Professional Thai & Deep Tissue Massages in Warsaw

Certified by the prestigious WatPo School in Bangkok. Restore your flexibility, energy, and deep relief from daily stress.

A Royal Legacy: Trained at Wat Pho, the Birthplace of All Thai Massage Arts

Historical Origins & Royal Roots: Wat Pho (also known as the Temple of the Reclining Buddha) is Bangkok's oldest and largest Buddhist temple. Originally established as the cradle of traditional healing, this ancient method of therapeutic bodywork was historically created and reserved exclusively for the Kings of Thailand to restore their vital energy and health. In the 19th century, King Rama III transformed the temple into Thailand’s first public university, having all traditional medical knowledge, Ruesri Dat Ton yoga postures, and energy line maps engraved on stone inscriptions across the temple walls.
- The Modern School: In 1955, the Wat Pho Thai Traditional Medical School was officially founded within the temple complex, becoming the first Thai massage school recognized by the Thai Ministry of Education.
- Global Excellence: Today, it is recognized worldwide as the supreme authority of Traditional Thai Massage (Nuad Bo Rarn) and reflexology.
- The Philosophy: Unlike Western massage, which focuses primarily on muscular relaxation, the Wat Pho method combines deep thumb and palm pressure, assisted yoga stretching, and spiritual energy balancing, passing down a millenary tradition rooted in holistic healing.

About Attila Echis

Originally from Italy, my journey into holistic well-being is driven by a lifelong passion for bodywork and the sacred art of human connection. Trained directly in Bangkok at the official Wat Pho School—the historic birthplace of Thai healing—I am a certified traditional practitioner and a master of Thai Assisted Yoga Stretching.
My practice bridges ancient Eastern wisdom with intuitive energy work, offering a profound holistic experience to align body, mind, and spirit. I have brought this rich lineage and expertise to Warsaw to cultivate deep physical restoration, energetic balance, and inner peace for the community.
While my core focus is currently on tailored, one-on-one therapeutic bodywork, this sanctuary is evolving. Soon, I will be opening space for group rituals, movement circles, and collective energy experiences designed to foster shared healing and conscious connection.

Before spreading across the world, every technique of Thai massage originated at the sacred Wat Pho temple in Bangkok. Established as Thailand’s first university and traditionally reserved for the Royal Court, Wat Pho is the historic mother school of all Thai healing arts. My official certifications honor this centuries-old legacy.

Thai Massage Safety Guidelines: When to Wait, When to Ask First, and When It’s Perfectly Safe

