Any intel on this lady? Advertises FBSM / Nuru on switter and this website: [URL]https://fbsm-directory.wixsite.com/victoria-anderson[/URL].
Pics looks pretty good but Mannassas is a bit of a haul for me and her website is a bit longwinded and uses my number one red flag word "tantric" so I'm hoping for intel before taking the plunge.

I contacted her once to see about scheduling an appt but she wanted too much real-life info as part of her screening process. Plenty of other, less expensive, FBSM options around that don't have those requirements.
As far as advertising tantric services, that's a relatively new development and I think you're right to be skeptical as it might be nothing more than marketing hype. It can also be an excuse to do only soft touch and nothing even close to an actual massage.

[/INDENT]
[U][b]ARRIVAL[/b][/U]
[INDENT][b]Day & Time:[/b] Friday, 4pm
[b]Appointment:[/b] No, but can be made
[b]Door Wait:[/b] Less than 15 seconds
[b]Greeting:[/b] The MMS, a fun, friendly little package (all 5'-0" of her), always answers the door and takes you immediately to the room.
[b]Fee:[/b] I opted for the full hour (80).
[/INDENT]
[U][b]AMENITIES[/b][/U]
[INDENT][b]Waiting Area:[/b] There's really no waiting area, with a screen & TV and such. Once you step inside, there's basically an open foyer that leads to the office and the back area.
[b]Shower / Sauna:[/b] This AMP has [u]both[/u] a shower [u]and[/u] a sauna, and both are clean and in excellent condition. The shower is a large, stand-up DIY semi-circular enclosure with a pair of sliding doors. There's plenty of clean wash cloths, liquid soap, and shampoo available. The floor of the enclosure is clean and free of any scum. No smells of mildew, emanating from some dark, remote corner, attack your olfactory senses upon entering the area. The sauna, a wooden structure with glass panels, sits next to the shower enclosure. It's inside temperature fluctuates between 110 and 125 degrees Fahrenheit, and there is a small pan for creating steam, if desired.
[b]Bathroom:[/b] The bathroom is close to the front of the inner hallway. It is clean, well-maintained, and also free of any odd or lingering odors. Soap and clean towels are readily available.
[/INDENT]
[U][b]ROOM[/b][/U]
[INDENT][b]Privacy:[/b] There are four or five rooms toward the back of the inner hallway, with a (lockable) door and floor-to-ceiling walls. All offer reasonable quietude within.
[b]Table:[/b] The tables are broad and long, sufficient for most body types, with a face hole at the head of the table. The hole is draped with a small, clean sheet or towelette.
[b]Sheets & Towels:[/b] The sheets and towels in the room are clean and, at the end of each session, are removed and laundered.
[b]Lighting:[/b] Lighting resembles what one might find in an office building of this type - a fluorescent panel in the ceiling, and a dimmer switch for a wall sconce.
[b]Music:[/b] The MMS or the therapist will turn on a small CD player in the room to provide ambience. The music is usually some soft Oriental, classical, or other easy listening genre.
[/INDENT]
[U][b]SESSION[/b][/U]
[INDENT][b]Wait Time:[/b] Since I arrived without an appointment, and because the one girl (aside from MMS) was still attending another customer, I had to wait about 15 minutes all told. Part of that time was spent in the shower and sauna. Other than that, the wait was negligible.
[b]Therapist:[/b] Lisa has gone back home for a brief 9according to MMS) vacation but is expected to return. In the mean time, a new therapist named Julie is working. She'd been there for three days (since 28 August). She's what many on these boards would find compelling: tallish, about 5'-8", trim with a little belly fat, probably in her late 30s or early 40s, with a slender face, dark brown shoulder-length hair, enhanced 36-Cs, and partially trimmed. A reasonable FBAS rating would be 7 / 7 / 7 / 8.
[b]Communication:[/b] Julie has decent English skills and can be conversant during the session. I found no communication barriers.
[b]Roaming:[/b] I don't usually make a habit of roaming, but I'm almost certain it would not be rebuffed in any way.
[b]Skills:[/b][indent][u]Shower[/u] As mentioned above, the shower was a DIY affair, but the water pressure was good and the temperature can be adjusted to a satisfying hot, if so desired.
[u]Acupressure[/u] Julie's acupressure work is good. It's not the best I've had, by far, but what she possibly lacks in long-term experience she more than makes up for in coverage. From head, neck, shoulders, back, arms, glutes, thighs, calves, and feet, she worked all the muscle groups. She clearly understands muscle physiology to some extent, as her technique did not work counter to the directions of the muscles. In addition, she gave good bends and stretched to the arms [u]and[/u] the legs, as well as working the fingers and toes.
[u]Back Walk[/u] Because she is taller than many girls, I was ambivalent about back-walking. However, when she took her shoes off and announce "[i]I do back walk now[/i]," I didn't object. And, unlike some therapists, she did not place excessive weight when doing this. She asked if there was too much pressure (not at all), and she spent most of the time on the thighs and calves. She also covered me with a sheet beforehand, which always makes back-walking a bit easier for both parties.
[u]Flip[/u] When the time came and she asked me to turn over, she came close to me and asked what I wanted. I decided to press things a bit and, lo! and behold, she left the room for about 30 seconds before returning, dimming the lights, and getting more comfortable herself.. Long story short: CBJ for a spell, with DATY as well, and then a well-oiled Standard (?) NoVA finish with her sitting astride me RCG.
[u]Afterwork[/u] Following the conclusion of things, she offered more acupressure for the back, which I accepted.
[/indent][b]Session Length:[/b] The session easily lasted the full hour, and maybe a bit longer, without complaint from MMS. One of the things about this place is that one is seldom, if ever, shorted on time.
[b]Clean-Up:[/b] Julie brought me some moist, hot towelettes to wipe away the oil/lotion from the session, along with some Scope to freshen my breath. (I guess the coffee I'd drank earlier in the day was still lingering.)
[b]Tip:[/b] Because this session was beyond what I had anticipated, even with respect to the acupressure, I offered 90.
[/INDENT]
[U][b]DEPARTURE[/b][/U]
[INDENT]Julie brought me a couple small bottles of cold water, as it was fairly hot and humid outside, and then took me to the front where the MMS saw me to the door. And, of course, there was the bowl of peppermint lifesavers, mints, and assorted small candies.
[/INDENT]
[U][b]OVERALL[/b][/U]
[INDENT]I've been hot and cold on my recommendations of this place, usually due to the therapist's attitude. If the MMS is the therapist, my recommendation is always "two thumbs up". For this visit and with this new therapist (Julie), I'll give a qualified "two thumbs up". This was her third day there, and the service was very good, but I want to try another session with her before I solidify my rating. Just call me conservative in that regard. Nevertheless, at the current time, most will likely enjoy their visit.

