I wish I had taken a few photos while at Ban Sin Thai for you all to see, but I was so taken with the incredible service and out-of-this-world massage that I completely forgot to. You'll just have to take my work for it for now: the place is lovely, and if you're down for a real deal Thai massage, Ban Sin is the place.
Be forewarned, this massages are NOT for the fain of heart. Intense and very, very deep, they can be somewhat painful and more than once my breath was taken away. However, after strolling the streets of London and Paris for 6 days in a row, not to mention the wretched pain in my back caused by the red-eye flight over the pond, I really needed to get the kinks out. This massage did that, and then some.
The polite little women were efficient, effective, and professional. I was amazed by my masseuses' strength and ability to bend, crack, and jostle my nearly 6' frame back into alignment -- she was barely 5' and was a lithe little thing but she certainly got the job done.
Post-massage, I was given plenty of water and time to come out of my haze and back into reality. I appreciate their punctuality, the incredible quietness of the place considering it's on a bustling street in Montparnasse, and the over-all relaxing feel of the spa. They were also able to take myself and my husband as walk-in clients, which was awesome. Definitely give them a try if you're looking for legit Thai massage or to get your body back in muscular alignment. read more
