"Gigi is a wizard. I've gotten a few Thai massages before, but this was the best one by far. I was genuinely blown away with how great I felt afterwards. Highly recommend!"

"Easily one of the best massages of my life. Gigi's technique is unique, and his energy is exceptional. Days later, I'm still feeling amazing."

"The massage was truly 10/10. He gently guided me to breathe from my diaphragm in rhythm with the massage. I left feeling relaxed, open, energized, and completely reset."

Traditional Deep Tissue Thai Massage in the Heart of Santa Teresa.

This is not the type of massage you'd get at a spa. There's no oil or table. It's a much more complete, restorative experience — like visiting your massage therapist, chiropractor, and yoga instructor all in one session.

  • Deep Tissue & Fascial Release

    Targeted pressure that reaches the deep layers of muscle and fascia where tension actually lives.

  • Stretching & Joint Mobilization

    Passive yoga positions and joint manipulation that restore mobility and elasticity — perfect after days of surfing.

  • Trigger Point Therapy

    Precise work on muscle knots and trigger points that releases chronic tension and pain patterns.

Thai Massage Is the Ultimate Choice for Surfers, Yogis, and Everyone in Between.

At Santa Teresa Thai Massage, we specialize in Thai massages specifically designed for surfers and sport lovers. Thai massage is the best bodywork for surfers because it works on the areas that bear the brunt of the waves — neck, shoulders, hips, and lower back — with a blend of specific stretching and manipulations of joints, muscles, and fascia.

This not only results in a rapid recovery but also supports and improves your surfing style by enhancing joint mobility and muscle elasticity.

Gigi - Certified Thai Massage Therapist in Santa Teresa

Ciao, I'm Gigi.

Originally from Rome, I'm a certified Thai massage teacher and therapist who moved to Costa Rica to do what I love every single day. I trained at the International Training Massage School in Thailand and founded Santa Teresa Thai Massage shortly after arriving in Costa Rica. Since then, I've had the honor of working with hundreds of clients from around the world.

Every session starts with a conversation. I want to understand your body — where you're holding tension, what your activity looks like, what you need. Then I tailor everything to you. No two sessions are the same.

Whether you're a surfer dealing with tight shoulders, an athlete recovering from training, or someone who just wants to feel incredible in their body again — this is for you.

Say Hello to Gigi

A Jungle Setting Like No Other

Your session takes place on a beautiful open-air platform overlooking the jungle. The atmosphere, the sounds, the breeze — it's all part of the healing.
