I had a great experience. I don't get massages often, but I had been traveling and needed a massage to get the kinks out of my back. Thai Senses was just down the street from my hotel so it was very convenient. I was able to book a massage online through their website. I don't know all the various styles of massage, but the descriptions on the website steered me to a Thai-Yoga combo massage. Booking was easy, but right after they called and asked if I could move up a half hour earlier to accommodate their schedule. Wasn't a problem for me so I agreed. The spa is in a little high-rise building sandwiched between taller ones. I walked right past it, but then I saw the address numbers and walked back, counting down, and there it was. Inside was a little hallway with a security guard in front of the elevator (made me think of the Men In Black movie!). He was friendly, asked if I had an appointment, and then made me sign an In/Out list with my name and where I was going. Not a problem, I understand the need for security. When I got up to the spa, they were already expecting me. The staff were professional and courteous. I left my shoes at the door and was shown into a room right away. The room was warm with quiet music playing. It was clean and smelled nice. The therapist did a wonderful job with my massage. Ask for Mona - she was fantastic! It was over all too soon - I got an hour, but I should have scheduled a longer one. I can't speak to how their prices compare with other spas, but I was very satisfied with what I paid for the massage I got. They hit me up for the gratuity on my way out the door. I rode the elevator back down, signed out of the guard's log book, and I was back out on the street. A very positive experience overall. I was just passing through so I may never return, but if I am ever in NYC again I would not hesitate to go back. read more

I normally don't leave reviews, but this place absolutely earned one. I asked for a deep tissue massage and somehow ended up paying for someone to spread oil on me like I was a rotisserie chicken. Zero pressure. NONE. I've had firmer handshakes. If I wanted oil gently rubbed all over my body, I could've stayed home and done it myself for free. A real massage should leave you feeling refreshed, loose, maybe even a little dizzy when you stand up. Instead, I got up feeling exactly the same, except irritated and robbed. Calling this "deep tissue" is laughable. It was nothing but soft, pointless rubbing the entire time. So if you enjoy actual pressure, strong hands, or getting your money's worth do not come here. This place is for people who think a massage is just lotion and vibes. Total waste of time and money. Avoid. read more

Best massage ever! I feel like a new person after visiting. If you pay cash you will get a slight discount but their prices are super reasonable. Highly recommend! read more

Honestly the worst massage I've ever had. Literally painful and not in a good way like a "deep tissue massage painful" I don't know where the good reviews came from but maybe I got unlucky with the therapist. Unfortunately don't remember her name but I will not come back read more

Sadly not what I paid for: $140 plus $20 tip! My massage was not a Thai Massage it was more of a bad Chinese/Swedish massage...I ordered a Thai Massage and have had great Therapeutic Yoga like acupressure Thai massage from actual Thai massage therapists elsewhere. This was not anything like that. In fact when she started with my feet I was very skeptical and then she used elbows and knees on my back? I asked her if she knew what Thai massage was and she said a massage with no oil and cover over body....i told her I needed more stretching and to use acupressure. She tried a few stretches but only for a few seconds and didn't use acupressure. She don't have me sit-up and get in any yoga type poses. I've had about a hundred massages and this was a 5 out of 10 I felt bad as I know she is trying her best and needs to make a living so I still tipped her $20 but honestly this was maybe a $40 massage plus $20 tip not $160! Just a waste of time.....I also paid before the massage...which I've never done? P.S. I was told it would be $130 for a $10 cash discount...they didn't give me my $10 change. read more

On a recent trip to New York City, we found Thai Senses Spa via Yelp and took a leap of faith and we were rewarded with a great massage. The reviews were all accurate. Unlike many Thai massage places in California, Thai Senses Spa was located in a high rise building, therefore a little unusual upon initial review, but once we got inside it matched up to all previous reviewers reviews of this spa. The space was limited and minimalist with only two rooms available. We had to put down a deposit for our reservation, which was odd but I assumed normal because of their space limitations. My partner and I were both in the same room and both our therapists were very proficient in their technique, which was a combination of Thai and Swedish. Overall, I knocked one star off because of the cost, but otherwise wouldn't hesitate to visit again on our next trip to the city. read more

We had an amazing experience getting messages on our tired New York body and feet. Felt amazing after walking all over the city for three days! Highly recommend! read more

Seriously, the most amazing massage I've ever had! The owner and the staff there are so friendly and welcoming too! Highly recommend!

