Ministry of Public Health prepares for major event to push "Thai Massage" as a global wellness hub
The Ministry of Public Health is preparing to elevate Thai wisdom to the global stage by organizing the "NATIONAL NUAD THAI AND WELLNESS EXPO 2026," a first for Thailand, to fully propel the country toward becoming a Global Wellness Hub.
The event will be held from August 20th to 22nd at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center. It will bring together top-tier, highly skilled Thai massage therapists from across the country, as well as experts in local wisdom, to share their knowledge and provide various forms of Thai massage to showcase the potential of the science of Thai massage to the world.
Beyond promoting health, this event aims to stimulate the economy through the wellness industry, which is growing rapidly worldwide. Hosting this event is considered a significant opportunity to connect Thai wisdom with international standards, in order to generate revenue and attract more tourists to utilize health services in Thailand.
Those interested can attend the event to experience authentic Thai massage and learn about natural approaches to health care. This serves as a way to support entrepreneurs and Thai massage therapists by providing a platform to demonstrate their skills and build the nation's reputation on an international level.
