Any advice where I might stop this weekend for a nice relaxing massage north of Grayling to St Ignace. Seems to be slim pickins in this area.
This place is actually real. Had a great experience. I think it was the first or second day they was open. It in a plaza in the middle of Traverse. They have a table shower. My massage therapist was an attractive asiann in her 20's. Kept it professional, no extras and I didn't ask since it was the first visit, but YMMV. Its a block from the sheriff's department but is a legit business so I wasn't to worried. Good luck.

Just tried the new spa. Excellent massage. Eighty bucks for the hour and she actually went over by 10 minutes. When does that ever happen? Maybe just trying to generate repeat business since they're new. I actually tried to tip her for the extra ten minutes and she told me to save my money for next time. My masseuse was "Angela," forty-something I would guess and clearly experienced. She had some of the same moves that my chiropractor uses. As Broadway Jay noted, YMMV I was quite happy with the experience. Seniors can PM me for details. SG.

On Saturday, August 24, Asian Massage opened in Traverse City. They are located in the Woodmere Commons area, to the left of the TC Tennis and Pickleball business.
They are affiliated with another spa downstate. Their staff is young, and well experienced. Very, very friendly, warm, touchy feely type personalities. The kind of girl who takes you by the arm and says step right in. I have an opening for you right now! Their door fee is $80. I have been there twice. The first time the therapist collected the fee afterwards, the second time a different therapist collected the fee prior to the treatment. Strangely enough, both therapists were named Amy. As others have said, they also have a great table shower there, and that option is included in the door fee. Just tell them that you want the table shower and massage. They will provide a robe and slippers for you to wear as you go between the massage room and the table shower room. After the table shower, I was treated to a OK massage, and the flip was very pleasurable. There was no tip negotiation during the massage, and they were well pleased with my offerings. Gave me a hug, and patted my ass as they walked me to the door, telling me to come back again soon! It's almost too good of an experience for Traverse City. YMMV, but I really couldn't have expected more. Hurry in and treat them well.
Had a great experience at the new massage AMP. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Collected the eighty at the desk on entrance. My masseuse was maybe in her forty's didn't catch her name. Little bit of a table malfunction with head rest but all in all was a excellent experience. I haven't experienced a table shower as of yet and unfortunately another gentlemen walked in shortly before me. So didn't bother to ask about it. Will have to try it next time.
After not having much offerings in Traverse City for about a year, I am happy to report that a second new AMP is opening in Traverse City tomorrow. It will be named 3257 SPA, and is located at Racquet Club Drive, in the Logan's Landing area. The name will help identify which complex it is in. It is just around the corner of Jenny's Cherry Blossom Spa, in the first strip of offices that face S. Airport Road. Amy, who set up the Asian Massage on Woodmere, was on site at 3257 SPA today today, rushing to install furnishings and making it ready to open. I was able to sample, Melody, a young Asian therapist from Chicago who did a very nice massage and finish. Her English was good, and she has a very pleasant personality. The door fee is $80, and their hours are 8 am-9 pm. They will have a grand opening advertisement on Skip the Games, where you can get their phone number, as I don't believe we are allowed to post that information ourselves. Enjoy gentlemen!
Had anyone visited Cherry Blossom / TC Asia / Kaya's since the new shops opened up? Wondering if they have expanded their menus now that there are quality alternatives. I've never actually heard that anyone had luck at Kaya's but it still feels like that'd be their business model.
Has anyone visited Cherry Blossom / TC Asian / Kaya's since the new shops opened up? Wondering if their menus have expanded now that there's a quality alternative. Not that Kaya's was a real winner but it always feels like they should offer more than they do.
I went to the spa. It was business as usual so to speak. Had a major problem though. I requested a certain masseuse. She was there and started the massage. About 15 minutes into it she switched with a different masseuse. They never asked or gave me a warning. I was face down so I didn't even realized it happened. That is bad business if you ask me. I will never go back to that establishment since they broke my trust. Besides the switch, everything was good and smooth. They never would tell me why they did it.
Had a Visit Today and I must say it sure is nice to have some options in town now after going so long with nothing. And now we have multiple choices!
Good Massage and more than happy on the flip. Just wish they had a table shower like the woodmere place.

Found Another New AMP this one is in Benzonia. Across from McDonalds. Didn't have time to stop there Today But if any of you have been there please share! I will try to report back after I make it out there.

