There are countless places in Taipei that offer comfort through different massage methods — typical services include foot massage, shiatsu, massage with oils — at varying price points.
For a more stylish, clean, and comfortable environment, visit Taiwanese style massage place Relaxing Trip by Fujintree. For travelers seeking who seek complete and utter relaxation, go to Nuance Privee where they also offer hairdressing and mani-pedi services. For a massage at any hour of the day, go to Dancing Finger Massage and Six Star Foot Massage, which both also offer gua sha massage and cupping glass therapy.
You can also find less glamorous but reasonably priced blind massage stands at MRT stations or underground street entrances, such as Ahgan Massage, which are good options when it comes to quick but effective alleviation.
