I chose to have the Coffee & Chocolate Detox Body Treatment, which was interesting to say the least. A top to toe exfoliation followed by being smothered in the coffee & chocolate mix before being left to relax for 10 minutes. Sadly it was not a particularly relaxing time due to the noise coming from outside the room. After this a quick rinse in the "rainforest shower" (essentially just a large shower head in a regular sized shower in what may have been the staff toilet & changing area for all I know). It did not feel anywhere as near luxurious as what I had imagined from the online description. Once showered a layer of mosituriser was applied before I was commanded & positively pushed to sit up which symbolised a rather abrupt end to the treatment. On leaving the treatment room I was told that the glass of water & mint on the seating area was for myself. I thanked them for the treatment but this was barely acknowledged as I left the building. Overall it was pleasant enough but I wouldn't go back as there customer service was certainly lacking on this day.

Not only will you emerge completely stretched and relieved but you'll be planning the next one in your schedule. I know I am anyway! The thing to remember about Thai massage is that it involves lots of rhythmic movements which are meant to ease your tense muscles and stretching components to promote blood circulation and healing. If it begins to hurt, try and relax or tell the therapist to go light (or vice versa). If you tense up because of the pain, you will be in even more pain than when you started. I normally go for the 1 hour True Thai ($70) session. And as an avid traveller to Bangkok , True Thai is as close as you will get to the real deal in Melbourne.

EVER. I booked the 60 min combo massage (Thai/relax) and was lucky enough to have had Adale - she listened to my pain areas (I get migraines so I asked her to focus on my neck, head and shoulders) and she was sensitive in asking if I needed softer/harder pressure. This massage had a weekday promo offer for $59 and it was worth every dollar - even if it had been full price at ~$70. The Thai massage uses pressure and body twists. The relax massage softens the muscles with oil. It was just the perfect combo. I highly recommend going here! It seemed more like a locals place and was rather busy with appointments.

So good, I'd definitely go back for this. The onsen wasn't anything special, except that I live in the city without a bath, but I probably could've paid the same amount for a cheap hotel and had 20 hours in it. It was rather large, but tiled just like a spa at any basic hotels pool, was warm, but stunk like sweat so much I considered walking out early. Fun Fact - if you have a bath as well, they'll give you clothes to put on for your massage. Otherwise wear comfy clothes - shiatsu you keep them all on!

For starters we immediately slipped our feet into slippers that were provided and then welcomed with Green Tea while we waited for our bath to be ready. We had the private bath which included a dressing room equipped with toiletries and lockers, wash area, sauna and of course the large Japanese bath. The experience was so relaxing that we plan to come here at least once a month in the colder months. I highly recommend Onsen Ma just for the experience alone, or if you are like me and don't have a bath at home - this place is a must.
