About Sinchai Sukparset
Ajarn Sinchai Sukparset is a blind Thai massage master in Chiang Mai, known as 'the Blind Professor'. He graduated in 1969 from the Blind School of Lersin Hospital in Bangkok. He then worked for 37 years in the physical therapy department of Suan Dok Hospital (Chiang Mai University Hospital), specialising in paralysis and stroke rehabilitation. Trained in traditional Thai massage, he devotes his practice to modern medical conditions such as stroke recovery, chronic pain, whiplash, back problems, nerve entrapment and post-surgical issues, often adding therapeutic exercises. His style is described as uniquely gentle yet effective, and he is regarded by locals and the medical community as one of Chiang Mai's most experienced therapeutic massage practitioners. He now treats clients from his home in the Pa Daet area of Chiang Mai during the day and teaches all classes himself in the evening, with beginners and advanced therapists training together.
