Had the East West massage with Joy and it was wonderful. I contacted them via email the day before I wanted an appointment and they responded promptly.
They are located on Richards between Robson and Smithe at the back of a brown office building. The first thing that struck me when I walked in the door was nice the place smelled. The spa is nicely decorated with touches of Thai art. My therapy room had a sink and shower as well as a chair and the massage table.
My massage started with Joy washing my feet with a hot towel. After the massage she used more hot towels to remove the oil. The final touch after I dressed, was a nice cup of green tea.
Perfect rainy day activity. -

Smile Thai Wellness is an oasis in our hectic modern life. I walked in, tired and sore with a shoulder injury. I saw Daniel, a Registered Massage Therapist, for a series of treatments. With his professional approach to treatment and knowledge of the body I was able to work pain free.
This is the prefect place to go for a balance of therapeutic work and a calm grounding environment. -

After my return from Buddhist meditation in Thailand, I looked for an authentic Thai massage and found Austin at Smile Thai Wellness. Austin brings his Buddhist compassion (he was a monk in Thailand) and great skills. At the end of the session I get a cup of tea, a typical Thai hospitality. I get Thai Yoga massage once per month and recommend Austin to all my friends and clients. Smile Thai Wellness has a new place and a true oasis of Thai culture and health.

Austin is AMAZING! When I went in I was exhausted and cranky. I had never been to have a thai massage before and did not know what to expect. Austin was recommended by a rather large group of girlfriends who all said he has the "magic hands". Although it is a bit different than a regular massage it is in it's way better for those of us that are stiff and sore. I don't stretch enough and this massage was massaging as well as stretching and it was exactly what I needed to feel better. Austin refers to it as lazy man's yoga and it gave me that good stretch, the kind where you don't want to let go! I am already making time for my next appointment.

I found Austin 5 years ago while looking for a massage therapist. I had deep tissue massages weekly for years but after my first Thai massage, I never had another deep tissue massage. Thai massage incorporates the ideal combination of deep tissue massage and stretching which is exactly what I need. Austin listens and will spend more time on a particular area, if necessary. He customizes the massage to your needs and makes it a truly wonderful experience. I spend 5 months a year in Vancouver and see Austin weekly (sometimes twice a week for that extra treat). I have referred all my friends who thank me constantly. The new Smile Thai Wellness studio is so tastefully decorated and a sense of calmness comes over you the minute you walk in. Would give it 10 stars if I could. Can't wait to be back in Vancouver.

Smile Thai Wellness is a rather unique experience once you walk through the door. As you arrive at Smile Thai Wellness you will notice a small garden courtyard which faces the Wellness Center. This garden is very lush and gives it that peaceful and relaxed environment. The garden can be viewed during Meditation Classes that are FREE! :) Once you enter this harmonized center you will notice all the decor and even the smell and taste of Thailand. Smile Thai offers a great range of services from Thai Massage, Registered Massage Therapist, Acupuncture, Body Worker, Integrative Energy Healing, Thai Spa Treatments, and Thai Yoga and Meditation Classes! All of these services under one roof in downtown Vancouver! Post treatment you are awarded with the best tasting Ginger Tea I have ever had!
