Some days you win. Some days you break even. And some days you lose.
Last evening I dreamt of this place on 320 maple Ave E in Vienna. It appears I lost this gamble but I figured I'd report anyway. This place seems to change it names frequently (as many AMPs tend to do) Currently going by the name "I spa" I asked for a 30 min massage and the girl begged me for an hour. Told her I sort of stopped by on a whim since traffic was bad and just needed 30 to kill. Skinny middle aged Chinese provider. Mediocre looks but a nice body. Massage surprisingly started out pretty good, I asked for hard but about 10 min in she switched to soft touch which I took as a promising sign. She went right for playful light touching around the thighs and ass going in to entice the areas between my legs. But she never asked me to flip. Strange. Then she told me I had 8 min left, so I took that as a sign that maybe I'd have to be the one to initiate. So I turned over and casually lead her over to where I wanted the massage. She stopped came back with some oil and asked me to finish myself. I said no thanks, I can jerk off for free at home. Sadly she said no and it was 5 more minutes of light touch and tease and then times up. Now here's the thing I don't get. How do you spend 20 minutes doing a soft touch and tease of the area, go out of your way to turn on the switch and then not have the decency to help turn it off? Seems a bit rude. She asked for tip, I was feeling generous and left. 1.
Maybe I just struck out but I touched on this last week, I don't know how some places like these stay in business on mediocre massages alone. I saw another individual walking in after me and left shaking my head at the disappointment in store for him.

[QUOTE=KurtHonn;4014910]I won't contradict your late friend's experience. Indeed I've heard similar stories, in particular about PV ladies who come to Hotel rooms and upsell relentlessly.
However, I can confirm from frequent personal experience that this is not true about at least one of the agencies mentioned above in the thread and, from what I've heard, it is not the case with any of these agencies. In dozens of visits, I've found the ladies to be both younger (maybe half in their twenties and half in their thirties or very well preserved early forties) and prettier than most EMP girls. Moreover, they all spoke English well (again, maybe half native speakers, the other half fluent ESL types). All of them greeted me in a negligee which came off, if anything too fast for my taste, and without any upselling. Most permitted, or even encouraged, mutual touching everywhere..[/QUOTE]To each his own. I think it sounds more like time with a Playboy Magazine. (Before the days of Porn Hub etc.) Anyway back in the day when information was scarce, I realized I had stumbled onto a PV when she requested I Self Service. I laughed and took my leave. Taking one for the team. Scratch off list. And headed to know venue.
As the post above tributes, people do keep them in business. The rest of us, thank you for taking one for the team. We'll scratch it off of our list.
I had a similar experience

Just the Mama and she gave the massage. They were fairly new at the time so I am guessing they must have only had like one lady working there and maybe it was her day off. As for your question of how they stay in business. Just like you, you gave them a try. I am sure that happens on a daily basis. The Average guy probably don't even know about intel boards such as this to warn them. Hope you have a better experience on your next adventure.
Barnie Therapy? Meh. . . .
Okay, so I admit to becoming curious about the Korean AMPs in Annandale, given the recent reports within this forum. So I decided to dive in and try something other than my preferred Thai indies.
My previous experience with the Koreans was a decent massage followed by a lackluster, standard NOVA. In other words, nothing to write home (or forum) about. Perhaps this time would be different. . . .
I chose Barnie Therapy, located in a quiet professional office park off of Backlick Road between Annandale and Springfield. I called in advance to "reserve" a time because I discovered the advertised phone number is a land line, so no texting accepted. I showered, shaved, and had some blue toast to ensure nothing about me could be used as a pretext for lousy service.
I was greeted by "Lee" a thirty- or forty-something fit therapist in white jean shorts and a white blouse. After pleasantries and questions as to how I came to Barnie (I saw your ad on the internet), I paid the house fee (. 8 per hour) and accepted the offer of a table shower. It was pretty good, although the shower is located next to the front door. I had to bite my tongue to keep from laughing when I saw Lee shed her sandals and put on knee-high rubber boots to perform the bathing ritual. Water was warm and all parts were thoroughly cleansed with a teasing hint of what could follow.
The therapy room was clean and spacious, with a table toward one wall. There was a clock and a video display of the facility's security cameras (4) on a small table close to the massage table. I hopped on, face down, and Lee asked how I like my massage. I said I preferred deep tissue. She then asked if I wanted her to walk on my back. I replied "Hell, yes!" Boy, was I pleasantly surprised! There was a single bar hanging from the ceiling which allowed her to maintain her balance while she applied pressure from her body weight and from her toes and heels. My calves, hamstrings, buttocks, back, and shoulders got hammered. I became totally relaxed. When it was time to flip (25 minutes into the hour) I did as requested. Junior was very relaxed from the shower and back side massage. Lee started caressing my chest and Junior slowly and lightly. I thought this was a great sign for a great HE.
But it was not to be.
All of a sudden, Lee goes into standard jackhammer NOVA mode and Junior was not responding. I could tell Lee was becoming increasingly frustrated. She jumped up on the table and straddled my body while increasing the jackhammering, allowing me to fondle her legs, butt, and goonyah but no free roaming within the shorts. I was not enjoying the experience and had to concentrate on ending the misery. When the eruption eventually happened, Lee hopped off, toweled me off and complained her arm and shoulder hurt from working too hard. There was 20 minutes left on the clock. She accused me of being drunk. I told her I was not, but that I had been at a bar earlier in the day to watch football. I tipped her for standard NOVA (. 4) and a little extra for the outstanding backside massage (. 2) and left. No kiss, no hug, no water.
So, I am a little butt hurt. I know in this world it is always YMMMV, but I was surprised at this session's difference between a great massage and lousy ending. Usually at AMPs it is mediocre massage followed by an okay ending. Has any other member experienced such a strange balance? Given the reports coming out of Barnie, was this an anomaly, was Lee having an off night, or what? I know am pushing the envelope of middle age, but have never ever been a "Two Pump Secure" customer, and I have never had any provider ever complain about having to work too hard to reach Happy Land -- by hand, mouth, or whatever.
I would appreciate any comments.

