  • 005.7: Review: S Sense Massage – Leo

    Hello! It is BMM – Taeng Mo again. I am surprised that I have a backlog of reviews that I have yet to write and publish until BMM – Sawng mentioned to me that he is writing a summary of our most recent trip.

    Shop: S’Sense Massage 

    Date: January 2026

    Therapist: Leo

    Massage Course: 120 Minutes Oil Aromatherapy

    Cost: 1450 Baht

    Tips: 2000 Baht

    To know more about getting to S Sense and the preparation for a massage service at S Sense, please read our Introduction: S Sense post for more information. 🙂

    I first got to know Leo from Mr S, the boss of S Sense Massage TikTok livestream. Mr S was teaching new trainees on how to execute the signature S Sense massage techniques. Veteran therapists will enter the training room to interact with Mr S and the audience of the TikTok livestream. It was there that I chanced upon Leo. He looked cute and nerdy to me.

    For my previous visit to S Sense massage with Big, it was Leo that received me at the reception area and ushered me to take a seat. When I saw him in person, I loved what I saw. He has a typical nerdy boy look while having a super chill vibe. I knew for my next visit to S Sense, it had to be Leo as my massage therapist.

    I booked Leo for a 2 hour massage via S Sense Line and got a confirmation quickly. From my interaction with the admin, I can see that S Sense is really improving on admin – customer relations, especially with their replies to the customers. They have learned how to push 2 hour sessions without sounding too pushy.

    Upon my arrival to S Sense, Leo received me and assisted me in settling all the administrative work and scented oil selection. Leo then informed me that the massage room was located in another nearby building. We exited the main building and entered an alley to another building. This is quite common when the main building is experiencing full capacity. 

    I brought up the TikTok livestream interaction that I had with him and Leo remembered. Leo’s command of English was basic, easily understandable. There will be no communication issue if you cannot speak Thai. Leo, knowing that I spoke Thai, chose to communicate with me in Thai. 

    He told me to take a shower while he prepared the massage oil. After showering, I waited for him to return while resting on the massage bed. The start of the massage is true to S Sense’s signature style. He executed the S Sense massage technique and flow of massage flawlessly. He had a medium to strong strength and enjoyed finding knots on my shoulders and rhomboids.

    Being a regular to S Sense massage, I have since grown accustomed to the flow of massage and technique required by all S Sense therapists to execute. Yet, Leo did have his personal touch in his massage technique that added variation to S Sense massage style which excited me. 


    After turning over, I anticipated for Leo to ask me if I wanted any form of special service. I told Leo that I wanted a body to body massage and he smiled. He immediately prepared himself and executed a very sensual body to body massage.

    I was very happy with the body to body massage experience.  

    Compared to other more veteran massage therapists, Leo is a young therapist that only has a few years of experience. Despite this, he has managed to develop his own style of massage while maintaining the S Sense signature massage experience. Leo ensured that I was comfortable throughout the whole duration and did his best in providing for an excellent service.

    I will be returning to Leo for another massage session and will highly recommend Leo to anyone who likes a nerdy boy. 

    Do note that this is my personal experience with Leo and your experience may vary. If you have engaged Leo and have received the same or different experience, do share it with me if you are comfortable via email or a Discord message. 

  • 005.6: Review: S Sense Massage – Singha

    Hello! It is BMM – Taeng Mo again. This review is kinda special to me. I will not say I was gatekeeping Singha, I just thought that I have already written a review for Singha, from S Sense.

    Shop: S’Sense Massage 

    Date: January 2026

    Therapist: Singha

    Massage Course: 120 Minutes Oil Aromatherapy

    Cost: 1450 Baht

    Tips: 2000 baht

    To know more about getting to S Sense and the preparation for a massage service at S Sense, please read our Introduction: S Sense post for more information. 🙂 

    I have been going to S Sense massage way before I met BMM – Sawng and the rest of the BMM friends. I had all my massages with Singha for the longest time ever. All of the different massage courses on the menu, I have tried them with Singha. Be it a scrub, hot oil massage, normal oil massage, cream massage, to even Thai massage. 

    While the menu of services has shrunk over the years, the popularity of Singha has not. From the days that I knew him, about 3 years ago, he has constantly been the top 3 most visited therapists in S Sense. You had to make a reservation with him in advance.

    After exploring other therapists for about 2 years, I decided it was time to return to S Sense, to Singha. 

