA when I’m back.

One of my favourite massage places. Went there before covid and re-visited my recent trip. Make an appointment online to avoid the hassle. Took the traditional Thai massage package of 2 hours which is about 1100 or 1200 baht. Rooms are very clean. Massage are relaxing. Never fail to fall asleep. Value for money.

As other people have written, it's better not to go. You will regret it. If you're going to go here, I think it's better to go to a local massage parlor for 500 THB per hour. A Thai traditional massage without any heart is just painful. I almost got burned by the herbal ball, which I was looking forward to. By the way, this was the second time I've ever been burned in Thailand. I've never been burned in Japan. I think that you have to be careful when handling the herbal ball, which uses boiling water, but I couldn't feel that at all and it was hell because it was pressed against my skin while still hot. It was the first time I received a herbal ball while feeling so scared. As a person who is studying herbal balls, I was simply filled with disappointment at the local therapist who treated me without knowing the basics. There was no treatment that was conscious of Sen at all. I used to look forward to using it every time I went to Thailand, but after this experience, I don't think I'll go again. For some reason, the level has really dropped. I think you can't expect much just because it's the real thing. If that's the case, I think it would be much better for your money, time, and body to receive the best herbal ball treatment in Japan, which is full of love and care. The worst part was the temperature inside the room. It was too cold. At the end, when I was getting naked, I asked them to turn down the air conditioning because it was cold, but it was still cold and I caught a cold, and the next day (my last day) I was sick from the morning and lay in bed all day. I returned to Japan and now, as I write this in Japan, I'm filled with regret. After the coronavirus pandemic. This is my first time in Thailand in five years. Overall, I think that everyone I met used to be more polite in their service and treatment. But now it's become less than average locals. I've been to this store countless times, so it's really disappointing. I wish they would stop just laughing when I say it hurts or it's cold. I want them to face the customers more properly. For the customers, the service, and the treatment. Japanese owners, are you reading this? I strongly felt that the therapists needed to be re-educated.

1 hour oil body massage at this branch in Sukhumvit 4 district costs 1150 baht. The employees are very professional and do justice to the massage. The business looks very clean and hygienic. This is an award-winning chain. It is more expensive than others, but you pay the difference for the real massage and cleaning.

This was our first visit to Asia Herb Association Massage Facility.They have multiple locations and we used the one located on Soi 4 off Shukmvit.
Very professional facility and service.
They offer both Package as well as Ala Carte service.
I went for their highly recommended : 100% Pure Blend Oil Body Massage
with Fresh Herbal Ball for Body for 120 minutes. The massage was very relaxing and the masseur was very professional and she was trained very well. They claim that the Herbal balls are made from herbs from their organic farms.

I walked out of Asia Herb with more pain than I first went in. The masseuse is not interested in giving you a massage and was just touching random areas, doing it just to waste time. The herball ball boiling process took too long that it seemed like she just want to kill time and not giving you a massage. They don't know anything about massage and do not respect your body. When they drape the sheet over your body, they just throw it like they don't care. These people are not trained in anyway and is a danger to anybody who walks in.
Now I have a sharp pain in the back from the strong and uneducated massage. I will have to go see professional for some diagnostics as this massage may have caused injury to my back.
Beware everyone and dont step foot in this establishment.

Thai massage is a beautiful form of bodywork therapy that, done right, is supposed to leave you feeling relaxed, with body loosened and mind calm. Asia Herb Association is a well established brand, but yesterday I was treated to the worst massage experience at this branch. I subsequently read a similar poor review dated in May 2017, and wonder if the reviewer and I had the same masseur! #407 was surly and burly in stature. There was no attention to client or the body being worked on, I felt like a piece of meat on that mat. The masseur exercised brute strength and relied on her body weight to go through the massage motions; when I indicated my preference for firm/deep strokes upon registration, I was not expecting it to translate to rough handling. It felt like an elephant was upon me. There was no finesse, no attention to particular knots of tension in the body, she just did her motions regardless it had no singular effect of relaxation. I should have left early, like the other reviewer did - and I also agree with same reviewer that the front desk was unconcerned with an unhappy customer and did not seem to care. In my years of travel to and massage in Bangkok, this is the single worst experience - doubly disappointed because I had so looked forward to it. If you head down to this branch, request for an experienced masseur and watch out for no.407. My 2 friends who had oil body massage with herb ball treatment at the same time enjoyed their massages here. The 2 star is for the cleanliness and ambience of the place.

My family and I have lived just off Sukhumvit 4 for a few years now and we're excited to see an Asian Herb Assoc open on the street. Getting just a "normal" massage along Nana can be a challenge. So signed up a membership.
On the plus side, very clean, great ambiance, and good quality oils used......but every time I have had a massage there has been barely acceptable to terrible.
I just had to accept that I had to travel elsewhere for a decent massage, but every few months have tried to see if they have upped their game.
To day was the last straw. The lady was obviously not trained in massage, so I stopped the massage early, and I have come out feeling worse than when I went in!
The reception staff didn't seemed too concerned as to why I was leaving early.
With so many great massage options in Bangkok it seems a shame to waste your time on this one.

Decided to head here for a traditional Thai massage on the last day of my trip and I had an amazing time there.
The service was prompt and professional and the massage was excellent. I would visit again if I need a massage in the future.

Can I make a reservation?
Is business hours until what time?
Written 6 November 2016
A store is crowded in the afternoon of Sunday, so I have made a reservation 2 weeks before.
The business hours are done from 9:00am to 2:00am.
It's crowded after the evening, so a store will recommend you reservation.
