Amarin Thai Traditional Massage - Wellington Central
4.5/5
★
based on 8 reviews
One of the best therapists I have come across in all my travels. Jen can loosen up almost any tightness, but be ready for thorough deep tissue work if you request it. The initial entrance is just a staircase with a door in between two buildings off of Terrace door is one floor down. The accommodations are simple but clean.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I came here because of the good reviews thinking it would be an authentic Thai massage. However, I was very disappointed! She started 5 minutes late and disappeared half way through for another 5 minutes so the whole massage was only 50 min and not 1 hour. She basically just rubbed (way too much) oil on me and said that if I wanted more pressure that would be more expensive. I couldn't believe it! It was still 75 dollars for 50 min so the least I expected was a decent massage, but no! I wouldn't recommend!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ In Wellington for a short holiday and decided to treat myself to a (hopefully) good Thai massage. I was not disappointed. I highly recommend Amarin.
I've had Thai and other style massage all over the world, I mostly prefer Thai deep tissue massage (it hurts so good!). I always feel that an hour isn't long enough for my the masseuse to get through my big body but on this experience they did an admirable job.
I recently injured my back and they were very conscious and obliging around my concern and managed to still work me I to a sweat, knead those darn knots our of my muscles and help me relax and recharge.
The price was a bit higher than what I usually pay in Auckland ($65) but it was within walking distance of my hotel (5 min) and the only legit looking Thai massage place in the CBD. Which makes the price totally worth it.
I will be back again.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A few tips if you want to try out this place:
1. The place is buried under a narrow suspicious staircase next a parking lot. The interior is feeling unsurprisingly like a dungeon. If you are claustrophobic, this is not the right massage place for you.
2. Be aware, they do NOT take credit card, and they don't tell you when you book either. The nearest ATM is 10 min walk away.
3. Although their website says $75 for 60 min of Thai massage with oil, it is only the price of "relaxing" one. You will find out at the front desk the regular deep pressure Thai style is actually $85. So prepare your cash accordingly.
Judging the massage itself alone, I'd rate it 3 out of 5. It was not authentic Thai style, but it was not weak either.
I might be wrong about this, but I think the two masseuses we had were speaking Vietnamese instead of Thai (I got the impression from their website and the shop name that they are authentic Thai), and constantly chatting over the room separation throughout our session.
All in all, if you have only one chance to try massage in Wellington like us, I wouldn't recommend this one.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I highly recommend this place.
I have been coming here for several years and have always been extremely happy with the massages I receive and the professionalism of their service.
All of the therapists are trained in traditional Thai massage and provide strong or less-strong massage. They have always made sure to understand any problems that I have and to make sure that the massages are working to address those. I appreciate how they ask and adapt their technique in subsequent visits if I, or they, think the results could be improved. The additional stretching they can provide has been helpful to me. Since I have been coming most of the therapists have been Thai.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The first massage I got there was excellent. The second was poor and finished early. I will be looking elsewhere as it's not cheap and expect better.