    Singha greeted me with his killer smile upon seeing me. It was like meeting an old friend whom you have lost contact with, but reconnected again. Singha is about 185cm tall and on the more mature side. He is very muscular with his biceps trying to burst out of his sleeves.

    One noticeable thing was that Singha’s command of English improved over the years while my command of Thai too has improved over the years. 

    After settling the administrative work for my massage, Singha started to introduce me to the various scented oils to be used for the massage. I always picked the same scent – not sure why I always continued to smell every scent that was introduced to me.

    For this time, my massage room was located in the main building, the highest floor, level 4. The amount of stairs to climb was no joke. If you have difficulty climbing stairs, do flag it out to the admin so they can arrange a more appropriate therapy room for you.

    Upon entering the massage room, Singha set up the shower area and told me to shower while he went to prepare the massage oil. After a short while, Singha returned. I decided to catch up with him before the massage started and told him I was very happy to see him again. He too, shared about his life, happenings, before ushering me to lie down on the massage bed.

    After the preparation for the massage was completed, he started the massage. His technique and skill have improved over the years. He remembered that I enjoyed a hard massage and delivered a hard massage for me. Having tried other therapists from S Sense too, I knew the flow of S Sense signature massage style. Singha followed the S Sense massage style while also adding in his personal touch to his massage style.

    After I turned over, the chemistry that Singha and I had nurtured over the years meant that he knew that I wanted a body to body massage. Everything flowed smoothly from a normal, sensual massage to the body to body massage. 


    Even though the tip for body to body massage was stipulated to be 900 Baht, I chose to give Singha 2000 Baht instead. This is as Singha never disappoints.

    During the whole massage duration, it was like a mini-reunion to me. I am very happy to have caught up with him after 2 years. I highly recommend Singha and if you do want to book him, reserve him in advance. 

    Do note that this is my personal experience with Singha and your experience may vary. If you have engaged Singha and have received the same or different experience, do share it with me if you are comfortable via email or a Discord message. 

  • 005.5: Review: The Residences – Son

    Hello, this is BMM – Sawng.

    Shop: The Residence at Sala Daeng
    Date: March 2026
    Therapist: Son
    Massage Course: 90 Minutes Oil Aromatherapy
    Cost: 1590 Baht
    Tips: 2000 Baht

    To know more about getting to The Residence and the preparation for a massage service at The Residence, please read our Introduction: The Residence post for more information. 🙂 


    For this massage session, I wanted to go to The Residence with Kah Moo and another friend of ours. Kah Moo picked Tyler while our friend, who wants to remain anonymous, chose Ford. I therefore asked the admin of The Residences who else was available at the same time slot as them. Out of all the therapists that the admin sent me, Son stood out the most and I picked him.

    In the photographs that the admin sent me, Son looked like he was tall. When he came out to receive me with a welcome drink, he turned out to be expected, tall, but taller than I imagined. Son was 185cm. Son also had a really fair skin tone with a good complexion.

    Son’s command of English is good. He is not too chatty by nature, but is willing to have a
    conversation if you are feeling up for it.

    As per Klover / History of Massage / The Residence standard operating procedure, a thin fabric was placed on my body before the start of the massage. Before starting the massage, he said to me that he was going to warm up my body by placing some pressure on my muscles with his palms. 

    This was the first time that someone explained to me what they were going to do. If you are a first timer to massage, I will recommend Son as he does explain the massage procedure to you and help you understand why he does certain actions. 

    Son’s massage strength is medium by default, which to me, was sufficient. After warming up my body, he told me that my body was very stiff and should do a Thai massage too. More on this later. I told him I knew that my body was very stiff, which is why I always enjoy massages. 

    Son then lifted the thin fabric to expose my upper body and whole butt. This is where I started to get excited. From my massage experience, if the therapist chose to unveil the fabric to reveal the butt, two things were about to happen. Your glutes will be massaged with care and the massage is going to be super sensual.

    With Son’s deep and long strokes, my back and glutes were worked simultaneously, relaxing my muscles and mind. While the strokes ended at the glutes, sensuality was added in to keep my mind engaged.

    I anticipated each of his strokes and looked forward to the sensuality induced by those strokes. The sensuality was ramped up when he removed the fabric to reveal my left leg. By the time that my right leg was massaged, the thin fabric was long gone.

