Massage Parlor Reports

[QUOTE=Knight62;2300649]If you guys want to read the new ordinance concerning our AMP's just Google Prov Ordinance 2014-55.

Can't find when it will take effect. It doesn't say anything about massages, just bodywork's.[/QUOTE][URL]http://providenceri.iqm2.com/Citizens/Detail_LegiFile.aspx?MeetingID=2497&ID=4371[/URL]

It doesn't provide any definition of what constitutes body work and is so poorly worded that it could apply to beauty shops, barbers and all kinds of other businesses. IAC I expect we'll see the same thing occur in Providence as happened in St Petersburg, FL when they tried this and all the AMPs became aroma therapy salons.

[BLUE]One of the curses of a free forum is, well, it's free. Anybody can join. One of the hardest things for me to figure out is when there is an invasion of shills like what happened here this week. I changed the titles and banned the ones I was sure of SpaHunterUSA, RedSox1980, and Steel1973, Shills no doubt. Joblo not so much, he has a low post count but joined a long time ago.

As with most of you guys I'm always suspicious of new members till they get some history but it would keep the threads cleaner if you just reported the post so I could look into it.

I suspect one of the main attempts of the ordinance is to ensure that those working at said spas are documented. Allegedly, some of the workers in these types of spas are working there against their will.

The decency and sanitation section sound more like a recommendation than enforceable code. The documentation required with regard to employees and ownership will be harder for a spa to abide by than the decency recommendations. And no more late nights.

Game over?

[QUOTE=Hockey;2301172]Game over?[/QUOTE]It sure looks like it, at least life as we know it is over.

[QUOTE=Hockey;2301172]Game over?[/QUOTE]No way. They might do a number of different things. Just look at the "new" tanning salon that opened in Cranston. I haven't been there since Emerald so couldn't tell you if they're the same services but I bet it's similar.

[QUOTE=Olepapa;2300839]Read the ordinance again. UNder exceptions, barbers and beauticians are listed and are exempt from this ordinance.[/QUOTE]Yup! My bad, you're absolutely correct! Guess I'm going to have to start using those glasses I got.

Since this ordinance also deals with "vapors" I guess pest control folks fall under it too? I wonder who else?

Called DT last night around 1030. Was informed "Seven not here anymore. She not come back. ". Just my luck. Hopefully she was mentoring someone to fill her shoes. Any additional info would be welcome.

Personal opinion -- too soon to say how or how much this will affect the spas and their customers. I suspect that the spa owners have their lawyers sifting through the law to find a work-around. There probably will be a bit of a shake-up and our habits and old customs may need alteration.

I don't get my shorts tied into knots over this stuff easily. Despite all efforts against it, this is a profession that has persisted and even grown for a *VERY* long time. Providence is trying to legislate toothpaste back into the tube, which rarely works out.

Wait for the dust to settle and go from there.

Ishmael.

Gents.

Heading down tomorrow and have no clue where to go. Do not want Seven but want a gem. Prefer Far East or Harmony but will come into city if I get a reason.

Thanks in advance.

Went and took the plunge here. Will not repeat. Drew plain Jane, a skinny K girl. Massage at best was ok. TS was good. Up selling and settle for. 8 plus. 6 in the door. Bikini Top came off and she displayed the bees. Looked and tasted ok. Rushed and up selling turned me off. Total. 6 and. 4.

[QUOTE=Knight62;2301629]So OPT, are you saying you can get a Tan and a Tug.[/QUOTE]Looks that way. Or a tan and more. I haven't been there since it was emerald which was a couple months back.

Had a nice time with Jenny (Ginny?) last night down in La Prov. The Chimi trucks were out, it was a nice night, and I enjoyed a good session. Sauna, TS, "massageee" and the main event were all very pleasant. She was a typical K-Gal, said she'd been here a few months. Youngish but not young. Maybe 30? House plus usual tip for everything.

No haggle, helped me put my shoes on. Hot towel but no alcohol spray, so if your a germ-o-phobe bring your own.

Nice time, dry sauna warm up was nice.

By law, you cannot advertise "massage" without a license. Bodywork was the way around this. Someone made mention that "aroma therapy," is a way around this. Of course, in our case.

The only aroma I want to smell is that is a hot pussy.

In my experience if you don't want FS and you go to an AMP with a FS reputation, you get treated as though you are wasting their time, because, in effect you are wasting their time. YMMV of course and some places are more flexible, others, not so much.

ARG.

Since I hadn't been to Pleasant Street in over a year and there's been no review in a while I decided it was time to try them again, and am happy I did.

They now want customers to park in the lot just to the left of their building, rather than on Pleasant Street in front of them. I guess they figure it draws less attention.

