Recon report - I Dream of Genie
[Color=DarkBlue]Even though it was a bit out of the way for me, I decided to visit old Mike Ono's place after I finished work on Monday. When I arrived, the "receptionist" --- a short gal in her mid-40s with A-cups --- took me into one of the back rooms. Told her I wanted one hour and asked if she would be my therapist. She said "Next time," took the house fee (.8), and told me to get ready for TS.
A few minutes later, another gal named Genie (as in, rub the bottle and magic things happen) knocks and comes in. She was a cute thing, probably mid-30s, and seemed to have a good attitude: friendly, even a bit mirthful, but also a tad reserved. So, at that point it was off to the TS, where I enjoyed a comfortably hot and thoroughly soapy scrubdown. She expressed concern a couple times that the water might be too hot (I told her it wasn't) and, when she got to one point and asked permission, I was thinking that this might not turn out to be the session I originally anticipated. Nevertheless, she rinsed me off and we returned to the room.
Genie had me lie face down and said she would return in "one minute." She came back with a pair of full-size towels, slightly damp and nicely heated, and layed one across my back & shoulders, the other across my lower back and thighs. She took a dry towel and layed that over both the warm damp towels. Then, she climbed onto the table and did a very nice back walk for about 10 minutes, covering everything from feet to shoulders. I was starting to feel very good by that point.
Afterward, as the towels had started to lose their warmth, she removed them and dried me off. Then she took some talc powder and sprinkled it on my back and legs and proceeded to give a very decent medium massage. Again, she covered everything from scalp and shoulders down to the calves. Genie also worked out kinks in my calve and thigh muscles by sitting in a RCG position (with me still face down) and applying some creative stretches there. Then, she turns around and, while seated on my upper thighs, grabs my arms and pulls up to give my back and shoulders a good stretching. All in all, the massage was very thorough and competent. Then, she has me flip over.
On the flip, she massages the shoulders, arms, neck, and scalp some more, before asking (more by a look and a raise of her eyebrows than by saying anything) if she missed anything. A simple nod and a glance from me, and she proceeded to provide the finishing touches to a very satisfying session. Roaming was allowed during the last past.
The entire session was a bit more than an hour, probably 75 minutes, but Mike Ono's receptionist didn't knock on the door or shout anything from without. It was completely unrushed and completely satisfying. I tipped a bit more than normal (.65) because of the extra time she took and the extra techniques she used. Total = $.45
I will repeat with her, if she's still around when I return in a week or so. (I also want to work on that receptionist, to see if I she will actually take care of me "next time." I give it a 60/40 chance of success.)[INDENT]

Checked Out CL Post on Asian Massage
Call the add and got directions to a place called Day Spa off of RT 50 in FallsC. Went down the stairs and was greeted by the mamasan and told I would have to wait 20 minutes. So she stuct me in a room and I waited for about 10 then the mamasan came back and asked if I wanted a shower. Of course I said yes and then was escorded back to a shower room and where I had to take my own shower. Just a small room with a shower and some soap. After I completed my shower, which I was hoping for some help but no luck, I went back to the room and waited a few more minutes when a Korean lady in her mid 30's showed up named Mimi. Was cover with a blanket and she proceed with the massage. It was a good massage and she cover all parts of the body except for sensitive parts. She worked on me for a good hour. So the massgae was decent. There seemed to only have two ladies there performing the service. I heard 4 others come and go while I was there. Must have told them the time line and they left. It was. 80 for 1 hr and a gave. 20 tip. The bottom line if you are looking for more than a standard massage I would not recommend this place. Once again a CL deadend.
