Women’s Massage Center
Our first massage center opened in 2014 with just a handful of the Thai Massage vocational graduates from the women’s prison in Chiang Mai. Those who wished to use their newly earned skills in traditional Thai massage were eager to join and extend their skills. In a short time, this program became internationally known, and well and is appreciated by tourists and the local. By 2015, three massage centers were running to increase the capacity for these women in vocational rehabilitation who need practical support, in a safe environment. With continual training once these women join the professional society, the services have expanded into massage oil, facials, pedicures or manicures and more. The staff are managed and supported by a team of professionals made up of academics and government officers, while gradually incorporating the rehabilitated women into manager positions as the project grows.