    After my legs were done, I was already feeling damn good from the sensuality provided. I flipped over and continued with the massage and he continued to perform magic. He did ask if I wanted any special service and I smiled at him. There was no way I was refusing it.

    I asked for a body to body and he executed it with finesse. I thoroughly enjoyed his massage and his body to body massage.

    I gave him the agreed upon tip price of 2000 Baht and left extremely happy. My friends even commented that I had a nice afterglow effect on my complexion. 


    Son’s massage was so good that I told him I was going to find him again within the same trip. He was delighted by my comments. While I left The Residence, I texted the line admin to check on Son’s availability on the next day. After deconflicting my schedule to fit Son’s, I requested for the Thai massage that Son suggested. However, the admin told me that Son does not do Thai massage. I was caught off-guard, but I only wanted Son to massage me, so I picked the same course again, but this time 120 minutes of aromatherapy.

    Son makes it to my top 3 leaderboard for massage therapist as of now. Do note that my personal experience with Son may differ from yours. If you have engaged Son and have received the same or different experience and will like to share with me, feel free to reach out via an email or with a Discord message.


  • 005.4: Review: The Residences – Tyler

    Hello, this is BMM – Sawng, writing on behalf of BMM – Kah Moo. I interviewed Kah Moo and tried to get as much information out as possible, here is what he has to say.

    Shop: The Residence at Sala Daeng
    Date: March 2026
    Therapist: Tyler
    Massage Course: 90 Minutes Oil Aromatherapy
    Cost: 1590 Baht
    Tips: 2000 Baht

    To know more about getting to The Residence and the preparation for a massage service at The Residence, please read our Introduction: The Residence post for more information. 🙂 

    In The Residences’s Google Photos, Tyler had several pictures but all of them had his face cropped out. Tyler was a blind box, we did not know what he looked like.

    When Kah Moo and I, Sawng, entered The Residence together, Tyler came out first to receive Kah Moo and we were all shocked by how tall and handsome he was! Tyler is about 180cm tall with a very fair complexion. He is of mixed heritage, half-Thai half-Chinese, which explains why his features looked more Chinese than Thai.

    Tyler’s command of English was conversational. You can communicate with him in English and understand him without issue.

    At the start of the massage, Kah Moo requested for medium pressure. However, his medium pressure felt like strong pressure, maybe because of Tyler’s strong muscles. Kah Moo asked to sample for strong pressure and it was indeed way too strong for Kah Moo. Kah Moo suggests that if you like a medium pressure, you can request for light pressure with Tyler.

    Tyler’s massage technique consists of long, deep strokes. They were very on point with releasing the knots and tension within the muscles. Tyler was also not body shy. He was willing to deliver his massage to areas near to the private areas. Wherever possible, sensuality was included in the massage strokes.

    The massage progressed into a happy ending without negotiation. At the end of the session, I tipped him 2000 Baht and was very satisfied with the massage.

    Tyler has entered Kah Moo’s top 3 massage therapist ranking board and he will definitely be repeating Tyler whenever he has the chance to. 

    Do note that this is my friend’s experience with Tyler and it may vary with you. As this is the amount of information provided to me by my friend, it is not as long or detailed as my other review attempts. If you have engaged Tyler before and am comfortable sharing your experience with me, feel free to reach out via an email or a Discord message. 

  • 005.3: Review: The Residences – Ford

    Hello, this is BMM – Sawng, writing on behalf of a friend who wishes to stay anonymous. I interviewed him and tried to get as much information out as possible and here is what he has to say.

    Shop: The Residence at Sala Daeng
    Date: March 2026
    Therapist: Ford
    Massage Course: 90 Minutes Oil Aromatherapy
    Cost: 1590 Baht
    Tips: 500 Baht was the minimum tip, I cannot recall the amount of tip he gave

    To know more about getting to The Residence and the preparation for a massage service at The Residence, please read our Introduction: The Residence post for more information. 🙂

    Ford was previously from Klover and has since moved to The Residence. He is quite popular as he was recommended by a few YouTube videos. Previously at Klover, his schedule was more limited which resulted in his appointment slots being booked up quickly. Fortunately, with his arrival to The Residences, he now has much more appointment slots, which is good news for us.

    Ford’s command of English is pretty good and can hold conversations in English. The vibes that Ford gave were very positive. He was caring, constantly checking in on his massage pressure and if you felt comfortable with his massage. 

