A tragic incident that occurred in world-famous Thai massage parlors once again highlighted the importance of expert supervision in massage therapy. A young woman who chose a massage parlor instead of a doctor for her neck pain complaint lost her life due to a herniated disc. After the first session, the woman noticed that her pain had increased, which she considered a normal side effect of the massage, and she decided to continue the treatment. However, her condition worsened over time. Numbness began in her hands and then in her right leg. Eventually, the entire right side of her body became completely numb. As a result of incorrect practices, the young woman's neck pain intensified, leading her to enter a coma and ultimately pass away. An investigation revealed that the woman had a herniated disc and that the massages performed by unqualified individuals caused her death. This tragic event served as a reminder that alternative treatment methods must be applied under expert supervision and with a doctor's recommendation.
