With a broad variety of treatments from all over the world, we have something to offer for everybody. We provide bathrobes, towels, slippers, and clothes for the Thai massage at no additional cost with every treatment.
In addition to our single-bed massage rooms with their own showers and calming lighting, there are also two VIP areas with two massage beds for those who prefer to be pampered in tandem. After your treatment, you can unwind even further while enjoying fresh exotic fruit, oriental teas and exceptional fruit juices.For even more relaxation, our massages can be combined with our ‚room of hot stones’ – the tepidarium – and/or a bath in our jacuzzi.
You can buy the exclusive organic cosmetic products by Santaverde which we use for our Green Spa face massages at our reception area, along with Thai spa products by Lanna. If you liked our massage oils, we will gladly advise you on how to mix your own. The oils you need can also be purchased from us.
About us
Our massage and health center in the heart of Vienna
Opened in February 2008, the Shofah Spa in the 9th district is the perfect destination for those who want to be pampered in elegant surroundings with a distinct Thai flair.
We focus on traditional Thai and exclusive aromatherapy massages, both of which enjoy a high status as therapeutic treatments in their native Thailand, and are increasingly used as an alternative treatment for chronic problems with the musculoskeletal system in Europe as well.
Customer service is our key priority, and our broad variety of treatments from both western and eastern traditions doesn’t always make the choice easy. Our trained massage therapists will make sure you have a pleasant experience you won’t forget any time soon.
All of our therapists are trained in classical massage and have additional diplomas in Thai massage. Their training follows the guidelines of the Aromavera spa academy led by Dr Paiboon Pilun-owad, president of the Thai Spa Federation in Bangkok.
Shofah spa@work
we make you „hyggelig“
For a company to be successful, the people who work there have to be happy. This is not a new idea – why, then, is it so difficult to achieve proper work-life balance?
The key is „hygge“, derived from the old Germanic „hyggja“ – a word describing the ability to find joy in small things and arrive at a sense of well-being and contentedness.
Our work environments could be a lot more relaxed.
Why not meet others at eye level and care about their interests?
Offers like flexible hours, child care, fitness and nutrition programs or even massages at the workplace help your employees to truly be at their best.
ShofahSpa@work offers two different plans to employers
Restorative short massages at the place of work
Spa programs in a room provided for that purpose at the place of work
Depending on your wants and needs, we can also offer you combinations of the two plans.
Your company can get in touch with us at office@shofah.at
We’d be happy to hear from you!

ANMA
The original form of today’s Shiatsu
Our Anma specialist is Reynaldo Luciano Guilherme Sabato. He’s not only a spa therapist, but also a professional dancer – at the Vienna State Opera, among others.
Anma
60 Min €79,- / 90 Min €105,-
The Anma massage originates in China. Around 710-790 CE, it spread to Japan, together with other aspects of traditional Chinese medicine, where it was practiced exclusively in state hospitals at first.
As a specialised form of massage, Anma was founded in 1320 CE by Akashi Kan Ichi in Japan, where it is still practiced independently of Shiatsu. Its practicioners are certified by the health department of their local prefecture.
A particularly interesting fact of Anma as a massage form is its connection with blind people. There are several schools teaching Anma to blind people in particular – founded by Sugiyama, a blind man himself. This tradition carries on today, where many members of Japan’s community of blind people still work as Anma therapists.
As a form of massage, Anma has a particular focus on kneading, rubbing and tapping techniques, primarily following the body’s energy lines. It’s a relatively strong massage, using individualized hand movements to increase the blood flow towards the muscles and deep tissues. It also incorporates techniques from the field of acupressure. Anma is performed without massage oils. Instead, you’ll wear comfortable cotton clothes provided by us.
It can help with
help to relieve social or work-related stress, as well as the resulting tensions and blockages
help with sleep issues, nervousness and unrest
promote healthy breathing, digestion and circulation
relieve musculoskeletal problems
relieve menstrual or menopausal discomfort

Yoga styles Hatha Yoga and Yin Yoga are offered at Shofah Spa. Hatha Yoga is the umbrella term for body-based yoga and thus the most widespread type of yoga in the West. In Hatha Yoga classes, classical yoga postures are combined with breathing exercises. Hatha Yoga is suitable for all ages and all levels, also and especially well for beginners, as the yoga postures can be adapted as desired.
A class begins with breathing exercises, then the body is warmed up and afterwards the yoga asanas (postures) strengthen and tone the muscles. This gives a better feeling for the body, mobilises the spine in all its directions of rotation and releases tension and blockages. The class then ends more slowly again, with a short final relaxation. Body and mind are strengthened and then relaxed.
Yin Yoga is a quiet style of yoga in which the majority of the yoga postures are performed in a sitting, kneeling or lying position. The positions are held for between 2 and 5 minutes without exercising the muscles. By staying longer in the positions - without active muscle power - and thanks to the force of gravity acting on the body, deeper tissue layers could be reached, more precisely the fascial connective tissue, especially the joints. Clogged and matted fasciae are thus loosened, which in the long term can combat chronic tension and increase flexibility in the body. Yin Yoga is oriented towards the meridians (TCM) and stretches along these energy lines. This adapts the exercise sequences not only to physical needs, but also to the seasons and seasonal needs. Due to the long, passive positions, Yin Yoga has a stress-reducing and regenerating effect on a mental level.
Benefits and effects of yoga

Strengthening of the muscles & better blood circulation
Improvement of strength, flexibility & mobility

better body awareness
stress reduction & deceleration
Nikoleta now teaches only slow, yet effective and regenerating styles of yoga, Yin Yoga and Hatha Yoga, in German and English. She has over 1000 hours of yoga and meditation training.
She also attends workshops with various yoga teachers to learn about different styles and approaches and to integrate them into her teaching.
She is an Ayurvedic Nutritionist and trains in Ayurvedic Nutrition and Health, as she believes in a holistic approach (which is also necessary through nutrition and health prevention) to keep body and mind fit, flexible, strong, balanced and relaxed.
In her yoga classes, Nikoleta emphasises that people enjoy movement and the mental and physical engagement with themselves. Teaching basic anatomical knowledge for a safe and individualised execution of the asanas is particularly important to her, as people and bodies are different. In her yoga classes, there is therefore no "one exercise fits all" principle, but enough options are presented so that people can practise what their own physical and mental limits allow from the wide range of yoga.