Thai massage is safe for most people, most of the time. There are a few situations where it is better to ask your masseuse depending on the massage modality you want — pregnancy, recent surgery, or active inflammation. There are other situations where you should ask your doctor first — certain heart or bone conditions, for example. And there are many situations people worry about unnecessarily — age, flexibility, or having never tried massage before. This guide gives you clear, honest information so you can decide with confidence. When in doubt, contact us before booking — we would rather answer questions than have you worry.
When is it better to wait before booking a Traditional Thai massage?
If you are pregnant, recovering from surgery, experiencing active inflammation or injury, or dealing with a sudden onset of pain or swelling, it is better to choose a Thai massage with oil or aroma. For Traditional Thai massage, it is better to wait until those situations have resolved, sice it involves deep pressure and stretching that can interfere with the body’s natural processes during these times.
- Pregnancy
Traditional Thai massage is not recommended during pregnancy. Some massage styles are adapted for pregnant clients, as our Thai massage with oil or aroma, but traditional Thai massage as we practice it is not one of them. Wait until after you have given birth and received clearance from your healthcare provider — usually around 6–8 weeks postpartum for uncomplicated births.
- Recent surgery or injury
If you have had surgery in the past 6–12 weeks, or if you are recovering from a significant injury (broken bone, torn ligament, major bruising), wait until you are fully healed and have clearance from whoever is overseeing your recovery. Thai massage puts load and movement through joints and tissues in ways that can interfere with healing if the timing is wrong.
- Active inflammation or swelling
If you have sudden, unexplained swelling, redness, heat, or pain in any part of your body — especially in a joint or limb — do not book a massage. These are signs that something is actively happening in your body that massage could make worse. See a healthcare professional first, understand what is going on, and then decide whether massage is appropriate.
- Fever or acute illness
If you have a fever, the flu, a heavy cold, or any acute infection, wait until you are fully recovered. Massage increases circulation and can make you feel worse when your body is already working hard to deal with an infection. It is also considerate to our masseuses and other clients — illness spreads easily in close-contact settings.
- When should you consult your doctor before booking?
If you have a heart condition, take blood thinners, have severe osteoporosis, have an autoimmune condition, or are undergoing cancer care, ask your doctor whether Thai massage is appropriate for you. These situations do not automatically rule out massage, but they require professional guidance to ensure safety.
- Heart conditions
If you have high blood pressure that is not well-controlled, a history of heart attack or stroke, or any other significant heart condition, check with your doctor before booking. Thai massage increases circulation and can temporarily affect blood pressure — this is usually fine, but professional guidance ensures there are no risks specific to your situation.
- Blood thinners or clotting concerns
If you take anticoagulant medication (blood thinners) or have a clotting disorder, speak with your doctor first. Deep pressure work can occasionally cause bruising, and people on blood thinners bruise more easily and severely than others. Your doctor can advise whether massage is safe and what level of pressure is appropriate.
- Severe osteoporosis or bone fragility
If you have been diagnosed with severe osteoporosis — especially if you have had fractures from minor impacts — consult your doctor before receiving Thai massage. The stretching and compression involved in the practice can put stress on bones that are fragile. Many people with mild to moderate osteoporosis receive Thai massage safely with adaptations, but professional guidance is essential for severe cases.
- Autoimmune conditions
If you have an autoimmune condition like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, or multiple sclerosis, check with your doctor. Thai massage may be perfectly appropriate, but timing matters — some people find massage helpful between flare-ups, while others find it aggravates their condition. Your doctor knows your specific situation and can guide you.
- Cancer care
If you are currently receiving cancer treatment or are in recovery, speak with your oncology team before booking. Massage can be beneficial during cancer care, but it must be adapted appropriately. Direct pressure over tumour sites, recent surgical areas, or radiation fields is typically avoided. Your healthcare team can provide specific guidance.
- What situations do people worry about unnecessarily?
Most people worry far more than necessary. Age is not a barrier. Lack of flexibility is not a problem. Having chronic tension, stiffness, or general discomfort is exactly what Thai massage addresses. Never having had a massage before is completely fine. If you can walk into the room and lie on a mat, Thai massage is almost certainly appropriate for you.
- Age
Thai massage is safe for people of all ages — from young adults to people in their 80s and beyond. Age alone is not a reason to avoid it. The masseuse adapts the session to your body as it is on that day, regardless of how old you are. We have worked with clients in their 70s who receive the full intensity of a traditional session, and clients in their 30s who need a gentler approach. It depends on the individual, not the number.
- Lack of flexibility
This is one of the most common unnecessary worries. Thai massage is designed for people who are not flexible. The masseuse moves your body — you produce no effort. If you cannot touch your toes, cannot do yoga, or have never stretched in your life, Thai massage is not only safe but often particularly effective because the contrast between before and after is so dramatic.
- Chronic stiffness or tension
Chronic tension, tight muscles, stiff joints, or general discomfort from sitting too much or moving too little — these are exactly the situations Thai massage addresses. They are not reasons to avoid it. If anything, they are the strongest indicators that you would benefit from it.
- Never having had a massage before
First-time massage recipients are welcome and common. Thai massage is an excellent first experience precisely because it is fully clothed, which many people find less intimidating than oil-based massage. Your masseuse will guide you through the entire session — there is nothing you need to know or do in advance.Being nervous or uncertain
Nervousness is normal and completely fine. If you are unsure whether Thai massage is right for you, or if you have specific concerns, contact us before booking. We would rather answer your questions and help you feel confident than have you worry unnecessarily or avoid something that could genuinely help you.

FAQ

Q1: Is Thai massage safe for older people?
Yes. Age alone is not a barrier. Thai massage is safe for people in their 60s, 70s, 80s, and beyond. The masseuse adapts the session to your body and your comfort level. Many older clients receive the full intensity of a traditional session; others need a gentler approach. It depends on the individual, not the age.
Q2: Can I get Thai massage if I am not flexible?
Absolutely. Thai massage is designed for people who are not flexible. The masseuse moves your body entirely — you produce no effort. Lack of flexibility is not a reason to avoid Thai massage; it is often the reason people benefit most from it.
Q3: Is Thai massage safe during pregnancy?
You can opt for a Thai massage with oil or aroma during pregnancy. Traditional Thai massage as practiced at Can Thai Massage Ibiza is not recommended during pregnancy. The deep abdominal work and hip-flexor stretching can interfere with the pregnancy. Wait until after you have given birth and received clearance from your healthcare provider.Q4: Can I get Thai massage if I have high blood pressure?
If your blood pressure is well-controlled with medication and regular monitoring, Thai massage is usually safe. If your blood pressure is high and not well-controlled, or if you have recently had changes to your medication, consult your doctor first. Thai massage increases circulation temporarily, which can affect blood pressure.Q5: Should I tell my masseuse about old injuries?
Yes. Always mention any past injuries, surgeries, or areas of sensitivity — even if they happened years ago. This allows the masseuse to adapt the session appropriately and avoid positions or pressure that could aggravate old issues. Honesty helps the masseuse give you the best possible session.Q6: Can I get Thai massage if I have chronic back pain?
Yes, in most cases. Chronic tension, stiffness, or general discomfort in the back is exactly what Thai massage addresses. However, if your back pain is sudden, severe, or accompanied by numbness or weakness, see a healthcare professional first to understand what is causing it before booking a massage.Q7: Is Thai massage safe if I have never had any massage before?
Yes. First-time massage recipients are completely welcome. Thai massage is often an excellent first experience because it is fully clothed, which many people find less intimidating than oil-based massage. Your masseuse will guide you through the entire session — there is nothing you need to know in advance.
