What do you mean, no barefoot gifts?

No one accepts the barefoot ceremony, which means:

Buddhism believes that the foot is the most humble position of the body and is unclean. It's very impolite to point your foot at others in Thailand. Thais believe that massage on others is a very serious matter, and massage itself is a kind of physical and mental purification, so foot massage is a ritual of cleaning the body. Not only do you need foot massage, but regular masseurs also need to make a short prayer before starting massage.

In fact, this process has been simplified. If it is a Thai royal massage, you need to take a bath, change clothes and burn incense first.
