Dream part Deux
[QUOTE=Jovi69; 1854267]I decided to give this place a shot last night since its really close to my work.
I've driven by this place 100 times and never knew it was there. No signs on the building.
Pricing is. 45/65. Table shower is free. My therapists name started with an E. I originally booked for 1/2 but decided to give the extra. 2 to stay for the hr. The message was very good, you could tell she was professional trained. She even did some stretching techniques on my legs, thighs and back while I was lying face up. Lots of teasing as well.[/QUOTE]I have to agree with Jovi69. I went for the hour. My gal gave great massage. No roaming as she was wearing jeans and tie top, Used towels to dry off, hot towel to get rid of oil, etc. Would definitley visit again, may try another for variety.

Back in the day
[QUOTE=George W. Bush; 1875960]
Don't remember 83 bodyworks unless that was the place up the street by Red Lobster, but I do remember West Coast from years and years ago a little further down Oakton down by a strip mall that was torn down. Ahh, the girls in those lab coats. (and out of them.[/QUOTE]Hi George,
If West Coast is the place I'm thinking of, wasn't it also called Touch of Class back in the 90's too- near Oakton and Elmhurst? I remember those white lab coats and the convenience of walk ins for an American spa that wasn't a clip joint. Taylor was pretty attractive and a very well trained masseuse. I forget the others that worked there. I want to say Tracy and Kim, but my memory is not the best.

Table shower
[QUOTE=Gooch;1863112]Great first report JoeD. And welcome to our little brotherhood. I never cared for the smell of that shower room either, but like you said, it's not so bad after a while. Interesting point on the potential hazards of the shower table.[/QUOTE]I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought about the potential negatives from a table shower. I guess that's one reason why I usually don't go to AMP's. The other being that many of the women there are like freakin' 60. I miss Rainbow Spa (Rockford) from my younger days. That place was so relaxing.

Re: Back in the day
It's been so long I honestly don't remember either alternate business names or the girls, with one exception. The full name was Doc's West Coast if I recall correctly, and it's been so long I may not. I remember having to fill out a questionnaire, promising to behave etc. It was southwest of the corner of Oakton and Elmhurst. They tore down the strip mall and now there's a storage locker place behind where it was. The only girl I remember was Lena, the red head with the great natural rack. I eventually hooked up with her doing an outcall at my place after she advertised on BP. It's been years, and she told me she was moving to England.

I believe it was also called Touch of Class for a while. I don't remember any names, but the girl I used to see there was California beach model hottt, and was not too good at massage, but she sure knew how to use her fingernails. I miss that.

Spa 83
"Don't remember 83 bodyworks unless that was the place up the street by Red Lobster, but I do remember West Coast from years and years ago a little further down Oakton down by a strip mall that was torn down. Ahh, the girls in those lab coats. (and out of them.". Bush 43.
Spa 83 Bodyworks, also once known as Acupressure Spa, was in the front of the industrial park on the west side of Rt. 83 just a little south of the Algonquin Road intersection. It was my go-to place off and on for years in the '90s and 2000s, especially after Sooni and GiGi moved there from Exercise when Exercise closed for about a year at the turn of the century. I knew them so well that I'd often get a 4-hands massage at no extra charge. I wonder whatever happened to them.

New Life Massage
Well, a vote on the good side. Stopped in here this am. Think I was 1st client of the day. Place is nice and new and friendly. Got the full treatment, and left happy.

Yun Spa
Alright, time to get back to posting. After reading the reviews here, I stopped by Yun Spa twice in the last month. This place was big, cozy, and clean. I agree the therapists are on the older side, but they sure do know how to treat their clients. I enjoyed thorough TS, hard-massage, & of course, the finish. If you guys are looking for young therapists, then look elsewhere. YMMV always applies, but I am sticking with this one for now.

I went back to the place on Oakton for my third visit. This visit was a little disappointing. From the start I was just not into the looks of the girl. The room had a little smell to it but I got over it. The table shower was very lame. No attention to the goods and it was quick. I almost felt like she had never done one before. By this time I was hoping for just a nice massage. She did a light massage at my request that was nothing special. On the flip there was no roaming allowed. I tried and she said no. I did leave happy but it was frustrating at the same time. I will go here again but not with the same girl. I wish I would have asked her name but I didn't.
I did try to go to the New Life the other day but when I got there they told me they were closing in 30 minutes so I passed.

Yun Again
Yun is my goto place. The ladies are all well trained and licensed. I always leave there feeling relaxed and refreshed!

Yun. Good time
Was at YUN recently. I got an older lady, curvy in all the right places, average looking. The table shower was very good. She did a very good job at cleaning all the spots with no issues.
The massage was good, no lotion and got some cracks out of the back. On the flip, I urgraded 1 level from the standard finish and left happy.
The experience would have been better if there was a bit more friendly. She was nice, but very business like. Overall good time, not spectacular. I need a little more mileage as I only have been a couple times.

Yun mixed results
Been to Yun four times. A different lady each time and always left happy. Two were decent looking with nice extras but massage has yet to be good by any of the four. The last time I went I asked for either of the two favorites and she said they both no longer work there. So I went with the girl who was available. She was north of 50, thin and a little nutty and was by far the worst of my visits. Left happy but overall disappointed in the experience. So I have been recently sticking to EX Spa. Others reviews of Yun suggest I should try again.

They turned into AMP dust after they were shut down a few years ago. IMHO, it was the closet thing in MP that could be compared with Peking Spa. Ah, the good ol days. I am afraid that the recent explosion in the number of AMPs in the Mt. Prospect area will lead to a crackdown again, especially after seeing all of the recent detailed reviews.

I came during the day, but it was quite busy for that hour since another monger went in right after me and another one was waiting outside when I was leaving. Girl was a little bit younger when you usually see in Illinois. Ok massage, standard finish, standard tip. Might be back if nothing better is available.

New Life
I've been twice now. I don't see where this place is better than anything else in the area. I still prefer the other options. Just my opinion.
