Company Details

Established in 2013 by Krit "Chris" Panichpisal, Viyada Thai Spa is Boston's first authentic Thai massage and spa center. Chris, a native of Bangkok, Thailand, brought his deep-rooted passion for traditional Thai wellness practices to the United States, aiming to share the therapeutic benefits of Thai massage with a broader audience.

Over the years, Viyada Thai Spa has garnered recognition for its exceptional services, including being awarded Boston Magazine's "Best of Boston" in 2018. The spa offers a serene environment where clients can experience a blend of Eastern and Western therapies, delivered by highly qualified therapists trained in authentic Thai techniques.

In 2015, to further promote Thai wellness education, Chris founded the Viyada Thai Massage School. The school provides comprehensive training programs for those interested in learning both basic and advanced Thai massage techniques, under the guidance of native Thai instructors.

Today, Viyada Thai Spa offers franchise opportunities to individuals passionate about wellness and sharing the benefits of traditional Thai massage. Franchisees are supported with comprehensive training, guidance on spa operations, and tools to create an authentic and memorable experience for their communities.
