Massage Parlor Reports

[QUOTE=Bignbald;1994746]Grottos,

It's this place. [URL]http://albany.craigslist.org/thp/4303808864.html[/URL].

All other reports I have heard said it was legit. Maybe the shutdown of GS offered a new opportunity.[/QUOTE]Yes that's it, Sorry I couldn't remember the ad...Seems there are tons of the AMPs and it gets confusing who is where.

They used to advertise a 4 hands massage which I had a couple months ago. Same older lady and she also has a younger one (inferior massage) who works there as well.

I think the older one is the owner or manager.

All other reports I have heard said it was legit. Maybe the shutdown of GS offered a new opportunity.[/QUOTE]I've been to this place a few times. The first time was about two months ago. I had a younger girl and she provided a HE. On the second visit I went with the 4 handed massage and left with blue balls. The mamasan at the time was a fairly hot looking lady in her mid 30's. She provided hands 3 & 4. She was having no hanky-panky on her watch. In fact she got pretty nasty when I tried to put her hand on my junk. Went back a third time, saw the mamasan and promply left.

It's probably a YMMV situation depending on who ya get.

Thank you to all that responded on what place this is.

To me, sounds like there are better options. Although may be dwindling which is a concern.

I will say this again briefly, for those working in such places. Donot ask for money in the middle of the massage. Thats how you get in trouble. Just do your normal job and people are mostly good and generous and you will get a tip. You may get larger tips actually because people donot like the interruption. Remember, people are paying for a massage, the tip is for the massage, and getting a massage, and if a small portion of the massage is more sensual, that's just a natural happening from the rest of the experience, after all the whole body is massaged, why exclude any part of it.

If providers viewed it this way, and had their liscence (which is the msot important thing apparently legally), they would not get in trouble.

Regarding the liscence, I will say this, whether they have it or not, I pretty much always have gotten an exellent theraputic massage at these places. I have no idea whether they have a liscence in the USA or NY State or not, but they do know how to give a massage properly.

Chances are your not going to get much action without hesitancy. Be careful they have been watching all 3 closely.

I went for a massage on Columbia st about 2 weeks ago. Very cute young woman took me upstairs. Massage was very good but a lot of interruptions for phone and people coming in. Damage was 0.8 for an hour. A little but not too much ass rubbing. Didn't really play with the boys at all. Flipped me over and continued with the massage on legs and chest. Said we were all done and no HE was offered. I tried letting her know that I would like something more but she said no way and that her boss would fire her. Kind of disappointed that nothing happened.

Had a session there for the first time.

Had Mary, round face, long black hair, short and slender, 30's I would guess.

She was wearing a low cut shirt and looked pretty inviting.

Massage started with towel covered, she massaged thru the towel for awhile.

Then it came off, and long strokes across my body.

She had no problem with me stroking her legs and butt.

After like 10 minutes, she asked me to turn over! Was stunned by that.

This was actually disappointing because the best part of a massage can be some teasing before the flip, missed that alot.

She immediately went to HE, fast, I kept having to slow her down.

I tried playing with her tits, but could only reach in a little.

She said boss would fire her.

So I was sittng up and playing with her tits a little while she resisted kind of for awhile, and she stroked me.

Finally after a few minutes of slowing her down, I laid back and gave up and let her finish me off.

So that out of the way quickly, she proceded to give me an awesome hard massage. It really was an exellent massage.

She asked "ok?" with what she was doing alot. Which was nice to ask, most of what she did was pretty hard so can see some people might want a softer touch She smiled alot. Not sure how much English she had, but she acted sweet.

At the end though, when I gave the $40 tip, she looked quite disappointed, and was asking for more, which I declined.

That stunk as demanding money when I was pretty generous, it seems most people give $35 here, turned me off.

Probably wouldn't see her again due to the money asking at the end; and due to no tease, and due to her hurrying and nerviousness.

Great massage though which I enjoyed a great deal. But have found most AMPs have highly skilled massage therapists, so that's not unusual. Whether they have a liscence or not, woman at AMPs clearly know how to perform a theraputic massage.

Just kind of annoys me that places get busted for not having a liscence, cause my experience has been nearly always get an exellent massage at these places. And I have been to liscenced USA born therapists too, they are not any better at the massage.

