The team at Thai Touch is delighted that clients have voted it Tauranga's Most Trusted Massage Therapy in the 2022 Most Trusted Business Awards. And it is grateful beyond measure to clients for their support through the past three roller-coaster years.

Directors Orasa and Nigel Banks describe the last few years of operating – and what clients of Thai Touch have to look forward to in the near future.

'In 2020 customers surged back in numbers that we had no right to expect after each lockdown. You touched, puzzled, humbled and delighted us every time!

'In 2021 our access to new therapists shrank to zero as borders remained closed. Team members trained as therapists over several months to help meet customer demand.

'In 2022 Thai Touch breathed New Zealand's biggest post-pandemic sigh of relief as the borders re-opened! These past weeks, we've taken in 12 extraordinary new therapists from Thailand. Thankfully, the ‘So sorry, we're fully booked' times are finally behind us – well, most days!”

In 2023 Thai Touch will open a new studio with 14 therapy rooms near Farmers in the heart of Downtown Tauranga.

'From fall 2023, you'll be able to access more than 50 Thai Touch therapists across our three studios in Tauranga City. No matter about gloomy global forecasts, you can always progress towards your best self.

'For now, we're set to support you through a glorious summer – 9am-9pm seven days a week, apart from public holidays.

'Watch out for Christmas massage vouchers deals. Call the Mount Studio on 021 575 094 before end November.

'Thank you Tauranga for voting us your Most Trusted team of massage therapists – it means the world to us!”
