What's your favorite activities when you're in foreign country. Shopping? Trying local cuisine? Visiting historical ruins? How about taking massage? Here is the price list in Asia. Let’s find the cheapest country and enjoy massage as much as you want.
Indonesia and Thailand are one of the best place to take massage. It costs less than 10 USD for 1 hour. I don’t recommend Japan. It's about 75 USD. It's not a Spa, just a ordinary massage shop.

Note: Don't take massage too much. It can hurt you sometime. In Vietnam, I took reflexology 3 times a day then we got terrible pain on my foots in the next morning!
Note: Don't take massage when you're tired. It could hurt you sometime. In China, I took reflexology at 4am after 1 hour sleep. In the shop, I ate water melon and drunk coke in cold room due to too strong air conditioner. Right after the massage finished, we got terrible diarrhea!
