Thai massage near Hemel Hempstead
Hemel Hempstead is west of St Albans. The drive is about 15 to 20 minutes via the A4147 and the A414, a cross-town journey that finishes on Hatfield Road. Open every day from 10am to 8pm. Treatments from £70.
From Hemel Hempstead you are coming to 67 Hatfield Road, AL1 4JE, not to a second branch. The drive is about 15 to 20 minutes via the A4147 and the A414, depending on traffic. It is a cross-town journey: you pass the western side of St Albans before you reach Hatfield Road on the east.
The A4147 links Hemel Hempstead toward St Albans through the Leverstock Green side. The A414 is the other named road on this journey, and junction 8 of the M1 connects to the A414 if that is how you already leave the new town. Once you are in St Albans, continue across to Hatfield Road rather than treating the ring road, the Cathedral or St Peter’s Street as the destination.
Your sat-nav may offer more than one finish. The address to trust is 67 Hatfield Road, AL1 4JE. If you stop near the Cathedral you still have a crossing to make.
The Marlowes, the station approach and the Magic Roundabout (the Plough roundabout on the edge of the old town) are how people describe leaving Hemel Hempstead. They stay in Hemel. Use them only to get onto the A4147 or the A414 heading east.
When you reach Hatfield Road you have crossed the city. Number 67 is on that eastern approach, toward Hatfield, not beside the Abbey.
Hemel Hempstead station is on the West Coast main line, south of the new town centre. It is not a one-train trip to our door.
The practical rail combination is to ride south to Watford Junction, one stop on London Northwestern Railway, and change onto the Abbey line to St Albans Abbey. The Abbey line itself takes about 16 minutes end to end from Watford Junction. You then still need a bus, taxi or cycle from St Albans Abbey, on the western side of town, across to Hatfield Road.
That is a workable journey, but for most Hemel visitors the A4147 / A414 drive is simpler. We do not meet trains.
Once you reach 67 Hatfield Road, look first at the marked bays on Hatfield Road and the side streets beside the salon. St Albans City and District Council sets the restrictions: some stretches are limited to one hour, and other lengths of the road have permit-holder or pay-and-display rules. Read the sign on the bay you use. A one-hour bay is not a comfortable match for a 90- or 120-minute treatment.
The other parking option we already list is Morrisons supermarket at 244 Hatfield Road, St Albans AL1 4SU, further along the same road toward Fleetville. The store’s own page lists customer parking as free, with a maximum stay of three hours. Those rules belong to the supermarket and can change, so check the signs and any camera notices when you arrive. From there it is a short walk back along Hatfield Road to number 67.
Street parking near the salon can be limited to one hour. After 15 to 20 minutes on the road, and with a 90-minute booking, Morrisons is the option to use if you do not want to watch a street-bay clock.
Because you cross St Albans to reach us, it is worth booking the treatment you actually came for rather than the shortest name on the list.
Traditional Thai, Deep Tissue and the oil treatments are the core full-body list at £70 for 60 minutes, £105 for 90 minutes and £135 for 120 minutes where those times exist. Deep Tissue and Thai Hot Oil are the two treatments that offer the 120-minute calendar.
People who have spent the day driving or sitting often look at Deep Tissue or Thai Deep Mix for firmer work, or at Sports massage with the therapists who offer it. Head, Neck and Shoulder is there if you want a focused upper-body session. Hot Stone, Herbal Compress and Body Scrub are 90-minute premium treatments at £135.
Couples and 4 Hands are booked on their own pages after you check who is usually working that day. 4 Hands is listed at £140 for 60 minutes. We do not have a Hemel Hempstead room, a Saturday-only Hemel list, or different prices for people who have used the A4147.
Many people leave through Leverstock Green on the A4147. Others join the A414 from junction 8 of the M1 and stay on that road until the St Albans approaches. Both are valid; both still finish at 67 Hatfield Road, not at the first sign that says St Albans.
If you plan to use the train, remember that Hemel Hempstead station sits south of the new town centre. Getting to the station can be a short trip in itself before you even ride to Watford Junction. Factor that in if you are comparing it with a straight drive on the A4147.
Because you are crossing the city, a 90-minute booking can make the outing feel less hurried than a 60-minute one. That is a choice, not a requirement. Sixty minutes is still £70. We will not extend a session because the Magic Roundabout or the A414 was slow.
There is no Hemel price and no Hemel waiting list. The treatments page and the live calendars are the same ones everyone else uses.
First visits follow the same house rules as a local booking. Arrive a few minutes early, say if you have an injury, and remember that a late start still ends at the booked time. Call 07367 186767 if you are already on the A414 and delayed.
When you come in, tell us about any injury and the pressure you like. Traditional Thai is done in loose clothing you wear yourself; we do not ask you to change into salon clothes. For oil massages you undress to your comfort level, you stay covered with towels, and underwear stays on, with only the area being worked on uncovered. We have showers and towels. Every treatment is given on a massage table in a private room.
All clients must be 18 or over. We do not offer massage during pregnancy. Please give at least 8 hours’ notice to cancel or change a booking. Cancelling or changing with 8 or more hours’ notice is free of charge. Less notice, or a no-show, is charged in full. Choose your therapist when you book online. You do not put a name in a notes box to request someone. We accept all major debit and credit cards, including Amex, plus cash. There is a discount when you pay in cash in person. If a time is not showing, it is not available; call 07367 186767 and we will help you find another slot rather than invent one.
We are open every day from 10am to 8pm. After the treatment, the return along the A414 and A4147 is the reverse of the outward drive. If you have booked the last slot of the day, we will still close at 8pm, so arrive on time.
Call 07367 186767 if you would rather arrange the time by phone, or if you are already on the road and delayed. A late start still ends at the booked time.
About 15 to 20 minutes by car via the A4147 and A414, depending on traffic. You cross St Albans to reach Hatfield Road on the eastern side.
Hemel Hempstead station does not offer a direct service to the salon. You can change at Watford Junction onto the Abbey line to St Albans Abbey (about 16 minutes on that line) and then take a bus or taxi to 67 Hatfield Road. Most visitors drive.
Yes. Both are 90-minute treatments at £135, as is Body Scrub. Book them online and choose your therapist there.
Please give at least 8 hours’ notice. Cancelling or changing with 8 or more hours’ notice is free of charge. Less notice, or a no-show, is charged in full.
No. We close at 8pm every day, including weekends.
Choose your treatment and therapist online before you join the A414.