Whatever name she wants to use.

And my 2 cents on it is the fact that there's just one girl working there. It was to my knowledge a very new AMP at the time so the lucky individual may have been treated to a first customer special to incentivize him to become a regular. She wasn't expecting the trample of stampeding mongers to follow suit. My first visit was constantly interrupted by doorbells and I can see she was in over her head. So I think it's just a case of burnout. I agree with ya tho;same experience happened to me where she went full blown jackhammer and expected me to stand up to the abuse as she pounded on my rig. Had to tell her to take it slow an ease up and eventually I was able to blow off some steam but if I know they are rushing to get me out the door it always kills my mood. But also keep in mind with many of the ladies you need to develop a rapport. I'm not saying things will change if you become a regular, but they might?
The splendor of this game
So not ready to divulge the who / where but thought for entertainment purposes I'd share my latest visit from Tysons Corner.
I have a regular place I go, its been mentioned before, and the ladies seem to give me a bit of above and beyond. Granted they are older ladies, but heck, the spring in my step is rather worn as well.
As is always noted here, be nice to the ladies, and YMMV and I am always respectful and let them lead so.
My regular is out on vacation, I knew this going in, she had introduced me to her replacement. A nice tall 30's girl with long hair and definitely a perfectly acceptable replacement so I was looking forward to meeting her today.
I arm myself with the house fee, and also an extra house fee just to be on the safe side and to be prepared for the unknown. I get to the door and ring the bell, takes 3 minutes or so and this very small, mid 30's girl with short hair answers the door to let me in.
I greet her with the "hey your new here" and she just smiles and directs me to the room. I undress, hop on the bed sans towel / sheet and Nancy comes walking back in. Oh well guess I'm not getting the tall long haired girl. Well as there is no baseline for either woman's experience what does it matter, they are both cute.
Nancy gets to work with the oil, no pre-warm up with the towel, sheet, just start on the back. We start to chit chat but she is very soft spoken and I can barely hear her. Her English is excellent but her volume is very low. I took it that she does not want to chat much so I just laid there and relaxed. She works the shoulders, mid back, and lower back for about 15 minutes. Not hard, not soft, not fast, actually pretty slow. Pretty slow and steady with long strokes. I'm thinking to myself that this is not going to be a great time as she seems bored or something. She spends the next 10 minutes on the crack and the boys and I adjust my thinking. Hmm seems like I'll get the standard NoVA is possible anyway.
I flip and caress her back OTC, she is slowly rubbing my chest and nipples with one hand and the inner thigh area with the other. I notice she is really looking at me though, like staring deep into my face. Not unpleasant just not a typical experience for me. After about 5 minutes of her caressing me and looking at me I ask her what is it that she is looking at and she responds, "I like what I see". Now again I think this is great tip maneuvering technique and am all to happy to play along. I mean I am close to twice her age but again enjoying the compliments.
I slowly creep my hand under her t-shirt and just as I do, she does this one-handed snap move I've not seen before to which I sarcastically say, sure you can undo your bra, to which I discovered that's exactly what she had done. Impressive. She exposes the girls and ask if I like, to which any fool would say yes very much so. Very nice 34/36 C and nicely perky. I have a good time with them for a few minutes and ask if anything else comes off and she said no. I did not push the issue.
She asked how often I visit and then said, "oh that's too bad, you probably won't be back before I leave then. You should be happy with what you have while you have it" to which I agreed and continued to demonstrate my gratitude. A few more minutes of this and I asked her to then come lay with me. I like cuddling and kissing and was getting a few pecks in here and there. She agreed and lays next to me and we start DFK very passionately, even some light biting which I just love. After 5 minutes of this she takes my hand and puts it under her panties and I'm like. This is NOT what I was expecting. Quickly however she got off the table and then stood next to me and said "these are getting in the way" Off come the pants and panties and we go at it hot and heavy. No FS which was fine with me just full body kissing, touching, and FIV to 3-4 orgasms. Very hot and sweaty. I take her in my lap face to face and she whispers in my ear "Tell me you want me to suck your dick" - Well duh! I gleefully repeat that back to her three times to which she does a great BBBJ that eventually ends with CIM right at the 1 hour mark. I'm like we need to stay here another 30 minutes to recover and she said ok. Alot of pillow talk and caressing and I kept shaking my head. She asks why I was shaking my head and I respond this is NOT what I was expecting, and I asked her is this what you were planning? And she said not even close. (I am going to choose to believe this part).
As I did not bring in enough cash to compensate for the level of service I had her charge my card from the 90 min and used the original house fee and additional cash to cover the service charge. She looked at me, gave me a big hug and kiss and put the money back in my pocket and said she had a great time.
Man that was the equivalent of betting on red and hitting. I was dumbfounded. I asked for her digits and she said "next time". I hope I can get there for there to be a next time as this was probably the top 3 AMP experiences in my time in the hobby.
Stay safe.
