Massage Parlor Reports

[Sounds]

If they ever ask me if it's my first time there? I always reply in negative. Though I am curious to know what others reply and why. Negative ensures me I can always say "last time we did this at this price" plus they get confidence that I am a regular monger and not first timer at their place.

I have said "yes", but added that a friend recommended I come and said would really enjoy my time. Which is true. Have intel about prices and services before hand.

Then when they start the massage, make sure I do a lot of touching of legs and ass when they are in range.

Never had a problem getting what I was interested in.

Have done this at places where I know the girl has been there a long time so would have a good idea that I was not there before.

This quite possibly the saddest news I've heard recently. The combination of being literally ten minutes from my front door, a nice shower set up, and reliable (though limited) service from attractive providers, made Tao my absolute go to when I really needed a spontaneous pick-me-up.

I feel bad for Linda and Gina.

I guess I won't feel so unfaithful when I try Rosemary now.

When I am asked, " first time here?" I always say no, its been awhile but I've been here several times. If they ask " who did you see?" I always reply, " I don't know, mia, miia, something like that, it was awhile ago. " usually after that it works out well, only one time down in Brookline I played that game then on the flip the girl asked, " what do you want?" I said "BJ" she asked, " OK, how much you give?" and I said "$60". She said " Oh, you never been here before with that price!! We get 100 for BJ. " I still played it cool and said " well the girl I was with took $60 and she was happy to do it. " she said, ok, you give me 80.

It ended up being great, she got naked, FIV while she blew me. Sometimes its about the poker face.

I decided to TOFT and try a new spot in and Andover L&B Wellness as I drive by their sign every day. Its located in a small cramped older strip mall, parking is tight lots of foot traffic. Didn't make appt just walked in, met by mid 40's not very attractive a bit on the heavy side Chinese woman. She asked if I wanted an hour and asked for the $60, told me to undress and get on table. Place seemed very clean and well lit. When she came back in I was on the table and undraped and she asked me several times if it was my first time there and covered me up. I asked for hard massage and got it, I was actually sore the next day in a good way. Massage was very good. Wiped up oil, long ST. On the flip she was very nervouse but everything worked out. I guess. Senior members and contributors can PM for details. All and all I don't think I will be back unless they get some better looking women. No table shower.

Now that ST has, apparently, shot themselves in the foot, what other choices for a decent table shower are available north of Beantown?

To the best of my knowledge, that is:

1. Royal Spa in Chlms (apparently added TS recently, but have no first-hand experience).

2. One Mountain in Burl (or at least they had a nice TS last time I was there maybe two years ago).

3. Aqua Therapy in Londonderry.

4. Weini Spa in Londonderry.

5. Sunset Spa in Manchester NH.

6. Tender Massage in Wilmington.

7. Thai Wellness Spa in Wilmington (very mixed reviews), and.

8. TCM in Tewks (supposedly).

What knowledge can y'all add to this list?

Outstanding table shower setup and service at chowan in Brattleboro VT. Don't write to me. Go try it.

[Jack A Dogov]

Just left Spa Tao and sad to report that the place is no longer what we all loved. Table shower is gone, replaced by foot massage chairs. Gina is still there but it's just a straight massage now. No tease, no fun, no nothing. I got up after 30 min and gave her $40 for her efforts. Told her I won't be back unless things change. She understood and felt bad.

Okay a few things. Obviously the new name "Spa Envy" is intended to try to make people think it's affiliated with "Massage Envy. " This is a common (though sleazy) trick in business. The elimination of the table show sucks. Spa Tao had probably the nicest table shower I've ever been in. Linda and Gina (my favorite there) still being there is the only plus. The fact that there is no longer happiness to be had there however completely ruins what was one of the nicest as well as one of the most well run places I've had the pleasure of visiting. While there were sometimes gaps in my visits, I was a regular there. I received the discounted massage more than a few times but there's really no reason to visit anymore. Very bad mis-calculation on the new owner's part. I expect them to close within the next three to four months unless things change. It's really too bad.

Aqua has a lay down TS. They have stand up shower in a massage room in the basement.

I'd heard that Sunset has a TS, but I've been there many times and it has never been mentioned. Maybe it's no longer in use?

It's been years since I've visited Aqua. However, I have a vague recolletion that there was a standard stand-up shower in the basement, and not a TS. But it's possible that they've installed a real TS since that time.

[FolleBlanche]

Can anyone offer some intel on Royal (talent, offerings, etc)? I was never interested when they first spun out from the original Royal Spa (oh, man, THAT was a good spot). Finally, a year or two ago, I tried it out and ended up discovering BBJ/ FS on offer from a nice but very chubby lady who was gone as soon as word got out. I never see anything about the place on the board, though. PM if you prefer.

Iv'e followed this board for some time and wanted to contribute.

I've been to YL in Methuen over the years and agree with what most people have said about it being rushed as well as busy at times. A few weeks ago I walked in and paid the fee only to be sat down on that little couch. I did call for an appointment and even before I walked in I called and asked if it was busy. In the end I asked for my money back after I realized there was a dude in the little side room before me where they put the saran wrap. (yea. I've been placed there before) I've seen both girls there before and would consider the experience average. I once had candy as my provider a few times and she was great but that was some time ago.

I've been a customer of t c m for some time as well. I've seen a few different providers there and have done the table shower a couple of times. I don't like table showers there as I don't find it that comfortable but if that's your thing go for it. (I've never done a table shower elsewhere so I have no comparison) After going there for some time I've noticed that each one has a certain routine and it's fairly predictable but they do a good job. Maybe it's my fault for not being that adventurous. Each time I tip somewhere between. 5 to. x. In general I'm usually generous and tip more than I should.

I also checked out Roger 8. Called for an appointment but when I got there they were busy so I left. I've been there once before and had an OK time.

[BostonBearded1]

Went to the Spa I believe was reviews back in June off of 3 A In Tyngsboro.

Said massage therapy In he is snow and I Had to ring doorbell to be let in as it was locked. So it feels a little exposed waiting like that in the strip mall. So it looked like a standard AMP. Got greeted by Vivian, ok looking maybe 30 ish old woman. House fee was. 50 for three hour.

Pro:

She gave a really great massage, great techniques and loosened up my sore back.

Con /:

She left the towel on junior the whole time. So didn't leave happy.

I asked about what other services may be offered for more tip like I do at other places and she told me sorry none offered. So I guess I struck out. Tipped $15 and left.

I had tied it a week before but it was too busy and didn't get to stay there. Also the was an unattractive grandma that is not my thing.

Went here while back, got a younger female, my guess Vivian, and was told she wanted to watch me do my own HE.

Left after. .5 to house and .2 tip as I did not leave happy.

[CoolGuy1985]

I'm going to hazard a guess that Spa Tao's success led to someone making an offer to purchase the business. The new owner will probably keep a few of the original staff for a short while. But happiness will no longer be found there. This is just speculation.

What an epic fall for ST! Used to be such a crowd favorite. If TS is gone that reduced 90% of fun anyways because providers would anyways not go beyond standard HE there.