I arranged for a surprise massage for my girlfriend. Pim only takes Venmo or Cash (she does not take credit cards which is illegal) and operates out of an apartment building, not an actual studio. I paid for the massage via Venmo, my girlfriend said that she had a very pleasant experience. She said the ambience was nice, but she was very surprised and felt uncomfortable at the end. As she was leaving, Pim stood between her and the door and said "your boyfriend didn't tip me." What an extremely unprofessional thing to do. I did tip her ($27%), but the fact that she told this to a customer and blocked her exit from a private apartment is very threatening. Especially since this was a surprise gift for my girlfriend. Luckily Venmo was down, so my girlfriend was unable to give her additional money. read more

Thai Senses Spa - Tip - Massage Therapy Near Me - New York, New York

Hard to find but totally worth the search haha Small quiet place so the ambience was great The massages were out of this world. Got a couples massage and my wife and I were incredibly impressed. It's not cheap tho... but totally worth it!! read more

Pim was nice and the lady who was massaged me was also nice. But I specifically asked them to focus on my back and neck and like 25% of the time was doing that and the majority was massaging my legs and arms which weren't an issue and also was not why I visited this place on my limited time during a work trip. Won't be back but I'm sure they are good if you can get the message across on what to focus on better. read more

This place is great! After a long flight I found this hidden gem and I wasn't disappointed. The massage was great. They are professional and welcoming. I definitely would come back. read more

One of the first few massages I got after business reopening, and this is the BEST one I ever had! I was able to book a 30 min massage focusing on back and neck with Pim on the same day, and extended it to 45 min cause it felt really relaxing and vitalizing. The location is very convenient, right next to the blue subway line or a few steps from Times Square. Right after you walk into Thai Senses studio, you experience serene ambiance with spa music, candles everywhere and beautiful lighting. I didn't make any photos (the attached one is from the website) but it's exactly how it looks. The place is crystal clean. Pim is super professional and friendly. Would definitely come back soon:) Highly recommend! read more

I love a Thai massage where they really get in and knead and that's exactly what I got. Pim is tiny but powerful! Haha, my shoulders were super tight and she did an astounding job of getting in there with her hands and elbows. She stretched me throughly too and I literally left standing taller and straighter and feeling so much lighter. Definitely will be back! read more

Thai senses is the best! I'm at a desk 60-80 hours a week and despite having a good chair my back gets completely messed up weekly. I have been to Thai Senses a few times and am planning to go every 1-1.5 weeks now as part of taking better care of myself giving my work situation. If your goal is to actually get rid of knots and take care of your body skip the high end spas attempts at deep tissue and go here. You won't regret the massage and sports stretching combo to get rid of daily pain. It will be my first time checking out the new location today! The old apartment location was very nice, doorman building and beautifully decorated! Bad reviews seem to be from people who have no etiquette about tipping/somehow think it's okay to not tip. Everyone who works here is extremely kind and courteous. read more

I had such an amazing massage here. I can't believe how incredible I feel even days after my appointment. If you are looking for a great massage I highly recommend coming here. I will be back very sooner read more

I tried Thai Senses after a long trip that left my body pretty crumpled and tight. My East/West Combo massage was outstanding and my talented therapist, Rose, knew exactly how to get the kinks out. I left feeling lighter and "knot-free". I will definitely be returning! read more

I was a little apprehensive about the location but the doorman inside made me feel better. The place is small but cozy and decorated nicely. The massage was very good- she really knew her business. She got rid of all my stress points and stretched and pulled with just the right amount of strength and pressure. I would go again! read more

