CheonSu Spa, Salem, CT.
Pull around the back of the building to park and enter the spa. Standard are&T spa. Masks optional. Table shower and sauna are available. If you want the sauna make sure you tell them first so they can heat it up. Overall a good experience but I will not return. The ladies there are a little older and not really attractive (to me). 70 + 40.
Great Beauty Spa, Windsor Locks, CT.
If you see someone at the front desk you can knock on the door. Otherwise call and see when and if they can fit you in. Basically a are&T with some extras. They have a table shower but you need to ask. They do not seem to typically offer it. Masks optional. I will most likely not return soon as the hostess was not attractive. Session was ok and as expected. On the way out she told me that they will have two new girls soon. I do not know if that means two new grandmothers or two new younger ladies. 60 house. Tips go from 40 to 140.

Based on a recommendation from a fellow board member I had a session at Spa Castle in Middletown. I had known about this spa but pre-COVID I usually went to are&Ts in East Hartford or Wethersfield. Call first for an appointment or if they can let you right away. The spa is newer, fairly large inside, clean, and well kept up. Temperature check and masks are required (For therapist and customer). Standard are&T script. My hostess was middle aged but nice looking. I spotted an older women in the office area. I have been told that there is also a younger women working there. The session was as expected and was actually very nice. I rate my experience an A. While getting dressed the therapist did a full sheet / towel change and was cleaning the surfaces in the room. Table shower available but sauna shut down. I will most likely return if my other spas do not open. 70 + 40[/QUOTE]It is very encouraging to hear that they are conscientious about safety procedures. If I"m going to go back, it will only be if I am sure they are thorough and consistent. None of the "mask optional" places.
My biggest concern is the head cradle. Did you happen to see her cleaning that area?
Friend of mine went yesterday and was displeased. He had been there twice in the last 6 weeks and gave a substantial tip in advance on all 3 visits (70). Prior visits got UTC top and OTC bottom. Attempt at anything yesterday was rebuffed. Same older woman all 3 times. Not my kind of place because there is no table shower.

I recently visited a private club out of state. Typical "new normal" procedure. Temperature check, hand sanitizer, and masks. But there was a new twist. They had an ample supply of the disposable masks. They had me switch out the mask I had on with a fresh one from their supply. I just thought it was interesting and wanted to share the information.
That being said. Do as I say not as I do. Do not travel out of state or very far just to see a provider. It is just not worth the extra exposure / risk.
BR is open. Temperature check upon entry, and a mask as well. Your typical mid aged"rubbers" who have been there for a couple of years. Clean linens and mask removed (mine) for session. Otc and Utc (up top) allowed. Massage was good / great, flip was typical; Standard. 6 + . 4 tip. Was hoping to find new talent. Will repeat in due time.

Anything going on with the Bristol Spas? Haven't really seen any reports? If anyone has any news or reviews let me know (public or PM).

She Offered HJ reluctantly and nothing else even with offered extra. I didn't complete to finish line because it was rushed and bad. 6 + 2 tips as I was not satisfied. Probably I wouldn't repeat.
