Jolin's Framingham - Thai Bodywork
[QUOTE=Pw Herman]This is not a review but more of a comment(s)
Had no intention of doing anything today but my travels and detours brought me to the corner of Rt9 and Edgell road. Saw a sign for Subway and pulled in.
Wouldn't you know, two doors down is Jolins new place. Got my sub and figured I would still my head in.
Two "women" there sitting on coach looking very bored ( this is around 2 pm Sat) Greeted by Jasmine sort of cute , real girl, little baby fat ( I would accept massage from her.
Other was Rita and I would not accept a massage from "her"
Place looks very clean
Grabbed a card and left, all the while Jasmine asking me to stay. Maybe another day.[/QUOTE]Visited Jolin's new Framingham place this evening. Did not look too busy at all, and the reason was clear. The providers looked a little too masculine (trans-gender for sure). There was one skinny Asian girl there but I doubt she could do any good, she was too frail. I disagree with PW, it did not look too clean. The business card was illegible (print too small to see) and the price list offered no specifics other than 3 durations. The parking was a little remote too, so it was not too discrete, especially with a completely glass storefront. Looks like it use to be a bank or real estate office.
I was basically not attracted to any of the women (and I use the term loosely) there. Not sure if this trans-gender thing will work.
Healing Heart Loving Hands
I have seen this ad on BP. The provider is in Brighton, and she offers both swedish and Lomi Lomi. There is also a shower. My first thought was this is Lisa who used to be in Newton, but when I called the provider had a different name which I could not understand. I am thinking of taking one for yall, unless someone has already done the leg work.
I guess we'll never know.

Let's play the name game...
BA:
Not sure who Angela is, but the "mamasan" was and is Amy (most of us think she was Amy from WW). She also used the name Linda when I first went to Jasmine right after they opened. The other confusing thing is that SHE is also the slightly pudgy gal who sweated a lot when she tried to start my fire.
I've been there several times - and written multiple reports too. What I didn't report was that I've heard a guy speaking in chinese with them, so it may have been the case that Amy/Linda/(angela?) was a provider but was also trusted with doing greetings, etc.
I've only had one other provider there, and she didn't even stay for the whole session - Amy/Linda had to take over for some reason or another. Each time I've been there, she's promised that I can try the "new girl" next time.
I will likely return when there isn't room at WW, but for now if I'm in that area, I use Jasmine as a backup.
But hey - at least you got the service you wanted. I guess it's better that you not think about their names and just hope for the best!

[QUOTE=Boston Ampfan]A while back I visited Jasmine because I was in the neighborhood and wanted a little variety. Turns out that the heavy and sweaty lady who had been there a while back (described in other reports) is gone and a new masseuse has been brought in from NYC. Sorry, I managed to lose her name, but she is a nice lady with excellent skills. Attractive enough, mid-40's and worth seeing if Mamasan Angela is not available. I don't know if any others are working there now as it was very quiet when I visited. I asked the lady if Angela was around that afternoon and she said no lady named Angela worked there, just someone named Amy. Who knows? .6 + .4[/QUOTE]
Marlboro Scouting Expedition
A while ago I visited a Marlboro place advertised on CL, current ad as follows:

Well, when they say 'stay on Route 20 for 3 minutes," they mean it, because the road does indeed quickly become East Main Street, and that is a way longer drive than I bargained for. Since I headed out around 5:00, I also found the traffic pretty heavy in Marlboro, so if you visit you may want to go at another time. GPS proved very useful as the place does not have a sign. Parking is available right out front and is easily viewed from the road.
Upon arrival I was greeted by an attractive lady in her mid 40's, who identified herself as Susan. She has a very nice massage technique and in fact I nearly fell asleep. Gave me the old self-defense elbow trick when I attempted to satisfy my curiosity after the flip. She did however provide the usual service and with unusual skill and a unique 2-handed style.
Ironic footnote is that toward the end the timer buzzed relentlessly as she continued her ministrations, but the pressure proved too much for me to bear and I politely gave her permission to stop, hoping that at some point in the future we would pick up where we left off.
Would repeat when I have three hours to spare -- 2 for the round trip in the car, 1 for the session.
House .6 and I tipped .4
Spa B for bad also in Non asian sectioon
Called ahead, asked for Gianna, was told come right over.
Got Winona, told Gianna busy.
Cold hands, backward teas squeezed the berries so bad it hurt.
Flipped did a little leg time then the ending.
second ending happened was handed dry paper towels and told to clean up self. Then handed wet ones, she started cleaning up right away I had to ask to use the shower.
Total time 40 minutes from getting out to getting in my car.
Bought the two for package and tipped .4 over tipped in my opinion.
Hope Gianna is not pissed at me will like to try her one last time.
As I was leaving a fellow monger brown shirt and glasses, little heavy was walking in if it was one of you guys hit me with a pm.
Anyone try the platinum blonde in Medford?
She posts occasionally is the adult section on CL. Last four of her phone number is 1391. I am suspicious about her not posting her weight, but would love to find out if anyone has taken one for the team. Here's the text of her ad with the number deleted:
"amber very pretty platinum blonde housewife for massage specializing in sports/swedish/deep tissue certified 5 yrs exp. great personality , relaxing quiet environment , convenient location easy to get off 93 ample parking always availible"
