Does Relax Village Spa do Thai massage?

No. They specialise in authentic Indonesian massage, performed entirely by hand. A reviewer noted this differs from Thai massage, which uses elbows.

Will my 2-hour session actually be 2 hours?

Yes. Reviewers specifically praised the shop for honouring full session time without shortening it to cheat customers, a common practice elsewhere in Penang.

Not yet. One reviewer requested this, suggesting cash is currently the only payment method.

Reunited Health Reflexology

Most recent visits highlight warm, patient staff in a pleasant space with targeted massage work at fair rates. However, several longer-standing complaints point to inconsistent therapist training, hygiene oversights like skipping leg washes or hand cleaning between areas, and difficulty adjusting pressure when asked. The business's willingness to address recurring feedback appears limited.
