I found this article this morning. It appears that Cici was using massage therapists that had no massage licenses. Another one bites the dust in St. Charles. It has now gone from 7 AMP's to 3 in a short period of time. If they keep this up I am going to have to move. LOL. SaintChuck.

Is it that difficult to find girls with licenses?

[QUOTE=DoctorWelby;2924301]"She took money with the intent of giving him a massage". OH the humanity.[/QUOTE]I was cracking up when I read that part "intent of giving a massage. " I just hope that they don't give her the death penalty for her crimes against humanity! SaintChuck.

[QUOTE=DMichaels69;2889110]I stopped by Golden Ratio. I did a you-turn and walked out. St Charles may be drying up.[/QUOTE][URL]https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=6&ved=0ahUKEwju27zCxO7MAhVBph4KHUWNCMUQFgg-MAU&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.kcchronicle.com%2F2016%2F05%2F06%2Fmassage-business-employee-face-charges-in-st-charles%2Faek4zhe%2F&usg=AFQjCNGVzx8RjsHqsXB0zz3C3d2ER1jwhQ[/URL] The picture in this photo will explain why you made a you-turn. On 2 different occasions I also made the you-turn when I ran into the Golden Girls. SaintChuck.

[QUOTE=DMichaels69;2924306]Is it that difficult to find girls with licenses?[/QUOTE]Yes. And it is also difficult and very time consuming to transfer a license from another state to an Il license.

Even more difficult to get a license to work in Chiraq and get a license.

There is much to getting a license in this state. Way to much.

One of the most difficult in the USSA.

[QUOTE=SaintChuck;2924065]Yes there are legit spas on BP, but I am fairly confident that the vast majority of people trolling through the ad's on BP aren't looking for a legit massage. If there is some woman who is upper middle class or upper class, I think it is safe to say that she won't be trolling BP looking for a place to book her next massage. My point was that when an AMP advertises on BP it gives them a certain label whether they are legit or not. I just thought that the owner would try and distance herself from the type of advertising that could get her thrown into a pool that she no longer want's to swim in. SaintChuck.[/QUOTE]Just did a quick BP search, and they no longer have an ad there. Only one place listed in St. Charles, on Main St. I don't think I know.

There is an ad from yesterday.

You're a ninja when it comes to finding these things.

[QUOTE=DMichaels69;2924306]Is it that difficult to find girls with licenses?[/QUOTE]In AMP's yes it is very difficult and why should they get a license?

To get a license in ILL it takes a background & criminal check, fingerprints, 600 hours of study, thousands of dollars in tuition fees and then a state exam. After they get their license if they go to work in an AMP and it gets busted and they get charged there goes the license. If they have no license and work in an AMP and it gets busted they just move to another city or state and start working again.

Also, I would think that the earnings of a legit licensed massage therapist are nowhere near what an AMP girl can make. Some AMP girls make over 100k a year, some even more plus it's usually tax free. I seriously doubt that the legit licensed therapist working at a health / fitness place makes anywhere near that.

I never went to an AMP for a legit licensed massage, who are we kidding. I went for a nice massage and maybe some extras. Didn't have to be the best massage but if she honestly tried, didn't short me on time and the extras were ok that's all I cared about.

Doesn't bother me that most AMP girls are not licensed. If I was one of them I wouldn't bother either.

I had some free time over the weekend and decided to stop in and see what really is going on at Shangri la. When I walk in string toy is behind the counter wearing a long flowered dress. She looked great! A big hug and another tour of the two properties by her was nice. I ask about getting a massage from her. She says no sorry. But introduces me to a short, heavy girl who would give me my massage. I pull string toy aside and ask about extras like we have done for over a year. She says she can't that St Charles has gone crazy. I say ok, I understand and start to leave, she says what about my massage with the umpa loompa looking girl, I decline. Now it gets weird. She talks me into a reduced foot massage. I go into a beautiful room, change into paper shorts they provide and sit down for my foot massage. The door opens and some middle aged Chinese man walks in with a tub of hot water and says "Foot massage yes?" By him! I grab my phone and say next time. I have an emergency call. I dress, leave, and leave him 10.00. Like I said weird.

Glad you figured out a way to get out there.

So she screws you over by giving you a fat chick then a dude. You don't do the foot massage and give him a tip. This is not a destination for mongers.
Hilarious bro! I hope lesson learned.

Hilarious bro! I hope lesson learned.[/QUOTE]This is the exact reason that I never went to check the place out, and I drive by it everyday. I knew that there is no way in hell she would risk losing that place by doing something stupid. It's obvious that the place cost some body a shit load of coin. Also if you check out the FB page there were photos of the 2 Asian dudes that give massages. Even if by some remote chance she felt like making an extra hundred bucks, she sure is hell isn't going to risk it now with every thing that has been going down in St. Charles and Batavia. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it is time to put this one to bed and move on. SaintChuck.

The new spa in St. Charles is nice it's an actual real Spa go there and get real treatment has two nice saunas multiple rooms couples rooms and also has lockers you can store your stuff in all I can say is A+++++++ actual good service and licensed girls kid makes Massage Envy look like shit.

Try it out for yourself rooms are high-end Services is high end you almost feel like you're downtown Chicago.