    Ford’s style of massage was unique. He is able to combine his strokes to release tension and knots within your body while maintaining a good amount of sensuality. Through the whole massage, it was very sensual yet relaxing.

    The build up of sensuality culminated in a happy ending with Ford. As there was still some time left, Ford continued to give me a good massage till the time for the post-shower massage arrived.

    Do note that this is my friend’s experience with Ford and it may vary with you. As this is the amount of information provided to me by my friend, it is not as long or detailed as my other review attempts. If you have engaged Ford before and am comfortable sharing your experience with me, feel free to reach out via an email or a Discord message. 

  • 005.2: Review: The Residences – Zeki

    Hello, this is BMM – Sawng.

    Shop: The Residence at Sala Daeng
    Date: March 2026
    Therapist: Zeki
    Massage Course: 90 Minutes Oil Aromatherapy
    Cost: 1590 Baht
    Tips: 1000 Baht (500 Baht was the minimum tip)

    To know more about getting to The Residence and the preparation for a massage service at The Residence, please read our Introduction: The Residence post for more information. 🙂

    Zeki was previously from History of Massage and has since moved to The Residence. He was already popular from History of Massage and is still as popular at The Residence. You will need to secure a reservation with him a few days in advance. Zeki having one of the best photographs in The Residence Google Photos does help him secure a lot of potential customers.

    When Zeki approached me to serve me the welcome drink and the change of footwear, I was happy to see a handsome face. His face was in between cute boyish and masculine manly. Zeki was about 175cm with a slightly tanned skin tone.

    I could not ascertain Zeki’s command of English as he was pretty silent during the whole massage process. He was able to give instructions in simple English.

    I requested for Zeki to deliver a strong massage and he was able to give me a strong massage. His technique involves a lot of swirling motion which was very calming.

    When Zeki started to work on my lower body, I realised that there was no sensuality given and it was very professional. Zeki was not shy in massaging all areas of your body, like your inner thigh, but will avoid touching your private parts.

    With plenty of massage experience, I knew that if a therapist chose to avoid sensuality and maintain strict professional zero contact with your private parts, they are not keen on providing a happy ending. Well, I was half right. 

    After turning over and working a lill on my body, he initiated the happy ending chat, asking if I wanted extra. I usually start off the conversation by returning the question back to the therapist and ask what kind of extras they can offer. Zeki then offered 4 options for me to choose, each with an increasing amount of tips.

    After quoting his service and prices, it was no longer worth it for me to seek a happy ending with him. The prices were way above market rate. It was as though that his ask for a high price was an intentional deterrent for people to not proceed with the happy ending with him. I was not mad, nor disappointed. Maybe disappointed that I did not get to see his body, but not with the massage.

    Despite the failed attempt to get me to partake in a happy ending, he did not shortchange my massage timing at all. He dutifully executed the remaining massage with the same amount of professionalism and ensured that he delivered a good relaxing massage to me.

    I chose to tip Zeki 1000 Baht, 500 more than the minimum tip as he did a good job in delivering a professional massage. Will I return to Zeki for a massage? Probably not. There are too many male for male therapists out there who are more willing to please at market rate tips. 

    Do note that this is my personal experience with Zeki and your experience may vary. If you have engaged with Zeki and have received the same or different experience, do share it with me if you are comfortable via email or a Discord message. 

  • 005.1 Review: Klover – Benten

    Hello, this is BMM – Sawng.

    Shop: Klover
    Date: March 2026
    Therapist: Benten
    Massage Course: 90 Minutes Oil Aromatherapy
    Cost: 1490 Baht
    Tips: 2000 Baht

    To know more about getting to Klover and the preparation for a massage service at Klover, please read our Introduction: Klover post for more information. 🙂

    Benten is a therapist that is on my radar for the longest period of time. His pictures featured on Klover’s Line page are absolutely divine. Due to his erratic schedule, I was unable to book a slot with him till now.

    Benten has no face pictures featured anywhere so picking him is akin to opening a blind box, you will not know what you get till you see him in person. Benten is pleasantly handsome, with nice facial hair, eluding a very masculine aura to him. He is slightly shorter than 170cm and has a super muscular body. You can see his chest and arms muscles bulging out of his tightly fit shirt.

    Benten was not very chatty throughout the whole session, so I could not ascertain his command of English. The most we chatted was him asking where I was from, was the pressure okay, requesting me to take a shower etc.