I hadn't experienced Thai massage before and as I have a few health issues (including anxiety which makes things like this a bit difficult) I was a little nervous. A heads up for my Anxiety experiencing fam out there, this studio is within a building, so you do need to go into a somewhat non-descript entrance hallway & sign in at the desk. The person working on this desk was very friendly & personable however, and I could see sign ins before mine for Thai Massage so that was comforting. You then go into an elevator to the floor. Get out and make a left, and the studio is there, very easy to find. The entrance is lovely, cosy and relaxing, and the person who greeted me was very polite and hospitable. I filled out my form where you can specify any ailments as well as pressure preference, and was offered water. There is also a bathroom there if you need it. I was given ample time once in the room to get changed and put my things neatly away and get up onto the bed, so no need to worry about that. I was then treated by Rose, who was so wonderful. She introduced herself and asked for pressure preferences, which she did a few more points throughout the massage, so again there's opportunity to speak up if you couldn't/didn't the first time. The massage itself was near perfect, a mixture for me of relaxing but feeling like it's doing good, a little tiny discomfort in places that are tender before the sweet release of a wonderfully skilled individual. By the end I truly felt like all areas of my body had been looked after and renewed, which is an incredibly rare feeling for me. I had pre-paid but tipped after (which you can do with cash or card/apple pay) 20%. Obviously this is up to you, but I felt happy to do so (along with 20% feeling fair for what I have experienced, it also is a small price to pay for my not to leave immediately feeling anxious!). I didn't feel rushed after my massage either which was lovely. When I came out everyone continued to be courteous and polite. All in all it was a 5/5 for me, and very easy to navigate despite my anxiety. The only thing I would add is if you have long hair bring a hair tie. I had booked this last minute so didn't think about it & it felt as though they used a rubber/elastic band to tie up my hair. Not painful as they were gentle, I just have terribly damaged hair that breaks easily so I know it will have done a little damage (but totally on me and not them, just good to know for other's in the same situation). read more

The team here have strong magical hands. They were really able to work my stiff and painful lower back and shoulders.

I am very particular about my massages and never seem to get anyone who can apply enough pressure. Until now. This place was AMAZING. Pinky was my therapist and did an outstanding job. I felt (and still feel) so much of my tension gone. She listened to where I wanted a bit extra and where I did not. Perfection. My wife used Rose and said she was equally as good. I wouldn't go anywhere else in NYC. Rates are great! read more

4 stars for the massage - the therapist was excellent. Really nice lady too. The entrance feels strange as it's in someone's apartment in a mid range building. As a tourist alone it was a little disconcerting on arrival. Having said that I'd go again as she did a great job on my massage read more

Absolute favorite massage place in the city. I've been 3 times and I don't go anywhere else. The price is on the higher side, but worth it. I've done the couple massage and solo and all were great experiences. Prim is great at running the business, everything is kept very clean. You can communicate what your target areas are, and the masseuses listen. Definitely recommend you come here. read more

Hi Do you come to homes for massages ? I have a table and on park ave between 62 61 street ?

Stopped after walking miles around Manhattan...doesn't look like much but terrific massage...Mona was nice young lady from Thailand...did a terrific massage...recommend highly read more

Pim is incredible. I got the 90 min Thai/deep tissue combo. It was my first Thai massage and her kindness completely put me at ease. She is strong, and continued to check in with pressure level. I hold stress in neck and shoulders, and she spent extra time going over knots that I didn't even know where there. Definitely going back!! She mentioned how nice it is to have a female client. Even with language stating Non-sexual Service, a lot of men still ask for it. It kills me that she has to deal with this or even wonder about safety at workplace trying to make a living. Please just don't. You're really just embarrassing yourself getting kicked out by the doorman. read more

The staff very professional and nice! i came here for facial service. Pim made me feel good. i would definitely recommend this place to my friends. read more

The spa is small but the quality of the massages is perfect. I have super tight shoulders and requested a head, neck, shoulder massage. The masseuse did an excellent job. Looking forward to my next visit. read more

I am visiting from another state and was ill prepared for the amount of walking required in NYC. I had a few hours to spare today and messaged the owner at Thai Senses Bodywork. I heard back within 10 minutes and scheduled a 60 minute Thai combination massage. Boy was I happy that I did! My masseuse was the most knowledgeable and experienced masseuse I ever had! As time was ending, she asked if I wanted to extend my massage to a 90 minute and I did. I felt the pain disappearing. I told her my feet, legs, back and neck were hurting and I can tell you, I am pain free! She works your muscles and stretches you in ways to help you relax! I'm not from around here but would make my way back to this area for a massage. Highly recommend! If I lived in the area, I would be a regular. $110 for an hour and $160 for 90 minutes + tip. It's well worth it! read more

I had the very best massage I've ever had in my life with Pim. She is kind, careful and strong. Igor 2 hour Thai massage. Love it

So happy I extended my stay in NYC for a "relaxation day" because THIS deep tissue/thai massage with Pim was everything I could've hoped for and more. Definitely the best thai massage I've experienced. And I have had plenty between the US and Thailand. Pim worked on the problem areas I mentioned to her before the massage and went to town with her tiger balm!! Thank you for helping me end my trip on a great note! read more
