Founded in the 90s, Thong Yee Thong (TYT) has entered its 32nd year of business and is considered one of the oldest health massage centres in Johor Bahru. In olden times, Thong Yee Thong was located in a small house and the Massage Therapists used traditional health treatment methods such as iron, scraping and cupping to relieve patient's stress. At the same time, TYT also hired Chinese medical physicians to diagnose and treat patients. In addition to providing home-style services, masseurs also set up booths at night markets to help patients by using psychological approaches inherited from ancestors and also promoting Chinese herbal medicine and massage techniques.

Around the time China and Malaysia established diplomatic relations, TYT responded to the government's call by promoting the development of Chinese culture in Malaysia. To meet the challenges of an increasing number of customers locally, TYT relocated to Johor Bahru in 1995. With years of evolution, TYT has also incorporated modern Chinese medical elements
based on traditional acupressure massage techniques, and hired more Chinese medical physicians to provide professional training for masseurs on a regular basis.