For some reason, the "½" character did not show up in the rating.
The FBAS rating should have read 7 / [B]7½[/B] / 7 / [B]8½[/B], instead.
Went by last Friday and today both around noonish and not sure if due to uncle or vacay even tried calling and only get leave message bit both times it's been close. Just a heads up for any mongers coming in from far as I am. More to follow I may take one last trip to hope to get one last try at Coco or Bella that were two of my favs.

Session was on a bed and she laid down for a lot of the session. Was able to roam everywhere except inside the panties. A little high priced for services offered.
[QUOTE=DMV8454;3931803]Place is part of a office complex, but has it's own separate entrance from the street. The attendant I had was curvy, early 40's (with several tattoos. Said it was her first week working here.
Skipped the TS for more massage time. Massage quality was pretty good and was tailored to my liking with 2 pops as requested. Even though the massage lasted the full hour, TS was offered afterwards to wash off the oil and was much appreciated. Saw two other decent looking girls so may try them in the future.[/QUOTE]What place are you talking about?

She has not been F / S in the past and really stepped up her marketing since the FOSTA passed. I believe she is taking advantage of the darkness and hoping to gain new clients. Her rates are too high for her restricted menu IMO. There is much more available out there. Those seeking a restricted menu may enjoy her company, she is very pretty with a hot ass body.

Speaking from past experience, I've found that a provider advertising "tantric" services typically charges far more than the session is actually worth.
Long time lurker, first time posting. So I thought I would put up a few reviews in Nova.
McLean Cream Spa in McLean. Nice clean secluded place with easy parking. You do have to walk past a couple of businesses in the building to get to it. Two women there. One in her 50's with man mades. The other is in her 20's with a very slender frame. Great TS, allows roaming, and Nova finish. Can't recommend due to the doorbell constantly ringing and the masseuse having to answer the door interrupting the massage.
Gigi is an AA masseuse that typically advertises on them. She has 2 spots, one in Alexandria and one in Falls Church. She has a Serena Williams build and offers full Service. She shares the Alexandria location with Angelique. Both spots are high rises and safe.
Lucy Thai. Falls Church location in private apartment building. Nice massage with a Russian finish. That's it and there are no extras.
Jane. Vienna location in basement of an office building. She gives the best massage and is a very attractive Chinese woman in her early 30's. A little OTC roaming is allowed but nothing else with a Nova finish. She advertises as Jenny with massage and waxing.
Kitty Kat and Kay are both reportedly gone but have other girls at the same location in Fairfax apartment building. They are Thai and very attractive and provide FS with a typical Thai massage.

Suzy works there with her. I was bummed as their previous location was so close to me. Can't get out to Tyson's as quick.

[QUOTE=BunkerBuster;3933236]You missed your calling as a home inspector / appraiser. LOL.[/QUOTE]Well, I [U]am[/U] an inspector & appraiser, of sorts, my friend.
(BTW, I'll be sending you a PM shortly. BOLO.). :cool:
[QUOTE=NavenRJohnson;3932573]What place are you talking about?[/QUOTE]Sounds like he's talking about Lovely Therapy in Sterling. Since they reopened they now do TS after massage. That is fairly unique in the area.
I'm going to be in the area next month and was wondering if there was a shop you would recommend. I'll probably be staying in Manassas but am willing to make a 30 min or so drive. Any advice would be appreciated.
