Once I studied both Thai traditional massage and Foot massage which located in Wat Wo ra chan ya wad. It takes about 3 months and I paid only for the books becasue, it belongs to the Bangkok Official Government which is free course and there are many professor who taught us.

First week, they will teach you about the Foot Massage, so you must understand clearly about the lines because it will effect to the whole body. After that you will learn about Thai traditional massge which takes a couple months. You will recieved the certificate as well when finish course. It might be good in the future career to be a massagist.

It's quite great to learn how to secure your self and how to help others.regular_smileregular_smileregular_smile

Hi

I went to the Old Medicine School in Chiang Mai - good school. Also there is a great website doing thai massage trips which includes accommodation - B&B, massage school fees, lunches and a few trips. They meet you at the airport and drop you off again after 2 weeks - better than going on your own.
