    I have been working there for a couple of months, and can share with you the cost. But not the body to body type. Generally, it is about 200baht to 800 baht. Generally, those further away from the city is cheaper. But generally, they are very simple set up. Some spa type of establishment may cost something between 1200baht to 2500baht. But in those places, it is more than just massage, there is shower, sauna, some come with swimming pool, and body scrape. In Thailand, oil massage is not a common standard as in China and Indonesia. Oil massage cost more in Thailand, and not as good as in Indonesia or China. Thai massage is basically for sports person, like the boxer. It is normally done befroe the fight, and the massage aim to relax the boxer. So it is not so comfortable if you are not into sports. Oil massage, for thai, it is often done with some 'extra' service. Not so good actually. China have cheaper massage service (compare to the type of service and establishment), cost about 120 to 250 RMB for 2 to 3 hours. (8 pound to 18 pound) And generally in better establishment than in Bangkok. Generally in spa type of set up. One more unique service in China is, they can wash, dry and iron the clothing for you while you are on the bed. If you comes after mid-night, you can to sleep free on the same bed till the next morning. In Indonesia, it is about 50,000rp to 400,000rp. (3pound to 25pound) depend on the type of establishment. Generally those in high range are spa type of set up. 200 baht is about 3 pound. So, don't get fool by some who claim that Thai has good and cheap massage. They do have, but others has better.