    When Benten re-entered the room after I took a shower, I saw him carrying a bottle of massage oil instead of a saucer of massage oil. This was when I knew that he would be using a lot of oil to massage me. I was very glad as personally I like the heavy use of massage oil to create smooth, long, deep strokes.

    He started off with the Klover / History of Massage / The Residence standard operating procedure of putting a thin fabric over my body, only to reveal parts of the body that are to be massaged. My upper body was revealed first and he started working on them. I was pleasantly surprised that his massage was really good. He used a lot of long and deep strokes, with the right amount of pressure to relax my muscles. His massage techniques are very professional and meticulous.

    After my upper body was done, he did not cover my upper body and removed the thin fabric over my right leg. He continued his massage with the right techniques, long and deep strokes. But this time, he added in lots of sensuality. It was not sensuality for the sake of sensuality. It was sensuality that made you feel good. He knew what he was doing and what feelings his actions would create for you. It was very intentional, sensual and amazing.

    Usually, if a massage is just typical, so-so, ordinary, I will zone out easily. Not for Benten. The anticipation for him to mirror his actions on my right leg to my left leg was insane. I was looking forward to each of his strokes, being in between relaxation and feeling sensual.

    By the time I turned over, I realised that a lot of time had passed. There was not much time left, which meant that I did not manage to worship his large muscular body. I did manage to touch his upper body and it was so good.

    The massage proceeded into the happy ending without discussion or negotiation, a very natural flow that I appreciated. Knowing the market rate for a happy ending, I was not flustered by the lack of negotiation. I knew I was going to give him a fair tip for his massage.

    Usually, I will avoid 2 hour massages, but with Benten, I think I will go for it as the timing he had for 90 minutes seems a bit too rushed for him to complete his whole massage experience.

    What Benten gives is not a massage, but an experience. An experience that makes him enter the top 3 of my leaderboard for massage experiences. I will definitely try to repeat him once per trip to Bangkok to experience what he has done for me. I highly recommend Benten if your schedule meets his schedule.

    Do note that this is my personal experience with Benten and your experience may vary. If you have engaged Benten and have received the same or different experience, do share it with me if you are comfortable via email or a Discord message. 

  • 000. Introduction: Olivia / Wisdom Massage

    Hello, this is BMM – Sawng. Here is an introduction to Olivia Massage / Wisdom Massage and what to expect on your first visit. 

    Introduction

    Olivia Massage and Wisdom Massage belong to the same management that runs Gass Bangkok bar and White Rabbit Bar Silom.

    As of writing, Olivia has 4 branches peppered around Silom district while Wisdom Massage has only 1 outlet. Both concepts are similar in their product offering, being,

    • Foot massage, 
    • Thai Body Massage, and
    • Body Massage with oil.

    Olivia Massage and Wisdom Massage welcomes both male and female customers and have both male and female therapists. We at BMM always do walk-ins and do not make reservations in advance. This is as Olivia and Wisdom always have stand-by capacity for walk-ins.

    If you are like us at BMM who prefer male therapists, fret not. The male to female therapists ratio is very high, almost 10:1. For foot massage, you will be assigned a therapist based on their roster. For Thai body massage or oil body massage, you get to choose your therapist. 

    The chance of you being assigned, or choosing an available male therapist is very high as Olivia and Wisdom Massage male to female therapist ratio is quite high, almost 10:1.

    If you wish to engage in any form of therapy, feel free to walk towards the acrylic board displaying their menu and prices. There’ll be a manager there trying to sell you their available massage packages. Let him or her know what you want, a foot massage, Thai body massage, or body massage with oil.

    They will then usher you into the shop and you will change your footwear to their slippers. Payment is to be made first at the cashier. After payment, you will then be ushered towards the different treatment places for your therapy.

    Foot Massage

    For foot massage, you will first be ushered to a foot wash basin to lather and rinse your feet. After this is done, you will be guided to your seat where you will lie down on a recliner sofa and have your feet massaged.

    The timing used on each foot will be your massage duration, minus 10 minutes, divided by two. This means if you take a 60 minute massage, each foot will get about 25 minutes of therapy time and the last 10 minutes will be used to massage your neck and back.

    I do not know if the neck and back part can be skipped. I tried telling them before that I do not want it in English. They will acknowledge and still do it anyway. 


