I'm a yogi instructor and a Reiki master. I've received a Thai massage from Vivian and from the moment she did her first press, I knew she was really skilled. She's got this incredible energy and a healing force behind her and you feel it the moment she massages you. Because of this, I opted to take a Thai Massage workshop offered at Bodhi Thai Massage. Not only is Vivian gifted in her massage skills, she has also got incredible teaching skills. She is very detailed oriented and very clear in her instructions. She is also astute and very present such that she is able to correct mistakes made by students. Not sure how she does it, but she is direct, yet kind and patient so you don't feel bad about making mistakes, rather you feel encouraged to improve. Rare to find a teacher with those qualities. I'll be back for more.

I had the pleasure of being a client during a workshop with the students. I like deep tissue and Under careful instruction by Vivian, I found the students to be knowledgeable and the massage very satisfying. Vivian ensures that the students learn not to miss a thing. It was also a fun but relaxing experience. I would recommend this massage to anyone.

I booked a massage during my visit in Vancouver, without any special expectations. I have several things going on in my back and met just a few massage therapists who knew their job. But i really loved this place. Great atmosphere. And the treatment was really, really intense and good! Made my back fell as good as it hasn't felt in a long time. Highly recommend this place!

I have had massage therapy about once a month for the past 20+ years. Good massage therapists are hard to come by; most have little idea what they are doing. I think I have encountered probably over 100 therapists out of whom 3 are outstanding, and Vivian is one of them. She is attentive and focuses on sore spots and knots and is able to generate great pressure which a lot of therapists can't or don't care to. Vivian is very professional and clearly has tremendous experience in her field. I highly recommend her to anyone in search of an outstanding therapeutic massage!

Incredible! Called in for some advice and council to some issues I was experiencing. Pain, tension, stress, fatigue and depression. I was greeted by Vivian over the telephone who courteously listened to my troubles and suggested a therapy based on what I was feeling. When I arrived to my appointment the room was clean, music was soft and very calming and cozy. Vivian was very polite and professional. She explained what we spoke about over the phone and kept attentive to the areas in which I was concerned. The massage was a BLISS! Vivian kept great pressure the whole time and really helped me breathe deep while in my stretches! By the end of my session I could not even open my eyes and sit up straight. My body just needed to sit back and relax. Vivian did not rush me. Instead, she offered me some water and spoke to me as I was going through my experience. I felt so ALIVE and Rejuvenated! I know, that something changed from that day forward as many good things have happened since~ It was definitely worth the experience! I would like to come back again perhaps, even visit her space in Montreal. I look forward to my next meeting with Vivian and hopefully Kit! Would definitely recommend!

I consider myself a massage lover. With that being said, I am addicted to the stretching and pressure massage offers. I received a massage from Vivian who gave me a Thai massage. Not only was her massage etiquette on-point but she is so sweet and strong. She's studied in Thailand and really knows her stuff. I suffer from neck, shoulder pain due to surgeries and injuries, after she treated me, I feel so free of pain and a great range of motion. I love Thai massage because of the use of masseuse's feet and arms. Vivian stretched me and positioned my body with care in order to reach those deep points. Needless to say, I'm super impressed! Bodhi Thai Massage is clean, peaceful & very professional. Thank you Vivian.

This massage was really amazing! I never had a massage of any kind before so going there I was nervous in terms of what to expect. The studio was a relaxing environment. Vivian started with a thorough examination to find out what parts of my body needed attention and what kind of pressure to apply. The combination of massage, stretching and acupressure was very relaxing and therapeutic. Vivian knows what she is doing, she is nice to talk to and she is very professional. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a massage. And I will definitely go again. Thanks!

I’m a Registered Acupuncturist in Vancouver with over 14 years experience. I’m really happy to have found Bodhi Thai Massage in Vancouver. I’ve been to Thailand many times and I find Thai massage to be very therapeutic. Not only does Thai massage work on the whole body and touch upon important meridian lines to release blocked energy, it also incorporates various massage techniques - from acupressure, reflexology to trigger point therapy - to relax the body and employs the use of stretching to open up the body to increase flexibility and mobility. Vivian is an excellent Thai masseuse and I found her to be better than the practitioners I encountered at the top spas in the 5 star hotels in Thailand. She is very gifted with intuition and that is evident in her massages. She knows how to apply appropriate pressure and she massages the right points - I highly recommend her. In closing, acupuncture helps with many ailments, but often to maintain good health, a various combination of treatment therapy is required … and Thai massage is one to be included! Here’s to good health to all!

My husband first went to Bodhi Thai Massage. He loved his experience so much that he highly recommended me to try Thai Massage and even bought me a package of 10 treatments from Bodhi. I often get massages at different places but I’m really glad my husband found Bodhi Thai Massage. My feeling is that Vivian is very professional. She is also very intuitive. She knows where my pain areas are and uses very good pressure. Since I’m recovering from hip surgery, I’ve found that Vivian has been able to help me in my recovery as I’ve seen definite improvements in my mobility and flexibility as a result of having Thai Massage. My muscles are also more relaxed and I feel I have better circulation down to my legs. I truly find Thai Massage very unique, helpful and therapeutic in helping me improve my overall health. I highly recommend Vivian and Bodhi Thai Massage. It is a must try for sure!

I really enjoyed the Thai massage I received from Vivian! The pressure was perfect and she made sure to check in with me every so often to see how I felt. She was able to focus more on certain areas that were bothering me like my upper neck and low back, but the massage was still very thorough and didn't feel rushed. After the massage my muscles felt warm and relaxed, and weren't nearly as sore as when I first came in. I will definitely be going back soon for another one!
