Meet Cholly Saidoung

Hello, I’m Cholly Saidoung, and I believe Thai massage is not just a treat but a way to improve overall well-being. Known for offering the best Thai massage in Inverness, my goal is to help you feel better, move more easily, ease pain, and restore your body’s natural balance. I see each person as a whole—body, mind, and emotions—and use a combination of techniques to bring comfort and relaxation.

I specialise in traditional Thai massage and Gua Sha facial therapy, an ancient Chinese technique that improves circulation, releases muscle tension, and enhances skin elasticity for a naturally refreshed look.

At Cholly’s Thai Massage & Therapy, I aim to provide a welcoming and effective experience, combining traditional Thai hospitality with skilled massage techniques. Just as the body’s muscles, circulation, and nervous system work together, Thai massage helps restore flexibility, balance, and ease.

My Journey & Expertise

Bringing over a decade of refined experience, I have developed my expertise as a professional Thai massage therapist in private spas and through my own practice in Bangkok. My expertise includes traditional Thai massage, hot stone therapy massage, head massage, foot scrub and foot reflexology treatment, Thai oil massage, pregnancy massage, and Gua Sha facial massage, which helps tone and refresh the face.

Now based in Inverness, I continue to share my skills and provide treatments that help people feel their best.

What Makes My Place Unique?

Your experience begins with a warm welcome, a cozy robe and slippers, and tea or other refreshments to set the mood. Before your massage, a traditional foot-washing ritual prepares you for deep relaxation. Then, through expert Thai techniques, stress and tension melt away, bringing a sense of renewal and balance.

The relaxation doesn’t end there. After your massage, enjoy light refreshments with a hot or cold drink, giving your body time to rehydrate while you savor the tranquility.

This isn’t just a massage—it’s a retreat, a hidden gem of tranquility in the heart of Inverness, where stress fades, and relaxation takes over.

This was my fourth visit to Cholly and my first Gus Sha Facial Treatment. The facial was like exercise for your face and was amazing. Hands down the best facial I’ve ever had. ❤️

I came to Inverness after doing the Skye Trail, thus my whole body felt really sore. At that point the Thai-/Oilmassage at Cholly’s was exactly what I needed and made me feel so much better! Definitely recommend it! 👍🏼
