Massage Parlor Reports

Saw Toni at Garden this weekend.

Was originally going to go to Pine Tree but there were some ladies standing in front of the door (I'm presuming from the adjacent business) talking. As I approached they gave me a glare so I went to Garden instead since its the same anyways.

Garden seemed to be dead, no other customers and all the lights were off. Ended up with Toni, enhanced chest with a bob haircut, 40-50-ish. Good attitude but not that great in the massage department. She also walks on your back, but she didn't seem to know what she was doing, so I politely asked her stop since she was putting her entire body weight atop my shoulder blade and hurting me. Otherwise, standard Nova.

Brambull and Fatpig.

I love you guys.

I am searching those threads.

[QUOTE=Hofi35]Just curious, how do you know they were arguing about that? Do you understand korean?

No I don't, but they used English at least part of the time, and included me in the discussion "Hey big guy, you want happy happy, yes? Yes! See? I told you they always want happy finish!" (followed by arguing in some language I don't know.) Eventually I gave up and told them that if she didn't want to I wasn't going to force the issue so at least she'd get back to a massage. Then the next two times mms walks in the girl would quickly protest that "He said I didn't have to!" So much for the illusion of intimacy.

I gave up and left early. Needless to say, my tip wasn't that great.

Though I was annoyed at the time, now it seems kind of funny to me.

[QUOTE=Choboman]Stopped by this place and was deeply disappointed. Set up like a standard AMP, but no table shower. The 'girl' who walks in is in her late 40s or early 50s, and dressed in casual shorts and t-shirt. Massage is completely non-sexual. 10 minutes in the mamasan walks in and starts arguing with her about needing to give me standard NoVa at the end, which she doesn't want to do. In the end I paid standard AMP rates for a mediocre massage and no HE. Give this one a pass.[/QUOTE]

Not sure what it is about Sterling as I've never been to any AMPs there, but two AMP providers so far have told me they used to work in Sterling and moved to other locations. Is Sterling a known LE hot spot?

Sterling is in Loudon County and LC is cracking down on AMPs.

They've been doing it all year.

It was not really until recently. Sterling and Woodbridge were about the only places you could get FS in an actual spa. The rest of NOVA maintained a lower level of menu options.

Of the 5 Woodbridge AMPs of which I'm aware, only two offered me FS. I won't mention them here but the women at both were not exactly noteworthy.

It used to be that anything from Annandale north or west would offer FS, at least pre-2003. DC, MD (Howard County) and the few Balto AMPs were all great.

Hit up Papaya tonight and boy has it been busy lately! Got there the same time as another monger so I was waiting a few mins to give him space but as I waited another guy popped around the corner and went in so I decided I'd better get in before they closed up for the night.

Mamasan asked me to take only a half hour and I reluctantly agreed. Waited for about 10 minutes in a side room before she took me into another room and then brought me "Meena." Mama said I was "good customer" and decided to upgrade me to the full hour I asked for even thought they were busy and near close.

Initially the therapist looked really cute and I thought she was young but as is usually the case when I got a better look later my first impression was generous. Still very attractive though, great body, nice fakes and attractive face. Not much English.

Still, definitely good looking and good attitude. Very affectionate with little touches - washed my face with a wash cloth during TS, behind the ears, between the toes and of course the important spots. Same with massage - lots of nice touches and all without lotion (which I'm not a huge fan of).

Finish was very competent with roaming and a little extra affection. I don't think I have the same luck as some other forum members but I always get above average experiences at Papaya compared to the other Tyson's area spas (especially Tyco Rd). Maybe that's why they've been so busy lately?

On the way out accidentally ran into another monger. Sorry if that was anyone from the board.

You are correct, 2 in WB that I know of as well, and 2-3 at any given time (before the LE closures recently) in the Sterling area. For at least a couple years now the rest of NOVA was offering just the standard finish.

There was occassionally a rouge spa here or there that would pop up and offer FS, such as 112, but they did not last long and closed quickly.

I personally found a gem or 2 in WB at those spas, but remember what you and I may not find noteworthy may be exactly what someone else is looking for.

Went to Magical Touch in Woodbridge, not a stellar experience. $60 house fee, she asked for tip up front as soon as I was in the room. Gave her standard NOVA tip and she immediately got down to business. At other places I'm used to table shower, massage then the rest. I thought "well, this is different but ending up with a table shower might be pretty good". Wrong. After she had taken care of things she left the room, making a comment that indicated we were all finished up. She was kind of surprised when she came back in and I was still on the table. I told her I still wanted a massage, and she gave me one, pretty half assed though. When she finished and I asked about a table shower she told me they had a hot water problem but the repairman was coming later in the day. Overall, not a total rip-off, but I wasn't pleased with it so I won't go back. Is this kind of service typical there?

I think it also depends on the provider/ client if they click. Some can get easier the shorts off than others.

Really? I always enjoy Tyco and have good luck on the left side. The right is a bit to OLD for my taste.

Finally..Aroma has anyone gone in the last few months? PM me I like to know if the quality is still there. Sky at FarEast is gone until next month im told. too bad looks like I not going there until she pops up again.

My guess would be that your tip (along with the half hour door fee) determined the level of service you received. The folks at MT have a different view as to what a "standard NOVA tip" should be.

Too many near-by options available for us to have to haggle like a used car salesman for what is supposed to be an "illusion of intimacy" IMO.

My question is why did you go to MT for "Standard NOVA"?, This place is FS all the way. Known for it and not the massage. If you want a "Standard Nova" there are far more places to go to where you will get a quality massage, typically(exceptions are always found but) great massages are NOT delivered at spas providing FS menu options from all of the providers.

Bottom line if you want a decent massage and ONLY a "Standard Nova" finish, MT is NOT the place to go.

Yup yup, but that service will likely end up costing better then $$ after door fee. Or at least thats my experience.

That's what I was thinking anyway, lol. I'm from out of town, so not too familiar with the area and who provides what. I know better now.
