Chiang Mai Women's Correctional Institution (Thai: ทัณฑสถานหญิงเชียงใหม่) is a women's prison in Chiang Mai, Thailand, operated by the Department of Corrections. As of 2015[update] the warden is Arirat Thiamthong. As of the same year most inmates had committed crimes related to recreational drugs.[1]
The prison has a Thai massage training programme to help inmates adjust to the free world; members of the general public may receive massages from prisoners. Prisoners who participate in the programme can earn money from tips. A former warden's residence, Ruean Pathammarong, is used as the massage parlor.[2]
