Spa Professional Body Work
This place advertises under the Massage section of BP and is located in Medford Sq. Called and was told they didn't have any availability but 5 minutes later I get a call asking if I forgot my appoitment!
Was led to a small waiting room by, I think "Lois" who I hoped was giving the massage. She turns on the TV, puts in a DVD and I'm wondering how long of a wait this is going to be. In a few minutes Leslie comes in and leads me to a message room. Leslie is young and on the larger side but very pretty with large top. She tells me she only has a half hour available and it is $60. A little steep for a 1/2 but I'm there so ok. Although she asked what type of massage I wanted it didn't matter, this is more of a body rub and she proceeded to rub warm lotion (and lots of it) everywhere. On the flip which I rolled over onto lotion soaked towels she continued with the rub and an ok finish with OTC roaming / hot towel clean up. Damage was $60 + 40.
Based on the quality of massage and price I would not repeat. If anyone has had a better experience here or has info on Lois' skills please advise.

"Colours" listen to the song, not about hating or being racist
[QUOTE=Amp Slave;1247837]I also heard the same type story downtown in CT when a non white robbed a girl who was alone in the shop and she did not call the cops because she was told not to. I remember telling her to call the cops regardless and that she could have been hurt or maybe the next time she could. Girls just be careful when dealing with customers.[/QUOTE][url]Http://www.songmeanings.net/m/song/95435/[/url]
I m a white guy with a brother in law who grew up Roxbury and have 2 wonderful nieces from this inter racial marriage.
I can only speak from non 1st person perspective from intimate personal discussions with him and his brothers on race, profiling and growing up in the city during busing problem years too. I m not asking for any special privileges because of this.
I actually posted this " report" several years ago and replayed the annecdote a few days ago I. Response to this recent "ad" and was wondering about the Asian providers cultural perception on race / racism.
My observations on immigrant Asian "workers" in this hobby over the years tend to be recurring and their spoken choice words are more than isolated instances and we saw a report of a discriminatory ad and wondered out loud about the theme of culture and race from this.
We all need to continue to work on being "culturally" sensitive and "culturally competent" in such a complex world.
Enough with the race stuff

Attempted to TOFTT here as well, didn't work out but some useful info:
[QUOTE=Mike Hunter; 1245382]Went to new place on wash in brighton. In an office building with parking lot.
I didn't get a good feel for the place, so opted for half hour which as advertised. 35 soft massage everywhere except the twig and berries. And was told I could do my self no encouragement at all. Was in and out just under 20 min.
I may repeat cause susan said the is a differ girl so we'll see.[/QUOTE]URL of their ad: [url]http://boston.backpage.com/TherapeuticMassage/grand-opening-total-health-center-massage-brighton/5673923[/url]

I stopped in a day or 2 ago in the early evening. Wasn't really planning on it, but was in the area and recalled that the ad said "walking in" OK, so thought I'd try doing so. Word to the wise. The entrance is all the way around the back of the building. There is an an asian nail salon / spa in the front, with which they are not associated. Pertty good amount of street parking available on Washington St nearby. The parking lot behind the building and close to the rear entrance is also pretty tucked away / out of view of the main street. There is a sign on the main (rear) door saying something like "Smile, you're on camera." A bit disconcerting for our purposes, but it's just the main rear door through which people would walk in to go to several different businesses.
This place is downstairs in the basement. I walked in, and there was nobody at the desk. Waited for a minute or two, thought I could hear some movement behind the door to the hallway in the distance. Probably just someone getting a massage. There was no bell and nobody showed, so I walked back out.
Decided to call the number from the ad and asked the woman who answered if she'd be available in a few minutes as I was nearby. She said,"You can no come right now, I working now." She was hurried but polite. What we can take away is that it is only one girl at least sometimes, she will answer the phone during your session, and it is probably best make an appointment.
Just wanted to offer all this intel. I will make an appointment and report back soon, as the prices are quite reasonable.
Yor right! The matrix revisited!
[QUOTE=Joe Fish;1248341]This looks like the same building that Matrix Health use to be in. Had some great times there. Unfortunately, they got raided by Quincy police and shut down. I'm sure there were 6 or 7 unsolved murders in the City of Quincy at the time, but they just HAD to close this 'dangerous' unlawful place that was bothering nobody.[/QUOTE]Your absolutely correct that this is the 'matrix building". It has had several places in the last few years (besides barbara) most of which have been disappointing. This one does sound promising though. And although the 'murders' in Quincy at the time probably did have some impact on the matrix raids it had more to do with owner / management backstabbing and revenge which I learned directly from the 'cat's' mouth!
