Frequently asked questions

Thai massage can be intense, but at Tera Thai we always adjust the pressure to your preference. Before the treatment the therapist will ask about your expectations — you can ask to change the intensity at any time.

A massage at Tera Thai in Gdańsk or Gdynia comes in 60, 90 or 120-minute variants. That time covers the full treatment — from a welcome and short consultation, through the massage, to a moment of rest at the end. We recommend arriving a few minutes early.

Yes — online booking via Booksy is available 24/7. Just click “Book” on this page. No registration is required. You can also call: Gdynia 730 823 434, Gdańsk 538 899 993.

Yes, we take walk-ins when a slot is free. If there isn't one, we'll suggest another time or our other salon (Gdańsk or Gdynia).

Nothing in particular — at Tera Thai we provide towels, oils and clothing for Thai massage. Avoid heavy meals for at least an hour before your treatment.

For an oil massage you keep your own underwear on or we give you disposable underwear. During the massage you are covered with a towel.

In the first trimester, the first 12 weeks, we don't perform massage in any form. From the second trimester, with the consent of your doctor or midwife, you are welcome to book our Mother-to-Be Massage. Please tell your therapist you are pregnant before the treatment.

Book a time in Gdańsk or Gdynia through Booksy or by phone, and give the voucher number when booking. A voucher is valid for 6 months from purchase. An amount voucher pays for any massage or package.

Both Tera Thai salons — Gdańsk (Zaspa) and Gdynia (Redłowo) — are open daily, including weekends and holidays, 12:00–22:00 (there can be exceptions, such as New Year's Eve, so on those days please call to confirm the hours). We usually accept the last booking 60–90 minutes before closing.

Phone bookings and contact with the Tera Thai salons in Gdańsk and Gdynia are handled in Polish or English. During your visit you'll have no trouble communicating in English — the therapists also know basic Polish, so agreeing on pressure or mentioning any discomfort is never a problem.

Yes — full English service during the visit. Tera Thai is an authentic Asian massage salon with two locations: Gdańsk (Zaspa, ul. Hynka 18/lok. U13) and Gdynia (Redłowo, ul. Redłowska 37/10). Traditional Thai massage, Balinese massage, Lomi-Lomi, Shiatsu and couples massage, daily 12:00–22:00. Book online via Booksy 24/7.

Yes — at both Tera Thai salons, in Gdańsk and Gdynia, you can use the shower before and after your treatment. Fresh towels and linens for every guest are standard, and after an oil massage the shower makes it easy to comfortably continue your day.

For a first visit to Tera Thai and pure relaxation we usually recommend Balinese Pijat Bali or Hawaiian Lomi-Lomi — oil-based, gentle and enveloping. For tense neck and back muscles, classic Thai massage works best, and for targeted tension, Japanese Shiatsu. If you're unsure, use our 20-second massage matcher at the top of the Massages page, or give us a call — we'll help you choose.

We do classic Thai massage without oil, in comfortable clothing, on a massage table. The therapist presses along the sen lines with palms, thumbs, elbows and knees and stretches the body in yoga-inspired positions. Balinese massage (Pijat Bali) is done on a table, under a towel, with warm oil whose scent you choose, and combines kneading with long, flowing strokes. In both, we adjust the pressure to you. Our guide Thai or Balinese massage compares them in more detail.

It depends on the person, how tense you are and your lifestyle. If you want to come regularly, a session every 2–4 weeks is a good rhythm.

We chose both salons with easy access in mind. Gdańsk (Zaspa, ul. Hynka 18/lok. U13): designated free parking spaces right outside the salon, tram stops nearby, and Gdańsk Zaspa SKM station about a 5-minute walk away (about 350 m). Gdynia (Redłowo, Redłowska 37/10): free parking spaces in front of the building, and you can also park on ul. Redłowska; close to bus stops and Redłowo SKM station. Directions in detail: the Gdańsk salon and the Gdynia salon.

Yes — at Tera Thai we do not perform massage in cases including fever and infections, fresh injuries and inflammation, thrombosis, skin conditions at the treatment site, and the first trimester of pregnancy. For chronic illnesses (including heart conditions, cancer, osteoporosis) prior doctor's approval is needed. That's why we carry out a short consultation before every treatment — tell us about your health and we'll choose a safe technique or suggest another date.

For your first visit to Tera Thai, arrive 5–10 minutes early. We start with a quiet welcome and a short conversation: any discomfort, contraindications, preferred pressure. Before the massage there's a brief foot-washing ceremony. For Thai massage you'll receive comfortable clothing; for oil massage, towels and a private changing area. After the treatment there's a moment of rest with warm tea, and you can take a shower. No rush — take as much time as you need. We've described the full first-visit experience step by step in a separate guide.

Of course — everyone is welcome at Tera Thai. Our therapists work with both women and men every day; the technique and pressure are always tailored during a short consultation before the treatment.

Every Tera Thai guest gets fresh linens and towels, a foot-washing ceremony precedes each massage, and an on-site shower is available before and after the treatment. These are standing standards in both salons — described in full on the About us page.
