Massage Parlor Reports

[QUOTE=Dan Wesson]Steven1234,

Your post from yesterday was not positive on Spa A or RX and you extoled the virues of RI. Yet you go to RX today. What's up? Did I misread it or did the little head grab the steering wheel?[/QUOTE]YES the little head was thinking and took over control of my vehical. I couldn't make the drive to Rhiode Island.

I didn't have alot of free time today or in the next few days so I decided to give massage RX another try. Last time I was at massage RX was several months ago. I will say the inside of the place is much improved. They are moving tommorow up the Road to a better location. The woman who i saw was Ok and I got the upsell but held my ground for the $ 40 tip. I am pretty sure what is going on at all the Massage places with the upsel these days. Due to the economy and the fact the places are asking for a ridiculous price of 4 80 house fee the providers must be 100 $ on commision. I see a whole bund of them sitting outside the SPA all the time so it appears they make very little $. If they see a Customer it is rare so they have to make the best of it and they try to "roll" the guy for as much as they can get. They don't care about him being a regular down the road. This is the opposite of what they should be doing. That is my theory .

take care, Scott

Took a chance and went. Saw an older lady and and got the 1/2 hr for .35. Only got the massage, which was ok. Asked but language problem. There may be extras but wasn't offered nor were there any indicatons of such. Anyone else have any luck.

There was a coupon for 5 visits and one free etc. I may try again.

I found a number in the Phoenix and gave it a call. I was getting out of work at 9pm but she said she would wait for me to get there.

Initially, she quoted .60 for one hour but I asked if she would offer 30 mins. She said ok and said it would be .30 No problem with that for a first visit.

The entrance to the place is a ground floor apartment in the rear of the building. I gave her a call as I approached the door and she opened it for me.
She appeared to be about 30-35, maybe older. Looks were not bad.
Told her I wanted a soft massage.

Lot's of teasing. No problem with me touching her legs and ass. Then, as I got up a little on my knees, she not only started reaching under and playing with the boys and stroking me, she was playing with my ass too. She asked if I wanted her to put her finger inside. I said, sure, go ahead, as it was quite nice.

Then, she had me do the flip. More nice stroking and again, a little prostate stimulation. Incredible. Definitely will return.

Looks: 6
Door charge: .30
Tip: .30

Now I call this a good deal.

Her last for digits are 6663

seems a lot of these providers are not the brightest. A little customer service goes a long way. too bad they don't realize the economy is struggling and mongers will vote w/ their feet. I sure feel that way when I come across a DIY joint or worse "all done" joint.

that was the case w/ the spa on broadway in Arlington. lousy TS, no washing of crack, no tease during massage and "all done"...yeah, me too as in will never return. TOFTT w/ TS and half hour massage. don't bother. I don't see how these places will survive? they sure won't get any repeat business from mongers. so who's left to go to these places?

you can tell I have had a stessful week. i ended up with a high rank person of my Company doinga ride along for a week. After i dropped him off at the hotel I was not far from mandella. I ahve not been there in about 5-7 years. It is funny that I am still on their card system (they keep track of you). I got got a 40 yr old named Jenette. Prices actually stayed the same $ 80 plus tip for the 45 min massage . They also have a shower there which you can use before and after the massage. I know you get a better massage if you shower.
Decent massage topless. Unfortuntely jennete does not know me and held me at a angle that that put her in the "line of fire". i made sure she didn't know I was appreaching the end of the session. Afterwards i appologized and she went to wash her hair. Hee Hee

Every once in a while, I used to go over to Chinese Massage Therapy in Watertown to see a young lady who goes by the name of "Lily." (Don't they all? (:) )

For various reasons, mostly having to do with my pathetic and inexplicable failure to launch during the allotted time at WW, I decided to circle back to CMT to see how Lily is doing.

It turns out that slender, lovely and buxom young Lily is no longer working there. As the lady at the front desk reported to me, Lily is "working in another building." (I was sorely tempted to ask, "Doing what? and "Can you show me the location on Map Quest?" ) Given the choice of the front desk lady, "Maureen," or May, I decided to take the plunge with Maureen, throwing all caution and common sense to the wind.

