BodhiSense
I miss Bangkok!! I really do. It's been more than a year since my monthly sojourns to the asian City of Angels and I can't believe I've survived (well, barely!) so long.
One of the things I miss most is my regular visits to the the Thai massage place near the apartment I used to stay in. My almost (when I wasn't out exploring new culinary delights) daily after-work routine was to take the BTS (skytrain) from the office back to Silom station, stop by the Thai salad place to buy dinner, have dinner back at the apartment, watch some TV and relax, have a shower and then go to Body Tune (which was my favourite massage place on Silom Road) for a massage. 2 hours later, I would find my way back to the apartment in a nice relaxed stage and fall asleep.
The good news is, I can almost re-create this routine here in KL (ok, minus the skytrain - I have my own wheels, and minus the yam (salad) - unfortunately, haven't found a place in KL which serves all the various types of Thai salads). The answer is BodhiSense.
BodhiSense, a massage therapy place which specialises in the Thai massage with therapists from Thailand, is located in Plaza Damas in Sri Hartamas, not too far away from my office. They offer:
1) Traditional Thai Body Massage
45 minutes - RM40 / 90 minutes - RM70
2) Traditional Thai Foot Massage
60 minutes - RM45
3) Aromatheraphy Massage
45 minutes - RM55 / 90 minutes RM90
They're open daily from 10am to 10pm which is great because it means you can go after a long hard day at work.
Reservations are essential especially on weekends because they're normally booked solid!!
