Poor posture is a structural problem caused by muscle imbalances — some muscles are chronically shortened and tight while others are overstretched and weak. Hours at a laptop create forward head posture and rounded shoulders. Prolonged sitting shortens hip flexors and weakens the glutes. These patterns cause pain, fatigue, and a self-reinforcing cycle that stretching alone can't break.
Massage addresses the tight side of the equation by releasing the shortened muscles that pull the body out of alignment. Thai massage specifically targets the hip flexors, chest, and neck through assisted stretching. Shiatsu works on the cervical and thoracic spine. By releasing what's tight, your body naturally returns toward alignment.
Our therapists recommend these massage types for massage for poor posture correction

Why it helps: Thai massage specifically stretches the anterior chain — hip flexors, chest, and neck — the muscles most shortened by desk posture. The combination of assisted stretching and compression decompresses the spine and resets posture patterns.

Everything you need to know before you book
When booking for a specific pain condition, mention the affected area and a brief description of the issue via WhatsApp when you book — for example, "lower back tension from travel" or "left shoulder knot, been there a week." This lets us match the right therapist and ensures they arrive prepared to focus on the right areas. Same-day bookings are available with 2–3 hours notice. For chronic or recurring conditions, a 90-minute session gives the therapist enough time to do thorough work rather than a surface treatment.
Avoid booking during an acute pain episode — massage is most effective in the sub-acute phase, when the area is sore but not in sharp spasm. A 24–48 hour gap after a significant flare-up is ideal. The best time of day depends on your routine: evening sessions give the muscles a chance to relax overnight; morning sessions are useful when pain is worst in the morning and you want to start the day with more mobility. For recurring conditions, consistency matters more than session length — regular 60-minute sessions outperform occasional 120-minute ones.
The therapist arrives with a full professional setup and will ask briefly about the affected area before starting. This takes 2–3 minutes and directly shapes the session. Communicate freely during the massage — more pressure, less pressure, or a different area — good therapists adjust in real time. After a targeted session on a problem area, some soreness in the 12–24 hours following is normal and expected; this indicates the tissue was worked properly. Payment is cash after the session; no deposit required.