Well, Gentlemen, I can tell you that if not much was available at CMT before, even less is available now. Maureen had me totally tucked in and comfy beneath the drapery, and if at any time her remote sensors told her that she might catch even a glimpse of my most exciting, semi-turgid equipment, she turned her head to look up at the ceiling. At one point, I had the temerity to tell her that I preferred a drapeless massage session. This resulted in but a slight shift of the blankey. I considered gently touching her leg as she leaned over to reach down my back, but my practiced instincts told me that this would have caused her to run screaming out of the room.

Maureen is a skilled massage therapist. I like medium-to-hard and she accommodated me well. But if you seek more, you will not find it at CMT.

Good hunting and good night!

Nothing like a little cream rinse or facial action. I did some face painting at FY on a first visit with Nicole. She wanted a larger tip...I don't think so.

What did ya think of the rack on Jeanette? She has a thin, hard body too. Plus she has a pleasing attitude.

For a 40 year old Jeannete shure has a mean body. I still find it funny how the front desk person tells you the 1 hour massage is actually 45 minutes. Perhaps I should hand her $ 60 and tell her that it is really $ 80. The place inside is so so... not run down and not fancy like the Spa A and B. What you get is usually a older woman over 40-60 years old who is good at massage and a He that may be topless. I will not opt for extras unless i feel the view is worth it. I felt bad about Jeanette getting some "Conditioner " in her hair. I couldn't help myself... OK could have! It reminded me of my old Navy days. I used to fire the 5 inch gun on a destroyer: "target 15 inches (Jeanette) ....wind speed (from small fan on counter)... 2 knots from the east..gun elevation 45 degree angle (jenette holding me) ... prepare to lauch on signal from Captain. steady....fire. Direct hit !"
You guys can tell I have had a stressful week can't you. HA HA

Steve

Thanks BA
Always liked CMT and particularly liked Lily even though the menu was limited. Did not like Mae's upsell tricks, so thank you for saving me from another visit.

...actually turned out to be her old girl - Candy. As reported here before, terrible. Chinatown is really lousy these days. Lots of providers but almost universally awful. Makes be yearn for a trip to NYC or SanFran.

I was out and about today, and had an "urge" - you all know that feeling. Moreover, I really wanted a decent massage too. I had the numbers of some Woburn-area AAMPs from trusted members, but I knew that I was too late for a few of the gals who were reviewed here on "limited engagements".

Funds are a bit low, and I didn't want any upsell to FS, so eliminated the AAMPs and thought about hitting my old standby on Montvale Ave. But their massage isnt usually that strong, and I was very intent on getting the kinks worked out.

So, what's a poor monger to do? I finally decided to go - you guessed it - to the old reliable WW. Called 10 minutes out, and was told that Jessica and Susan were working.
The only negative for this visit was standing down in the little mudroom for a couple minutes because their doorbell seems to be intermittently on the fritz. I called again and Susan came down and let me in. When I showed her which doorbell I was pushing, it rang upstairs! I hate standing there like a doofus at the bottom of the stairs!

From there, everything was as-expected for a WW visit - she collected .6 House fee, and I got naked on the table undraped. She didn't seem to recognize me, but I know I've had her before - she's a typical Jessica protege, 30's with pleasant face, smile, and body but not a spinner or model. Jessica came in at some point to say hello and immediately recognized me and gave me a hug and kiss. This was a good thing because Susan had also asked if this was my first time here, and I had to explain it was more like my 20th and dropped some names other than Jessica's.

She asked if I wanted medium or strong, and I said strong. First, she used no oil, and kneaded my upper torso for a while, then used very tiny bit of oil and went to work on the shoulders, neck, and upper back.

I must say, Susan has the strongest thumbs I've ever encountered, and her massage was very very good. I'd say it was one of the better I've gotten this year. Some of you may not tolerate the shiatsu-style of pressing hard with the thumbs, but I love it - the harder the better!

Jessica is usually very good, too - but the way she dug those thumbs into my sore muscles, without hitting any sore spots or tender areas, was really relaxing! She spent about 15 minutes just on my neck and shoulders, with some upper back. Next, she moved to the whole back and worked down to my lower back.

