Legit MT Not in Samsung or CC in Waikiki
[QUOTE=Magnod;1671377]What's the best legit massage provider not in CC or Sam Sung Plaza? I hate going to those places.[/QUOTE]The few Thai places in Century Square on Bishop Street are best for no nonsense legit therapy and discreet entrance and exit with underground parking. One of few is in the one former found in the Ala Moana KHON Condo but forgot their business name.
I shouldn't say this either

PlyFahh Thai Massage and Spa
I have been searching for a solid Legitimate provider to work on the areas that most closely represent "Old Football Injuries" and Decided to visit PLY FAHH Massage and Spa in the Waikiki Grand Hotel:

I have been watching their ads on CL for a few weeks and searching for reviews without result so decided to TOFTT. Or risk it anyway. It turned out to be a good move.
I Called Nichki (Phone XXX-1146) about 20 minutes after they posted a new ad on CL. It was late in the evening, and I think her partner Ann (Phone XXX-7498) had posted the ad. Nichki was pleasant on the phone even though I was calling middle of the night. I think Ply Fahh closes around 7PM.
Called the next day to schedule and was able to get in on a few hours notice. They do have a customer parking spot. If you ask it is a good bet you can avoid street parking. Zoo parking is a block or two away. Ply Fahh is on the second floor next to two other MPs I don't know much about. I didn't want to knock loud on the door in case another customer was trying to relax inside so I called from the hallway. Inside I met Ann who was pleasant and I think she was pretty hawt, but I admit I was on sensory overload. I generally have to be around a really attractive woman for a few minutes before I can tell how far above 7. 5 they are. Ann was heading out for a while and did not return before I left. I will report more on her later.
The place is cozy, it is not large. It is large enough for a couples massage. Nichki said they would not schedule two individual customers at the same time due to the size of the facility. They do have a reasonable shower and they keep plenty of clean towels and linens for the table and for moderate cover during massage. We both appreciated the shower because I was coming from work and wanted my feet pampered (or is it tortured?) and they don't play well with others after a hard day at work.
The massage hurt really good. All of it. Nichki has some strong hands and knows how to use her arms, elbows, knees, and anything else she needs to work the knots out from your scalp clear down to your toes. I do prefer a bit less oil or lotion, but I was able to shower on the way out this time and most of the residual has absorbed fairly well. Whatever she was using for lotion is nearly unscented, so I can live with it even if she never works me dry.
Nichki trained at the Hawaii Massage Academy a few years ago and had previously gone by Nikki. She changed her stage name because she was asked too often for services she was not willing to put on the menu (due to the other name being so well known). She is a single mother of a teenage child so I would peg her at 40 or a bit over that. She is 5' tall and sports a nice set of accessories I did not get to touch. But she was pleasant both times when she told me no extras. Ann is the girl in the picture they advertise with. She will be your choice if looks is your main criteria. I have not tried her yet so all I am able to review is Nichki. She looks nice enough. Say 6, Personality and Attitude both very nice. I'll say 9, Therapeutic Massage 9 or better. I melted like butter. I have set twice weekly appointments with Nichki for the next 4 weeks to see if there really is life (40 years) after football. I definitely plan to make this a regular break from the rat race.
Damage was 60 for an hour of deep tissue bodywork mixed with a number of refreshing legitimate modalities. A tip of 20 brought the total to 80. It worked out to 60 an hour anyway, because the massage ran over a good 15 minutes. Nichki seemed to get as involved in the massage as I was. We didn't hit the flip till 50 minutes in and she was not sending me out the door before she finished. I was the one who had to end the session. I really hated doing that. As always YMMV.

You may not have missed out on much
[QUOTE=Omelette; 1729128]This link is to another Therapist who took a schedule from this local bruddah but when I got there, was seen by another non Thai therapist, despite the Ad. Maybe cause I was not a Farangt, but, nonetheless, bad way to drum up business. Pretty face no mean shit if business practice is less then to be desired. Got better folks with better attitude out there so laters with this one. I can Take my money and referrals to friends elsewhere.
