Providing warmth, understanding, and a caring presence during every session to ensure clients feel valued and supported.
The Malaysian Skills Certificate (Sijil Kemahiran Malaysia - SKM) is an official national certification issued by the Department of Skills Development (Jabatan Pembangunan Kemahiran - JPK) under the Ministry of Human Resources Malaysia. This certificate recognises that an individual has undergone structured training and assessment in a specific field — in our case, massage therapy and wellness services — and has met the national standards for skills, safety, and professionalism.
All our therapists are trained in accordance with the official guidelines set by the Ministry of Health Malaysia. Our organisation is recognised under PT&K (Traditional and Complementary Medicine Division), ensuring that every treatment follows approved safety standards, ethical practices, and certified techniques. This recognition reflects our commitment to delivering safe, trustworthy, and professional Thai therapy that aligns with national healthcare policies.
Every therapist in our team receives direct guidance and practical training from Saowanee Panthong, the founder of our company and a double gold medalist at the Southeast Asia International Massage Championship. Her mentorship ensures that each therapist not only masters authentic Thai techniques but also upholds the highest standards in care, ethics, and problem-solving therapy. Under her leadership, our team delivers treatments rooted in skill, experience, and international excellence.
Saowanee is a certified therapist under the Ministry of Public Health Thailand and has trained with respected Thai masters before developing her own style, now known as the Alirantai Method — a flow-based therapeutic massage approach that focuses on:
Structural alignment
Energy balance
Releasing deeply embedded tension
In 2025, she was awarded 2 Gold Medals in the Southeast Asia International Massage Championship — proving that traditional massage, when done with integrity and expertise, can reach international standards.