    After the massage is done, a customary tip should be given to the therapist as their main source of income is tips. It is up to you to choose your tip amount. At BMM, we usually give 100 Baht regardless of the treatment duration. 


    Thai Body Massage
    As for Thai body massage, you will be brought to a place where it could be either a partitioned room, or a common area with curtains as partition.

    You will be asked to change into their Thai body massage attire for easy stretching and massaging of your body. Change into it and it is your choice to keep your underwear on or off. 

    As we are not too familiar with Thai massage, we will not be describing the flow of the Thai massage in detail. We usually go for a body massage with oil.

    There is a chance that your therapist may offer a happy ending. The going market rate is 500 Baht for a handjob. If your therapist opens the negotiation with 1000 Baht, please feel free to counter the offer at 500 Baht and see how it goes. It is then up to you to decide at what price point you are willing to accept. It is also okay to reject the happy ending offer if the price is not to your liking.

    After the massage is done, a customary tip should be given to the therapist as it is their main source of income. It is up to you to choose your tip amount. At BMM, we usually give 100 Baht if no happy endings are given.

    Body Massage with Oil

    For body massage with oil, you will be brought to a room with an ensuite shower.

    It is the standard procedure for customers to take a pre and post massage shower. This showering duration is part of your package duration. It is the standard industry practice to include the showering time as part of your chosen package duration.

    After taking the pre-massage shower, wait for the therapist to re-enter the room. Lie face down onto the treatment bed and let the therapist perform his magic. 

    There is a chance that your therapist may offer a happy ending. The going market rate is 500 Baht for a handjob. If your therapist opens the negotiation with 1000 Baht, please feel free to counter the offer at 500 Baht and see how it goes.

    After the massage is done, a customary tip should be given to the therapist as it is their main source of income. It is up to you to choose your tip amount. At BMM, we usually give 100 Baht if no happy endings are given. 

    Conclusion

    If you are looking for a fuss free massage or a place to pass time, Olivia / Wisdom Massage is a very good place to be at.

    A happy ending is not always guaranteed, but you should not be going to such places with an expectation of a happy ending. It is always a bonus. 

  • 000. Introduction: S Sense Massage

    Hello, this is BMM – Sawng. Here is an introduction to S Sense Massage and what to expect when going to S Sense for a massage.

    Introduction
    S Sense Massage is a massage shop that has male therapists catering to primarily male customers.

    Reaching S Sense Massage
    S Sense is located in Suan Plu, which is far from any public transit system. Hence, the most efficient and optimal way to reach S Sense is via a Grab. Grab is the uber equivalent in Thailand. On the Grab app itself, S Sense Massage can be found as a destination and your driver will drive you straight to S Sense Massage.

    With S Sense only accessible via private car or bike, the unpredictability of Bangkok’s traffic will mean that you have to factor in additional 50% traveling time that the Google Map suggests. A 20 minute trip on Google Map will materialise into a 30 minute trip.

    For foodies, there is a cafe nearby called Bartel’s that serves really good sourdough sandwiches.

    Sequence of Events

    Step 1: Selection of Therapist(s)
    To select your therapists, you will first need to have the LINE application downloaded onto your mobile phone. LINE is an instant messaging application that is currently the de facto messaging application used by Thais.

    Once you have downloaded LINE, add S Sense Massage @nai4795h to your contacts and chat with them. From there, you can see a Menu tab that brings up Therapist, Menu, Booking, Location, Promotion and Contact.

    Click onto Therapist to see all the available therapists available and see who best suits you. From here, you have 2 choices depending on your schedule. If your schedule is limited to one opening of massage, from 60 minutes to 120 minutes. I will suggest you talk to the admin of the History of Massage LINE account and ask who is available on that day and timing. From there, pick someone you find most attractive to go and have a massage with.

    If your schedule is more flexible, I will suggest picking a few therapists from the photo album and then check with the admin, individually, on their availability. From there, you can see whose schedule matches yours the most and pick the best therapist for you.

    In both choices, the admin will check if the therapist of your choice is available at your desired timing. Once confirmed to be available, you will proceed to Step 2.

    Try to use simple and basic English if possible. You do not even need to construct a complete sentence. An example can be, “Singha free 18 August at 2pm?”

    Step 2: Select a therapy
    Unique to S Sense Massage is their duration. They will strongly encourage you to take the 2 hour massage course as most of their therapies are designed around the 2 hour duration. There are a few massage courses for you to pick, but honestly, I will pick the cheapest that is available. The basic entry level massage is often good enough.