DM for details.
Not the normal experience at Woodmere location. Disappointed. New face. I didn't catch her name maybe in early 30's guessing.
I dropped in with no appointment asked for 90 min paid 1. 3 and led into room. Waited for little while for masseuse to come in. Then was told that could only do a hour after already on table that had another appointment coming in (Fine understand I walked in. Wish she would have told me that upfront but is what it is). While doing massage had her leave to answer phone or door bell ring about 5 different times which completely killed the mood. I did not directly see but pretty sure she was wearing latex gloves as could hear the gloves and feeling was more clinical then relaxing. Towards end everything felt very rushed. Guessing the 90 min turned into a 30-40 min when all said and done.
She was nice and did give me my change back from the 90 min upfront charge to the. 8 hr charge. Still gave her a tip but not my normal tip. Still felt like I over paid for the service and quality I normally receive.
Next time will make a appointment and ask for one of the face's I am familiar with. Hopefully this is just a one time incident.
But as always your YMMV. So hopefully someone else got a better experience.

Maybe it's a good thing if the door is locked maybe they are working with no interference.

As is always my frustration with AMPs everywhere, just when you get comfortable with a person or two at the massage parlor they go and change everyone working there. Went today and saw three new faces, not recognizing a single one. My massage was fine, but she had to use google translate to even manage a simple yes or no to "Are you new here"? Answer was yes she is new. Experience basically the same as before, but starting all over building a rapport. I am sure racquet club will be the same since when I had my last visit there she said she was heading back to Chicago before it started snowing. Not sure both of these places can survive the off season up here but we will see.
Anyone ever been to the Chinese Bodyworks spots on US-10 on the way into Ludington? I walked in to say hi (didn't have time or opportunity for more) and a friendly gal walked out of a room saying she was in the middle of a massage and to come back later.

When they first opened Yomi was the only one working and the massages were great with L1 and L2 being offered.
About a month or so ago Yomi left and there has been new girls there. Young and old.
Helen gives a great massage and walks on your back, but that's about it. No touching and told me I could DIY.
Anisa gave ok massage, lots of teasing and ass play before flip. Wanted 60 for L1 on flip. Ok with touching, but only over clothes.
Lucy. Not sure haven't tried yet.
You can text and see whos working and what times are available.
Also sometimes there's only one working so they keep leaving and dealing with walk ins.
I really hope they get Yomi back!
They are open and is an opportunity to get there and keep it open. Went on Sunday morning and seen Domi and she gave and awesome massage and was great with the ending. Better get there before she is gone and so is the place.

We all know it takes time to get a new business into the black. IDK, I guess they might not have enough capital to keep open until business improves.

Just had a opportunity to stop out by this location. I stopped initially and the door was locked with the sign on saying they were open. I sent a texted and got response back within 30 mins and I setup a appointment later in the day. Massage was vary good and will definitely be going back soon. Highly recommend.

Just saw that there is another new AMP in Traverse City. This one is called Q Spa, and is in the plaza located at US-31 and 4 Mile Road. They are advertising on SkiptheGames. Phone number and address can be found there. Also noticed name changes at the other newly opened AMPs. What was the "Asian Massage" on Woodmere Ave. , is now named "Seven Days Spa", and what was "3257 Spa" on S. Airport Road, is now "3257 Korea Spa". Am not sure if the name changes signify ownership changes or what. Just seems strange to be newly opened and having a name change so soon. The AMP in Benzie appears to be unchanged at this time.
Just been there, haven't been there in a month. Seems the service is even better than before! Love the place.
Had another great session over weekend. I was told by current therapist that couple new ladies would be starting there in 1 week.

Lady mid / late 30's (I think) goes by Vicky. Average build Massage was okay. Feel free to PM for details.
Do any of these spas offer anything more than a L1 flip? Or is it all just HJ? Feel free to DM.

A friend just let me know he had a wonderful time at the spa on Woodmere. Then when he got home his wife got a bank text he was charged over 3 bills to his debit card. He said he never pulled he card out when there but they could have done it when he was face down! BBW!

Tall good looking asian woman named Amy. Mid 30's. Asked if I wanted light, medium, or hard. Went for the hour and wasn't shorted on time. 80 dollars. I believe they offer a table shower, although I didn't partake. Left happy. We finally have some good options up north.

But along the lines of Broadway Jay says, go try it out and take enough for more and see what they say. They aren't going to be offended if you just ask at the flip. They are just going to say no if they don't. And hey, maybe you'd find they don't say no, but don't count on that.

Did a walk in drew Amy didn't get the hr she had a apt so got a half hr decent rub decent tug.
It seems there's a few new parlors that have opened up in TC recently. I'll be traveling up there soon and seeking recommendations for the best one. I don't need FS but do love a real massage by an attractive massues with lots of teasing and ideally with a table shower. I welcome all suggestions.