The place, as always, was nice and clean. My provider again was "Julie", a nice looking though not stunning probably mid-30's K-girl, long straight hair, skinny, nice "A"s speaking adequate Engrish, always smiling, enthusiastic and a very pleasant personality. Sprayer still being used in the TS, but it was thorough. Massage skills still not great, but better than many and the service was superb, taking direction well. $60 to the house, tip $140 and I'd definitely repeat again.

Was hoping to see Lee after her bacation, she wasn't available and I got plain Jane. No upsell, and she was a trooper but the overall experience was kinda boring. She also left the room several times to "check on things". I won't be back for a while.

Yes that means you! I make a rare trip to your lovely state and post a request for where I should go on the board last night. I wake this morning hoping my inbox has the capacity for the volume of replies and much to my dismay I see it was an unnecessary fear. Not a single one of you pm'd saying " PW head here and see XXX" I see how it is you you RI guys! LOL.

Well, never a shy one I head out anyway. Decide (wrongly) that I want to stay closer to home and shave some time off the trip so Harmony here I come. Having never been there I try to look like a vet with the Mama but fail to ask for a lineup. Rookie mistake, I know. Anyway I draw Sylvia who is average in that Korean Spa girl way. In Mass she would be a Star but down here not so much. Won't bore with the details but an acceptable visit though I would not repeat with her. I will say the location is great in terms of parking and easy access to the highway. On my way out I saw two other girls, one ok but the other was very hot and named Cara. Anyone with info on her please step up and allow me to have faith in my RI brethren again!

FYI, in case anyone does head there and is curious about a girl to ask for. Can't personally vouch but the reviewer was more than satisfied.

I paid a visit to palm this week and got suegi I'm not going to lie she's a little heavy and I didn't find her attractive, oh yeah! She's older too, other then that she was fine. The massage was.

4-5 the CBJ a 5 the main event 4. Hey it's the holidays I'm being generous. I will not repeat. I know this review is lame but so was the visit. Hope this helps, stay safe.

[QUOTE=SmokeScreen;2303630]Probably has no immediate bearing on other towns, but Providence is the leader, the others might follow suit.[/QUOTE]Remember too that during the last Providence shutdown providers elsewhere used it as a ploy to try to drive up prices.

The sad thing is that the new ordinance will likely affect the walk in rub and tug places more than the FS places. Furthermore the consequences of any permanent crackdown will be that the FS places, now in business areas, will move to AAMP's in residential areas. This will actually annoy people that a ho is living next door.

Up here in Mass there is no problem finding a FS girl, but you're always in an apartment building, and the girl is like sshhh, don't want the downstairs neighbors hearing the bed creak. These girls are pro's travel from Hawaii, to Texas, to RI, to Boston, and send a LOT of money home to Korea. They will be unaffected by any ordinance, it will just mean that it becomes a 2 call system.

PROVIDENCE: You have a nice, clean, nearly out of sight / underground scene. Leave it alone.

[QUOTE=ANIMAL;2302715]Just bodyworks.[/QUOTE]I was referring to the ordinance. Body works. The other places that have a massage license won't be affected by ordnance but that goes without saying any place can be visited if they want to.

Haven't seen any reviews here lately for CH. TWFTT. They don't post a lot of ads so it had me curious.

Location is interesting? Entrance in the back of the building in a dark lot. Awkward cause as I hit the buzz another monger pulled in. Mamasan came out of an apartment next door, unlocked the entrance door and let me in. Honestly didn't know what to expect inside with what I saw outside so far. So I stepped into a reception area and was lead to a room. It was basically one giant room with rafters exposed and they built small rooms for the massages.

Room was ok but there's no ceilings for the rooms. Just four walls room itself was ok. Not as nice as DT or P.S. This is only my 3rd venue I've ever visited so I guess take my report with a grain of salt.

So in comes May, a short skinny k girl with be / see's. She said she was 25 soo from the rules here that's what 35-40. Never had much of a GFE so far but she was very friendly. TS was ok with a little play. Only problem for me was it was cold in the building in general so it wasn't all that enjoyable. The hot sauna helped warm me up though.

She took me back to the room and start the massage which for me wasn't bad. As expected I guess but harder than the others I've had. Some light convo and then the flip. Wasn't bad I won't go into details but once the fun was over she came back and finished up with a little more massaging. She's the first that's ever given me an actual head massage. Big head not the other haha course the other is always good too! A little more light convo and done. Paid what seems to be the usual 60/140.

Would I go back? I'd be curious to see who else they might have but the lack of a ceiling kind of put me off. That other monger from earlier. Yeah I heard him a few doors down from me. Wasn't loud but I'd rather not have to listen to someone else haha.

Any AMPs? Haven't found one yet. Looking in the wrong places I guess.
