Industry : Science

Panya Thai Traditional Medicine Clinic specialises in authentic Thai massage treatments that combine local herbal remedies with time-honoured healing techniques. Founded by Sombat Traisrisilp, the clinic is part of a broader mission that includes the Panya Thai Development School, an educational institution dedicated to preserving and passing on the knowledge of traditional Thai medicine through courses in general medicine, pharmacy, midwifery, and massage.

His goal is to build trust in traditional practices, showing that they can be understood scientifically. To achieve this, he employs diverse research methods and spearheaded the development of “Five Roots Medicine,” a local herbal remedy selected for in-depth study. This initiative led to Thailand’s first spray-dried herbal extract, officially certified by the Food and Drug Administration. Through these efforts, he is advancing the credibility of traditional Thai medicine and promoting its global recognition, supporting individual well-being while encouraging broader acceptance and understanding of holistic healing traditions.