Just then, I heard Jessica get a phone call and go down to answer the door (the bell had again failed). Once she opened the door, we heard the doorbell ring, as they tested it. I guess it takes a special touch!

When the newly-arrived monger was secure in the other room, Jessica came in and was speaking Chinese to Susan. I have no idea what they said, but the next thing I know, Susan is off to take care of the newbie, and Jessica is now my massage therapist. I got no problem with that! I love her HE technique, and her massage skills aint bad either.

She must have asked Susan where she left off, because Jessica was able to pick right up and do my lower back, arms, then legs. She uses more oil than Susan, but not too much. She also made a point of oiling and rubbing my crack for a while before moving down to the legs.

Here's where I got another pleasant surprise: usually, she will do light-touch and tease pre-flip, but then go get a wet towel and wipe the oil off first.
In my case, she transitioned nicely to the light-touch and teasing, without any interruption, and then got some lotion (not oil) and gave me an amazing sphincter/crack massage that included the boys and the entire groin area, and had my johnson trying to drill through the table in no time!

She did a few minutes of this amazing tease, asking "you like?" and I responded by lifting up higher to allow her access to the rod & reel...

After this unusual tease, it was time to flip. Here are the things I love about Jessica and WW:

- no rush; she must've rubbed my chest and nether regions for several minutes before she even made a move for my pole
- knows what she's doing: she was really building and building me up, but keeping me at bay
- no stupid moaning
- early-on, when my hand moved to her tits, the top came up, and the bra was pushed out of the way. She may not be a young spinner, but her b/c's have very nice nips - oh, and they got hard as I rubbed them between my fingers.
- she cleverly alternates hands so she can do some prostate work but then goes back to my nipples. She had me dying to explode several times!

Finally, I couldn't take it any more, and she knew it was time - she simply said "oh yeah, come on" once and I was allowed through the pearly gates! She also knows how long to milk it after the pop, which you know is a pet peeve of mine.

Next, something a little bit funny happened: I was basically putty at this point, when she goes to get a wet towel. I had no inkling of where or how much of an eruption I had, but she comes back with a little white bucket of hot water and a towel! Hah! Did I really spread the cream that much? I was still in la-la land, when she went over me from head-to-toe, and also had me flip back onto my stomach to do the back. She paid special attention to the boys and my crack.
I've just never seen a whole bucket put into use for my clean-up... but she did a nice job and there was no evidence left at the crime scene.

After the clean-up she did a very brief temple/head massage, and then it was done. Exactly an hour, and she helped me put on my socks (nice touch).

Originally, I was thinking I could probably tip Susan .3 since funds are short, but after getting the best of both worlds - Susan's strong massage, then Jessica's inventive extras - I of course gave J my usual .4 tip, which was all I brought. I think I may have even gone .5 if I had it cuz the last 10-15 minutes were pure heaven! She was of course happy to receive what I gave her, didn't count it, and sent me on my way with some tootsie rolls and chinese cookies.

I know there's nothing really new here for those of you who swear by WW, but maybe this will convince the rest of you that they are still the best with regard to knowing how to take care of their customers. They haven't raised their prices, and they take pride in what they do - never a sour face or a rushed ending!

Hope you get a chance to experience either J or S (or both ;)) soon!
Those of you who don't know what WW means, search Waltham and you can't miss it on this thread.

[QUOTE=KapitanKool]Has anyone visited Lavender Massage in Somerville?

[url]http://boston.craigslist.org/gbs/thp/1352824768.html[/url][/QUOTE]Lavender has been reviewed a few times by me and others. I would summarize the reviews as "mixed". You can find some of them with a search but I think I recall one favorable review did not include "Lavender" anywhere in the review so that will take some digging. Even though I am not terribly enthusiastic about the place I still visit from time to time because it is a convenient spot to get a quick 1/2 hour tune up for 40 + 40. I have zero chemistry with the provider. But sometimes that is a welcome change of pace from my favs with whom I get very involved.

Hey I'm kind of new at this. Ive been reading for a while but I never head the balls to sign up but Maria told me C.A.T. is deff. opening this week.
