Went to get a massage with Nalee
My personal experience with massages have been weird in NoVA, there have been ninja outlets in apartments that had asian providers give you a subpar massage but allowed for roaming and nude play with a less than average finish. Since I didn't want to go see an escort and I had been playing rather rough lately with soccer and long hikes I had quite a few aches and strains that needed to be remedied. So I've seen Nalee's advertisements on CG and BP for awhile now...I also believe there used to be Zaza and another lady as well but I guess there no longer around based on some mild research. Anyways I hit up Nalee and it was a standard call and then on to text, made an appointment and parked in driveway. I got there a bit early, I'd say she's a bit better looking in person than in the pictures, but the pictures are fairly accurate for the most part.
The massage was actually quite good, went with Swedish for the hour and thoroughly got the working I needed, she offered the standard finish and she was clearly quite good at servicing me. Nothing fancy though and clothes are kept on. This was also known however so I wasn't at all disappointed with this, she's been well documented on TER and she seems to understand her clients look for that bit of finish. Not disappointed, if I feel a bit more adventurous I will probably go some where else but in the future if I'm looking for an above average massage with a top off, Nalee is the one to go to.
You should have left nothing
[QUOTE=Anonymous625;2107205]I had a very bad dream, one that I kept trying to wake up from. I found myself heading towards the second floor of a brown office building on Elden St. I had heard talk of some girl named Anna and I was anxious to try my luck. When I walked in I was greeted by the MMS and I very clearly asked for Anna, to which she said "yes yes. Anna". But I would not see Anna.
She left me waiting in the room for a solid 15 minutes, took me to their "sauna" and left me for a while. Left during the middle of the TS to do I don't know what, came back complaining more and more that I should have called ahead for an appt.
Got back to the room, no massage. Just "what do you want? I said just a massage because I didn't want to pay this old MMS for anything. Still didn't get a massage, flipped, finished after an annoying amount of time, and was then sent packing. I left 0.4, she complained it wasn't enough, I complained about not getting a massage. I didn't tell her how upset I was about her pretending to be Anna.
The whole time I kept wishing I could wake up and forgot all about that awful dream. I should have just left after the TS and cut my losses, but you know how it is when you dream. You do stupid things and feel powerless to stop.[/QUOTE]I mean zero. Tell her "no Anna, no massage, no tip." Then walk out.
"Legit" Sensual Therapists?
Coming from Tampa, I am SORELY disappointed in the action up here (I'm sure you've heard it all by now). Overpriced, lack of service, etc.
Anyway, I used to see a legit shop down there that gave good massages at really good prices $45/65 for 60/90 sessions. Most did fully undraped and used their signature light touch "finish" No actual touching for HE, but close. I usually could get myself so relaxed that I could pop anyway without the HE. Any places like this around? I've also run into legit ones in Chicago like this when I lived there. It is almost like some of these legit providers take it as a badge of honor if they can get you to pop without touching. Kind of validates their relaxation techniques I guess.
To me this ends up being a better session and more relaxing than paying more for a rushed AMP finish.
I agree about nothing special, but still the lowest $ around
[QUOTE=NovaCane;2114765]I was there last weekend and got the sport massage and they did exactly that. Try to upsell to the $60 and saying the 49 has no oil. I stuck with the 49 but they never used oil for the massage. I had read previous reports that said they used it anyway but no such luck for me.
The massage was ok, nothing special. The girl wasn't bad looking. I'd give her a 6, maybe 6. 5.
At the end of the massage I made a mental note to get her name but then we got talking and talked for a while after the massage and I forgot about it and didn't remember until I was driving away. There was another.[/QUOTE]In terms of the house fee, the special is anywhere from 10 to 30 less than most AMPs. Also, IMHO, the house fee has little to do with the overall experience as it's really about your masseuse. I've seen plenty of crappy therapists at places which charge 80 or 90 per hr for the house. So, while I agree Relax is nothing special, it will scratch that certain itch at a relatively bargain rate.
In each of my visits I've gotten the special, had a decent oil massage and wasn't shorted on time, but I guess it just depends on the masseuse. Of course, if you have a fave at another place with whom you have good chemistry and she allows you lots of extra privileges, you should definitely take advantage of that relationship.
Bottom line for me is that I don't go out of my way to make a trip to Relax but I'm glad it's there as it's a pretty reliable lower-cost option when I'm in that kind of mood. Of course, if Ewa ever returns, I'll be the guy camping outside their front door!