    If you are new to the massage industry, the 2 hour massage duration is inclusive of the time you take for a pre-massage shower and post-shower massage, and any other time spent administering the pre or post massage service to you. The time frame serves as a reference for how long you will spend in the shop, not how long the massage service will be. A 2 hour massage session that starts at 3pm will mean that you will leave the shop approximately around 5pm, leaving about 1 hour 45 minutes of massage therapy. This is the standard industry practice.

    Personally, I’m not a fan of a 2 hour massage session as my attention span for massages typically lasts only about 90 minutes. However, for S Sense, I try my best to enjoy the massage and not get distracted by my own thoughts and go for the 2 hour session.

    Step 3: Show up for your massage
    Upon stepping into S Sense, the receptionist / stand-by therapists will usher you to sit in their small reception area and confirm your booking. Show your booking details on your Line app with them and proceed to make payment. Payment in credit card will incur a service fee, so pay in cash if you prefer.

    Your therapist will then appear with a welcome drink and a change of footwear for you. During which, you may be asked to select a massage oil scent for your massage.

    Over the years, S Sense has expanded to more than just one physical building. There are a few buildings within a 3 minutes walking distance of the S Sense reception area that S Sense operates out of. You may be asked to go to these ancillary buildings to have your treatment. 

    This is where I want to share a BMM tip with you. Always arrive 15 minutes earlier before your stipulated appointment timing. The 15 minutes will be used for the receptionist to welcome you, change your footwear and take the pre-massage shower. The therapist will often enter the therapy room at your appointment timing. He will then be able to provide for a longer massage session for you.

    Step 4: Tip your therapist
    One major thing that S Sense does very well is their transparency of tips. After you confirm your service with S Sense via Line, you can ask them for their tipping guideline and they will send you a picture detailing their “extra” service to end the massage. 

    The tipping rate is as follows, 

    • 100 to 200 Baht: Regular massage with no additional service,
    • 500 Baht: Basic happy ending
    • 900 Baht and above: Body to body massage

    As usual, you may choose to tip more than the stipulated amount if you have received exceptional service by the therapist. 


    With the transparency of “extra” service and the tips amount associated with it, it removes ambiguity to what the therapists can or cannot do in S Sense. You can expect the massage therapist to ask you nearing the end of the massage on what your choice of “extras” are.

    You may or may not wish to take up the “extra” offer. It is up to you to decide. Your comfort level matters the most, the therapists will not be disappointed if you opt for just a regular massage with no “extras”. 

  • 000. Introduction: The Residence at Sala Daeng

    Hello, this is BMM – Sawng. Here is an introduction to The Residences at Sala Daeng and what to expect on your first visit.

    Introduction

    The Residences at Sala Daeng (“The Residences”) started in 2026 as a massage parlour that has male therapists catering to primarily male customers. 

    The management behind The Residences is the same management for Klover Massages and History of Massage. However, the therapists for each outlet are unique and cannot work at two different locations at the same time. 

    Reaching The Residences

    The Residences is located in YJA Building, at Sala Daeng district, near the newly opened Central Park Dusit mall along Silom Road.

    To reach The Residences, you can, 

    • Take the BTS (Sala Daeng) or MRT (Silom) and walk over, or
    • Grab / Taxi

    If you are taking the BTS / MRT, follow the sheltered walkways or underground passageways to Central Park Dusit. Enter the mall and cross over to the exit nearer to Dusit Thani. Dusit Thani is the hotel that is attached to Central Park Dusit. From there, walk along the street and follow Google Maps’s instructions. It is about a 10 to 15 minute walk.

    Do note that in Google Maps, there are two YJA Building entries, 

    • Yja Building (wrong),
    • YJA Building (correct). 


    Make sure you choose the right one as your destination location. 

    If you are taking Grab, the uber equivalent in Thailand, make sure you input YJA Building instead of The Residences. The Residences, under the Grab app, is a condominium complex that is near the YJA Building. You will be dropped at the condominium complex and a short walk is required for you to reach YJA Building.

    The unpredictability of Bangkok’s traffic will mean that you will have to factor in an additional 50% traveling time on top of what Google Maps suggests for your Grab ride. A 20 minute trip on Google Map can materialise into a 30 minute trip easily.

