Neck and shoulder massage Saigon: where to go, hours and prices (Q&A)

Tong Gia team · Lương Y Tống Văn Huynh · 2026-10-22

If you are in Saigon and your neck has seized up after a long flight or a week of laptop work, Tong Gia Acupoint Wellness offers a dedicated neck and shoulder session at 225 Duong Thi Muoi Street, District 12 (8:00 to 19:00 daily) and at Unit T16-21, The Manhattan, Vinhomes Grand Park, Thu Duc City (9:00 to 20:00 daily). That focused session costs 550,000 VND (about 21 USD) for 60 minutes or 750,000 VND (about 29 USD) for 90 minutes, and a gentler head spa with neck and shoulder massage is 250,000 VND (about 10 USD).

This Q&A is for travellers, business visitors and expats new to Vietnamese acupoint massage. Full service details are on our neck and shoulder massage page.

Which branch is easier to reach from where I am staying?

Saigon is spread out, so pick the branch by direction rather than by name.

• District 12 branch: 225 Duong Thi Muoi Street, Tan Chanh Hiep Ward. It is north of Tan Binh (the airport district), near Go Vap and Hoc Mon. Google rating 4.9★ from 234 reviews. Directions on Google Maps.
• Vinhomes Grand Park branch: Unit T16-21, The Manhattan, Long Binh Ward, Thu Duc City (formerly District 9). Convenient for the eastern side of the city and Long Thanh My. Google rating 5.0★ from 183 reviews. Directions on Google Maps.

Both branches charge the same retail prices.

Can I come straight from the airport or a late meeting?

District 12 opens earliest, at 8:00, which works if you land on an overnight flight and want to loosen up before checking in. Vinhomes Grand Park stays open until 20:00, the later option after a working day. The session needs to finish before closing, so for a 60-minute booking aim to start at least an hour before that time, and earlier for 90 minutes.

How much will it cost?

These are single-session retail prices. Payment is in VND; USD figures are rough guides only. The full list is on the prices page.

• Neck & shoulder session, 60 min: 550,000 VND (about 21 USD)
• Neck & shoulder session, 90 min: 750,000 VND (about 29 USD)
• Head spa + neck and shoulder massage, 60 min: 250,000 VND (about 10 USD)
• Add-on area massage, 30 min: 199,000 VND (about 8 USD)

For a stiff neck from a cramped seat, 60 minutes is usually enough. If laptop hunching has also knotted the area between your shoulder blades, choose 90.

I don’t speak Vietnamese. What should I tell the technician?

Short phrases work better than long explanations. Show them on your phone or say them slowly:

• Where it hurts most: “left side of neck”, “between shoulder blades”, “base of skull”.
• What caused it: “long flight”, “laptop all day”, “slept badly in hotel”.
• Pressure: “softer please” or “stronger is OK”. The technician will check with you throughout anyway.
• Anything to avoid: a recent injury, surgery, or pregnancy.

Pointing at the tight spot works too.

What actually happens during the session?

The method follows the approach of the founder, Lương Y Tống Văn Huynh, a traditional Vietnamese wellness master. It starts with observation: how you hold your head, whether one shoulder sits higher, how your upper spine curves. Lying face down, you will feel the technician trace along the spine to locate the knots rather than working evenly everywhere. Then come firm presses at the base of the neck, kneading across the tops of the shoulders, and long strokes outward along the shoulder blades. A warm herbal compress and a foot soak close the session.

A dull ache on tight points is normal; sharp pain is not, so speak up.

Is there anything I should check first?

If your neck pain came with numbness or tingling down an arm, dizziness, a fever, or followed a fall or traffic accident, see a licensed physician before booking a massage. The session is for relaxing tight muscles, not a substitute for a proper check-up.

FAQ

How much is a neck and shoulder massage in Saigon at Tong Gia? A dedicated 60-minute neck and shoulder session is 550,000 VND (about 21 USD) and 90 minutes is 750,000 VND (about 29 USD). The lighter head spa with neck and shoulder massage costs 250,000 VND (about 10 USD) for 60 minutes.

Do I need to undress? For a neck and shoulder session you only need to expose the neck, shoulders and upper back. Wear a loose top so it is easy to adjust, and tell staff if you would like a cover or towel arranged differently.

Is it a good idea right after a long-haul flight? Many travellers find it helps them unwind, but eat lightly and drink water first. If you feel faint or unwell after the flight, rest and postpone the session.

Can two of us book at the same time? Yes. Mention the number of people in your WhatsApp or Zalo message so staff can arrange technicians for the same slot.
