AA Accupressure Lemon Grove (Cici)
I can tell now more people getting the C19 Vax as freeways are now more backed up in afternoon, fortunately for me my GPS routed me off the 94 and I was driving down the main drag in lemon grove when out of the corner of my eye I peeped a "Grand Opening" banner that seems to perpetually hang from every AMP in SD County. I decided to stop in and first thing I noticed was wasn't called "massage" but AA Accupressure. With some leftover funds in my wallet I popped in and was greeted by Cici, after temp check she asked me if I had been there before. I feigned surprise and anger asked her how she didn't remember me from previous four visits (I had never been here before LOL). After profusely apologizing for not recognizing me she led me to a decent room to get comfortable as far as I know was only one there. Cic is late 30's maybe 40's ok body. Ok face. IE your typical AMP girl. I asked for a hard pressure massage and unfortunately that meant elbows on my bones which actually hurt. . after twenty minutes of this she asked me to flip. Somehow a cover magically appeared on me and a CBJ proceeded, for those that read my other reports not a fan of CBJ, I asked for some 69 as was feeling a little hungry. She continued with the lame CBJ and than I had her mount me RCG after few minutes of this finished the session with some mish.
HF $.5, Tip $. Overall not a bad experience except for massage, wasn't rushed and actually had her finish with a decent scalp massage. On the way home was still driving city streets and saw another joint Sunrise Massage where will have to try out sometime. Normally in Lemon Grove I used to go to 'USpa" for the FS fix now I can add this a cheap alternative. Looks like a one girl shop as far as I can tell but recommend if in Lemon Grove area.
Confirmed Report on How They Get Paid
[QUOTE=Bob521;5268950]I've collected a little more direct data and can say from my sample (based on my girlfriend and business partner) that the girl gets about $22-$25 out of a $60 house fee. And now with AB5 (the 1099 rule) many (not all) are issuing W2's instead of 1099. And so they get a pay stub with withholding etc. Just like a conventional paycheck. I really have trouble believing this is widespread yet or that workers would accept the concept of a conventional paycheck with deductions. But, of course they still get paid by the massage. So the paycheck uses an hourly pay rate like $15 per hour and then the number of hours is a plug number. So if she had 12 massages one week, at a $25 negotiated price that's $300. At $15 per hour rate they would book 20 hours of work. Oh. And one more thing, they would impute a tip (like 20%) and add it to the wages.
Bob.[/QUOTE]Confirmed your payout scheme with a provider. She used to work in these parlors and is now indie. She also said that they , the masseuse, keep all the tips.
I've seen Eva at Diamond Spa for quite some time and she works 6 days / week. She never negotiates nor asks for the tip but the 60 is what people have been giving her according to the reviews and FS is never on the table, similar to CiCi at leisure spa like some people say. But in this case if Eva sees 5 people / day she gets 300/ day which is 1800/ week at the low point. Which could be about 90,000/ year tax free.
Oriental Natural Treatment
[QUOTE=MikeDago;5268294]First time in Vista. Didn't find much here so I tried Rubmaps. There was a really old review about Orient Natural Treatment on Sycamore (close to my hotel) so I took a shot. Really good and I mean really good massage (she went by the name Allison) and that was it. Darted out the door while saying "massagy finished". Now since the massage was that good, I actually was ok about it.
Will someone please recommend a place that has fun endings instead of the one I got?
Thanks.
MD.[/QUOTE]For Vista I have not checked since before Covid but Fortune Spa just off the 78 Hwy was good for HE. Your best bet is San Marcos: Holy Massage is my go to and Massage Wen (although it was said to be closed on this Forum). Then Crystal Massage, and Sakata. Just west of Vista in east Oceanside on O'side Blvd is Zai Sheng Body Foot Massage, Bon Massage, Yijiangnan Massage and Relax near I-5, and on the Coast Hwy is Ocean Day Spa. All are HE. I don't know about FS as I'm not into that. It seems several North County AMPs have new owners and are more "Happy"! Cheers, TTT.