    Upon reaching YJA Building, you will see a security post, manned or unmanned. Walk through it and take the left corridor till you see an elevator and toilet. Call the elevator and go to Level 4. The reception area of The Residences is at Level 4. 

    Sequence of Events

    Step 1: Selection of Therapist(s)

    To select your therapists, you will first need to have the LINE application downloaded onto your mobile phone. LINE is an instant messaging application that is currently the de facto messaging application used by Thais.

    Once you have downloaded LINE, add The Residences @residences-bkk to your contacts and chat with them. From there, you can see a MENU tab that showcases Therapist Information, Promotion and Location. Click onto Therapists to see the Services provided as well as the therapists available in a Google Photos album.

    From here, you have 2 choices depending on your schedule. If your schedule is limited to one opening of massage, from 60 minutes to 120 minutes. I will suggest you talk to the admin of the History of Massage LINE account and ask who is available on that day and timing. From there, pick someone you find most attractive to go and have a massage with.

    If your schedule is more flexible, I will suggest picking a few therapists from the photo album and then check with the admin, individually, on their availability. From there, you can see whose schedule matches yours the most and pick the best therapist for you.

    In both choices, the admin will check if the therapist of your choice is available at your desired timing. Once confirmed to be available, you will proceed to Step 2.

    Try to use simple and basic English if possible. You do not even need to construct a complete sentence. An example can be, “Ice free 18 August at 2pm?”

    Step 2: Select a therapy and duration
    Take a look at their menu and select the massage course you want. Personally, I will recommend taking the cheapest massage option, as the basic entry level massage is often good enough. 


    If you are new to the massage industry, there are usually 3 fixed duration for purely massage, 60 minutes, 90 minutes or 120 minutes. This time is inclusive of the time you take for a pre-massage shower and a post-massage shower, and any other time spent in administering the pre or post massage service to you. The time frame serves as a reference for how long you will spend in the shop, not how long the massage service is going to take. If you pick a 60 minute massage that starts at 3pm, you will leave the shop at 4pm with approximately 45 minutes of massage therapy. This is the standard industry practice.

    Personally, I will pick a 90 minute massage session as a 60 minute massage is too rushed for me. I avoid picking 120 minutes as my attention span for massages can typically last for about 90 minutes. Anything more than that, I will be very restless. If you are able to do a 120 minute massage and be able to enjoy it, go for it!

    However, if you are thinking of adding on a scrub, do note that a scrub roughly takes about 20 minutes to complete. If you are thinking of a 60 minute massage with a complete scrub, pick the 90 minutes massage with scrub option.

    Step 3: Make Full payment

    Unlike Klover or History of Massage that allows for a deposit of 500 Baht, The Residences requires you to pay in full before you can secure your booking. Once you have made your payment in full, take a screenshot of your payment and send it back to the admin. The admin will then double confirm with you that your reservation is confirmed and completed.

    Step 4: Show up for your massage
    Upon entering The Residences, the receptionist will check with you if you are a walk-in or have a reservation. Just mention the name of the therapist you have reserved and let them complete the administrative work with you. 

    The receptionist will usher you to take a seat and page for your therapist to bring a welcome drink and a change of footwear for you. Once you have changed into their slippers and finished your drink, your therapist will lead you to their treatment room located at Level 3 for your pre-massage shower.


    This is where I want to share a BMM tip with you. Always arrive 15 minutes earlier before your stipulated appointment timing. The 15 minutes will be used for the receptionist to welcome you, change your footwear and take the pre-massage shower. The therapist will often enter the therapy room at your appointment timing. He will then be able to provide for a longer massage session for you.


    Step 5: Tip your therapist

    Upon the end of the massage, before leaving the therapy room, pass your tips over in cash to your therapist. 

    If you have received a regular massage with no additional service, the minimal tip is 500 Baht. If the massage was good and you really enjoyed it, I would highly recommend tipping more than 500 Baht. I will usually tip 1000 Baht for exceptional massage, with no additional service.

    As The Residences is a soft-style massage establishment, nearing the end of the massage (or at the start), the therapist may ask if you want any specials. At The Residences, the therapists are not supposed to suggest the special that they can provide or the tips required for it.

    A basic happy ending will be around 1000 Baht, while a body to body massage will be around 2000 Baht. If the therapist quotes you more than this amount, it is up to you to decide if it is acceptable to you. Negotiate if you want to. If all things fail, you can always default back to the minimum tips for a regular massage.
