Buathongchan Thai Massage is the first ever Thai massage shop I came across when I first explored Gent. The name stuck with me, and I aways promised myself that if I get a high score on my exam I could treat myself to a massage, just as I would back home in Thailand.

It is located right in the city centre near Vrijdagmarkt, it is easy to reach by foot, bike, or public transport, which makes it very convenient for both students and locals.
Buathongchan is run by professionals who are trained in traditional Thai massage techniques. They offer a range of treatments, including classic Thai massage, oil relaxation, hot stone therapy, and even prenatal care. The setting is peaceful and calming, which makes it a great place for those looking to unwind or take care of their body in a natural and traditional way.
Even though I have not personally had a massage there, I appreciate what Buathongchan brings to the Thai community in Ghent and to anyone curious about Thai culture. It is not just a place for physical relief but also a small reminder of the values behind Thai wellness: balance, care, and respect.
For anyone in Ghent who is looking to experience Thai massage in a professional and welcoming environment, Buathongchan seems like a meaningful place to start.
