Guide to Gay Massage Shops and Spas
Massage for men by men – 2025
In Chiang Mai, shops where one can enjoy a gay massage with a male masseur (AKA a massage with a Happy Ending or a Rub and Tug!) were plentiful. M2M or Male to Male Massage shops were spread all over town and were one of the most popular attractions for gay visitors. In recent years, and particularly as a result of covid, many of the older shops have closed down. Also, the powers that be have been clamping down on places offering “extra services”, which in turn results in higher costs for them in doing business. However, post covid a number of new shops have opened across town with exclusively, or predominantly male masseurs, that identify as “LGBT friendly”. We can’t guarantee what you will find at the places we have listed but you should at least expect a decent massage from a handsome massage boy. Note also, Chiang Mai has many, many massage services, we only list those likely to be of interest to gay male customers.
Note: – we advise you to call and check they are open, and provides the services you require before visiting anywhere