Here is my first review on the site. Let me start by saying I am a younger good looking guy so sometimes what happens with me is going to different I guess. A few times at AMPs I am told "we normally don't get your type in here." That's why the disclaimer. I used to go to GS but with the shut down had to find a new spot. Went to this place and met with Tracy. The first time I went the massage was ok. Too much lotion or oil, whatever she was using. If she could find a pressure between her hard rub and soft it would be a great massage. She asked if she could try something on me so I said anything you want. She reached between my legs and started going to town teasing the boys and rubbing the taint. Not going to lie it felt great because too many are way to gentle for my tastes. Got to the flip half way through the massage she went right for the HE. She let me reach under her shirt and bra and play with her breasts. I shot everywhere which be both laughed about. She finished with the massage and then the TS which wasn't the best because I could still feel the oil all over me. She helped me get dressed and I tipped and left. 65/40.

Went again and met with same girl. Left my tip ahead of time on the table. Same massage, her reach around that she tried on me the first time was even better. She must have been practicing on some of you. This time she was playing with my hole as well. Different but very acceptable. Flip and same thing, although tthis time she tried negotiating more money which didn't make me happy. I tipped ahead so she knew she wasn't going to have to worry. Gave her an extra 10 because she is a lot of fun and better than what I was getting at GS. The place is fairly discreet and I like that there are actually doors on the rooms. I will go back but tip at the end...65/50.

Looking to potentially try a SW or BP girl but don't know enough about it yet.

In answer to a previous thread about why concentrating on the licensing issue, you can see in this report that practicing a profession without a license is a felony, but the prostitution charge is a misdemeanor.

Perhaps it these AMPs advertised as "Shower & Sauna" and only charged for a sauna & shower, then technically they would not be offering a massage. When you get out of the shower you could lay down and they could dry you off. No license required for that, and besides you only pay for the sauna & shower, whatever else you can get is "free", no prostitution, no unlicensed massage, just saying.

Unfortunately the lone local place with what is actually a really nice table shower facility is massage only from what I have experienced and heard. Many places downstate that have a TS also get busted from time to time too--but, maybe there were just careless on PROCEDURE!. Also I would have to think the ones that are still around and have been for a long time are a bit smarter. After all, what LE is going to get butt-naked and get a TABLE SHOWER. "Sir, would you like me to washie-washie there?" From there, things can relax, if a person allowed their junk to be washed. They are not likely LE. The many TS places in NY, RI, NJ, FL, NV, etc that I have been to are a far better "experience" and massage.

2 visits in the past few weeks, and now thinking something is wrong here.

About 3 weeks ago, I went there after a long hard day at work. Got the hott (er), young (er) girl. Good technique on a massage, and I fell asleep on the table. Sensed her moving in and out of the room a few times during my nap. On the flip, she gave a nice HE, clean up and I tipped her $.4. When I got to my next stop, a local watering hole, I noticed that may wallet was about $60 lighter than it should have been. Since I had about $3 when I left the house, I stopped at an ATM. So I knew exactly what should have been in the wallet. Be careful. You snooze, you lose!

Last week, went there and got a new girl. About a 6 on the AMP scale. Massage was OK, but after the flip her HE was as mechanical as possible. She stared at the clock the entire time, no emotion or finesse. Just a tug. No fun.

Neither time did I see the 40-ish lady that was a regular there. While nothing to write home about looks / body wise. She gave a great massage and fantastic HE.

My point is that UNLICENSED MASSAGE is LE's go to charge because it's easy, and it's a Felony which gives them plea bargain ability. Much easier to prove too. Many think that if they just call it a body-rub they are safe, but in the unlicensed massage charge is the definition which would include body-rub. So just like the days of "speak-easies" you need to advertise and charge for something other than your main product, get paid for that and "give away" the body-rub. Besides no one can get a license without being an American Citizen.

Like you JRock I am a younger decent looking fellow and decided to make my inaugural visit to one of these places recently. So, I happened to be by the same place that you went to and was admittedly very nervous coming in. When I walked in I got Tracy and she asked me a bunch of questions: How did you find this place, did you call first, have you been here before. I told her I'd been to some places in the areas like it (not true) but hadn't been to this one and just happened to spot it while driving by. In the back of my mind there is always a concern about LE even though I did not intend to go for the full experience my first time in. So, yes, I didn't follow protocol and say I'd been there and only got down to my undies to see what'd happen. Tracy did give a hell of a massage (may be too rough for some) and fixed my neck and has some pretty big tits (which I love). We'll see if I muster up the courage to go the whole 9 yards next time. Also, I went in during broad daylight and there is some kind of business to the left of the building with windows looking out and a full parking lot. I know I know, feel free to bust my balls.
