A zebra can't change it's stripes
[QUOTE=PurpleMoon; 1309557]The inevitable has delightfully occured last week with Lily quitting and moving on to greener pastures.
So, for anyone staying away from WW for whatever reasons, they can now feel free to come back and rest assured.
That I no longer have any interest or care for it. Jessica and Lulu, and perhaps a new masseuse in the near future will prevail in their style.
However, anyone perusing the latest CL will undoubtedly (eventually) learn of a new spa nearby WW, and if
Inclined to visit, will discover what Lily and her new friends are up to there.
But, be forewarned that this new place is far different than her former site. What occured in the past will not be repeated here.
They have had a modest draw in these first four days of grand opening, and the future looks bright!
The facility is far more professional, organized and managed better, cleaner, and just generally nicer, classier, and more comfortable.
The person who answers the phone speaks very good english.
I have no involvement in this venture, nor feel I need to, as I approve of it, unlike WW.
I feel this is a much better fit for my wife Lily, and her new friends, one that will showcase their unique style.
I hope some of you eventually try it and report here. Thanks, Purple.[/QUOTE]Dude, if you're self-righteous butt ever knew exactly what your wife in those rooms you would keep quiet. New place. Big deal. It's just like putting lipstick on a pig. They still smell the same.
Body Zen Waltham Is a Nice Splurge, and Good Value
Nicely decored store in professional medical building, easy on and off route 95. Used to be called different names from Lee's to May, and Green Spa etc. Been around since 2007. Very clean, staff friendly and hospitable. Easy to find and plenty of parking. Located on second floor, walk ins were okay. They do suggest advance calls though.
Two providers, Jennifer, petite. 40's, cute, and Ginger, taller, plainish 30's, both Chinese. Others rotate in from sister store, and they told me that they were Lilly, Ting-Ting, and Mary, and I might have forgot one other.
Chinese classical music pumped into rooms via central stereo system, not too loud or distracting, just right. Rooms smallish, and had a comfy feeling to it. Door stayed closed the entire time of my visit, no phone calls or distractions, which was great. Plenty of hooks for clothes, mirror, individual climate control etc. Table was extra strong for larger folks and has expandable head rest for taller folks (slides outwards a few more inches.) Bathroom adequate.
Sixty dollars for full hour and ten tip to Jennifer. She seemed pleased. I don't think they focus so much on the tips at this place or others like it as the Mamasans pay them a higher percent of the house fee I'm told, which is where they make their money, unlike other "extras" places where it is the opposite. Massage was excellent and thorough. One can tell she has real skills. A lot of climbing up on table and some back walking. No finish, not that type of place, and don't go if you think you can persuade otherwise, just won't work. They have a routine and stick with it. Sister store on Trapelo Road in Belmont, and both advertise on CL for more info. They also do foot massages, and have a diverse massage style menu.
Water and candy and lots of thank you's, and hug on exit. Will repeat. Looks a 6, massage a 10, hospitality a 10, Location, and parking a 10. Recommended.

Was downtown today and found a new place while dropping off a watch for repair. Looks brand new and they seem to offer a good deal. Anyone know anything about this place? I did not have time but will check it next time I go to Boston.

9 Cottage in the City of Presidents
For several years, the reports from here have been 'strictly legit' and a good massage. I went recently and saw Blair, maybe 20's, pretty cute, thin but maybe too tall for a spinner type. Nice personality, and pretty good English. One hr foot rub for 45, or 1/2 hr foot and 1/2 hr back for 50. I went for the 45. Surprisingly good. The masseuse and her technique were excellent. The rooms are smallish with curtains for doors and you do sit in the ante room for the foot massage, but it's appointment only, and Blair doesn't answer the phone so it is relaxing and private. To get a consistently good massage in the metro Boston area for a good price is a crap shoot, but for 45 and no clock watching for a really good rub, I will be back. I go for value.
