All Things Spa

What does one usually expect for a perfect holiday retreat? Some dream of an extreme adventure in an exotic unknown land and even casting themselves away from the daily city bustles. But if having just a weekend to spend, where should you go? How about a 2-hour massage and spa?

As a popular holiday destination, a number of accommodations and spas have been mushrooming all over the city of Chiang Mai, providing the visitors with absolute comfort and relaxation. And among them, Narun Spa is an alternative massage venue that’s worth a visit.

Set in the natural Lanna ambience in Sankampaeng, just a few minutes out of the city, Narun Spa divides its services into two major categories; massage for relaxation and massage for health. To pamper its customers, a variety of massages is available, from the body, foot and hand spas to herbal oil massage, mineral-water bathing, and 10-step facial massage with Thai herbs.

In terms of the massage for health, various treatments with medical benefits are offered including the Migraine Counteract that relieves muscular strain as well as stimulates blood circulation - with massage at the specific areas such as arms, neck and shoulder, foot massage and acupressure, for example.

An additional positive aspect of Tao Garden is that all the items of cuisine on offer are from ingredients that have been organically grown.

For further information, contact Narun Spa 1/1 Moo 4, Baan Sankongkao, T. Saimoon, A. Sankampaeng, Chiang Mai. Tel. 053-331596-7 and 084-6160156.
