Massage Khiếm Thị Brendan Spa
Hanoi
Beoordelingen
One of the best, most detailed massages I’ve ever had. They take care and time. A very worthy cause to get behind and they all have a very good grasp of English- even the massage therapists!
It was my first massage so maybe I won't be objective. However, it seems to me that the masseuse had a lot of knowledge and skills, as well as very strong hands and fingers. The place is very professional and in fact the entrance does not look very inviting but then you go to the upper floors and you are greeted by clean and fragrant rooms. The whole service is very professional and if I had such a place next to my house, I would go every day.
I was in hanoi for a month and this was the place to go a few times a week. I have had massages around SE Asia, but this is one of the best. I tried the Brendan massage and traditional Vietnamese massage, each 90 minutes. Brendan has (very) hot stones and oil, which they pat you down with a towel afterwards, costing 350,000d; and Vietnamese massage was more firmer acupressure, costing 300,000d. I tipped 50,000d each time. The service was fab - on entering, they asked me to wait in the reception area whilst they got a bed prepared upstairs. They also asked what gender of masseur I preferred. There are toilets on each level. Typical SE Asian massage place - it’s AC’ed and comfortable with blanket if needed, each bed is separated by a curtain but you may be next to another pair. Each bed has a hole for your head if lying on your front. The masseur (I asked for Phu each time) is very skilled with pressure. He asked if there was an area to focus pressure on. I normally have to ask them to be lighter on my calf’s, but stronger on my back, but there was no need, as i suspect they could feel me flinching if too strong. Phu could feel knots and would focus on these areas instinctively. A top recommendation masseur parlour. Professional.
This was such a cool experience for me. Definitely the best massage I’ve gotten in Vietnam. The rooms are semi-private like others said if you are okay with that but all the workers were very kind and spoke English. I got the Brendan massage and I definitely noticed the skill and touch difference in the massage. Not only was the pressure actually firm + strong but I could tell the masseuse had very good palpation skills and could feel any little knot that I had. Very very intuitive and precise 1000% recommend.
If you are visiting Hanoi and want a meaningful, relaxing, and truly therapeutic massage experience, I highly recommend Massage Khiếm Thị Brendan Spa – Tẩm Quất Người Mù Brendan Spa. This place is known not only for the talent of its visually-impaired therapists but also for the warm, genuine care they offer to every guest. I opted for the 90-minute Brendan Care Massage, and it was one of the most rewarding wellness experiences I’ve had in Vietnam. The staff welcomed me with kindness, explained the session clearly, and made sure I felt at ease from the beginning. The spa itself is simple, clean, and peaceful—no unnecessary luxury, but filled with sincerity and positive energy. One thing to note is that the massage takes place in a semi-private area. It’s partitioned enough to give you comfort and personal space, but not completely enclosed like a private room. I personally found it absolutely fine, and the atmosphere remained quiet and calm throughout the session. The massage itself was exceptional. The therapist had incredible intuition, finding every area of tension and applying exactly the right pressure. The flow was smooth and consistent, and within minutes I could feel stress releasing from my shoulders, back, and legs. The balance between strong therapeutic technique and gentle touch made the entire 90-minute session deeply relaxing and genuinely healing. By the end, my body felt lighter, my muscles more open, and my mind completely refreshed. It wasn’t just a massage—it felt like a full physical and emotional reset. Supporting Brendan Spa means supporting a community of skilled visually-impaired therapists who put their heart into their craft. I would definitely return and highly recommend the 90-minute Brendan Care Massage to anyone looking for a memorable, impactful, and rejuvenating experience in Hanoi.
