TA-VISA Health Massage

Check that the door is still open before you make the trip. The most recent review of TA-VISA, posted a year ago, says the shop has closed. The listing still shows hours, 10:30 to 21:30 every day except Tuesday, but nothing more recent confirms it is trading.

This guide lists it as a happy ending shop, yet its Google categories are an ordinary massage spa and Thai massage, and most of its reviews are about neck, shoulder and back pain. It suits someone out in Min Buri looking for a Thai or oil massage. It doesn't suit anyone travelling across the city on the strength of the listing, or anyone who wants a published price.

The listing tags oil massage and Thai massage, and Google files TA-VISA as a massage spa. There is no website, only a Facebook page, so no menu or description is published. Google reviewers describe what they came for: several mention relief for office syndrome, with a neck, shoulder and back massage that one reviewer returns for every two weeks.

Reviewers also often mention a clean shop. One calls it very private, and another says it felt secure. That is the full picture on record; nothing more is published about the rooms or the services.

Nobody publishes a price for this one, the shop included. Ask for the menu at the door and agree the price and the length before you start.

One Google reviewer from two years ago reports a sign outside showing 350 baht for a Thai massage, then being quoted 400 baht at the counter and 500 baht by the masseuse. That is one report, but it is a good reason to fix the figure in advance. Older reviewers, by contrast, call the prices reasonable or the best around.

The listing gives 10:30 to 21:30 from Wednesday to Monday; Tuesday's hours aren't listed, which may mean a day off. No phone, LINE or booking channel is published beyond the Facebook page. One reviewer says they phoned to ask about prices and were turned away as a first-time customer. With the reported closure as well, try the Facebook page before you go.

The address is 2 Ramkhamhaeng Soi 164, Min Buri, far out on the eastern side of the city. The nearest stations are MRT Bang Chan and MRT Setthabutbamphen, both about 2.2 km away, roughly 36 minutes on foot. This is a taxi or car address.

The door shuts at 21:30, early by the standards of this guide. For shops closer to the centre, with published cards and later hours, start from the Bangkok city page, the Top 20 or the near BTS and MRT list.

TA-VISA Health Massage holds a 4.4 Google rating from 23 reviews, though most of them are several years old.

The positive reviews tell a consistent story. Several reviewers came for neck, shoulder and back pain from desk work, and describe a skilled massage that left them feeling lighter. Reviewers often mention a clean shop and good, friendly service, and a few older reviews call the prices reasonable.

The recent reviews are less settled. The newest, from a year ago, says the shop has closed. A one-star reviewer says they phoned about prices and were refused as a newcomer. Another one-star review, from two years ago, reports three different prices for the same hour of Thai massage. With the closure reported and nothing newer to contradict it, confirm the shop is open before making the long trip out.
