Just got back from my first AMP visit. Checked out Atsu in Cary since it's very close to my house. No appointment, just walked in. An older, but attractive, asian lady came to the front and greeted me. There was another girl there, but she was busy with another client, didn't even get to see what she looked like, just heard her. Table shower + massage, left happy, will repeat.
At Red Rose Spa have gotten a LOT friendlier lately.

No names will be given and yes I gave a healthy tip. But it was tight and hot and I will do it again.
[QUOTE=RaleighFunGuy;2087770]Looking to break my massage cherry. Was thinking about doing a half hour at Cary ATSU with table shower. Is the half hour worth it? Tip suggestion, senior member here. Feel free to PM me. Just want my first time to go smoothly. Thanks![/QUOTE]It has been my experience that if you do the 1/2 hour you get less of the attention that you are looking for. My working assumption is that if you select the 1/2 hr they think you are cheap and will not tip. I suggest that, for at least the first visit to a spa, you take the full hour. If you tip you will be remembered and future visits can be shorter.
Heard that CiCi was back so I had to give it another try. I always liked this place even though it was pretty much legit. Still clean and friendly. Still good service. I got the table shower and guess what? CiCi was back. Also saw another girl I had not seen before. Was told that several girls had just left recently (I think she said in the past 2 weeks) and new girls where here now. DIY was still standard but for what it is its as good as any place I've tried. I'll go back for the massage and the atmosphere.
So, I have hit this place a few times. I usually get 1/2 hour and I tip well. This time, I drew a young gal. Pretty cute, no idea the name. So she gives me about 10 min massage on the back, asks me to flip. Didn't ask, went right to it... Put my hand on her ass and began HE. I popped pretty quick due to the mood I was in and the day I had. She went out and got towel, wipe wipe. And she said "you like? All done" I looked at the clock, just about at 15 min. I said, all done? She said ya, all done. I get you water.
I was pretty pissed off. She new I looked at the clock. She new I got a 10 min massage. I guess she is in the HE business not massage business.

I was in Raleigh last week for business and read some good reviews about ATSU Cary. Stopped in Friday early afternoon before heading home. Drew Lucy. Opted for the table shower and hour massage. Great table shower. She made sure everything was clean. Asked how I like to be massaged. Told her some trouble areas for a great legit massage. Once she took care of the kinks, she got to work on the HE. After, had about 10 minutes left in my hour and she asked where to massage to finish out my time. Cute girl, very friendly no tip talk. Was very pleased and will be back next time I am in the area.
AMP Tip: when paying for your massage (always before the massage) make sure the girl taking your money sees that you have more money in your pocket. This lets them know a tip is possible. I have only struck out at one AMP with this approach. Be very friendly. I always hug the masseuse before as I am walking to the room or when I meet her. You can get a good idea as to what will or will not happen by their reaction. Do not be afraid to walk...

If a place does provide FS, like RR or VIP, you will easily pay $$ or more for it, so unless you really want a good massage, BP would be the better choice. The whole point of going to an AMP is to get a REAL massage, and then getting some extras. The crap that girl at Eden is not the norm. Any time I have ever gone to an AMP, you get the full amount of time, whether it be in the form of a massage or extras. In RaleighConnect's case, the masseuse should have continued with some more massage after the HE. That is total BS.
So I've found that as so many people have said before, you have to build up a rapport with the provider. Once you have a good rapport, FS, BJ, BBJCIM all of that can become available without the extra price. The real question is what are you after? Do you want to know you can get a HJ at the worst and a good massage, maybe make a play for FS? Or do you want guaranteed FS and no massage.

[QUOTE=EdGein;2089057]At Red Rose Spa have gotten a LOT friendlier lately.[/QUOTE]Had a great time at Rose with a young girl on Sunday. Good massage and when she put on the latex glove I was pleasantly surprised and it was a real treat.
Went to Holiday today. The girls are still nice, but their popularity has ruined that place. During my hour massage, they had no less than five guys come in and someone - of course they were all busy - had to go meet each one. Hell, I heard them store one guy in the table shower room to wait because all of the massage rooms were full. And my masseuse left DURING THE ENDING to greet a guy at the front door (and I had to listen while he spent 10 minutes trying to explain to her what "hour and a half" meant). It was one of the most stressed atmospheres I've ever been in, in any context, and not at all relaxing.
Still, I did get the full hour, even if it was a white knuckle hour. I recommend the place if you catch them on an off hour, but not after 5 pm: go before noon on a weekday or nothing.
"Nobody goes there anymore, It's too crowded " ...ROFLMAO.

You guys jumped on that, and missed that I accidentally called a tense situation in a 'parlor as "white knuckle.".

Looks like they have closed. If you had never went you missed a great place.
[QUOTE=Jimjim77;2092664]Looks like they have closed. If you had never went you missed a great place.[/QUOTE]Considering they had just put up a new lit sign on their facade about four weeks ago, I have to think their closure is related to the news item a couple fridays ago.

You never know what a place is going to be called or who will be working there from day to day or week to week.
Hey wait a minute, hell us American companies aren't that much different. Oh we'll, bring on the next one with some fresh girls.

Newbie here, was wondering about the emily's massage on capital blvd, in general about their age, and looks. I was only able to find only one review after looking through 30 pages.

I got the older one, which was fine by me, attractive for her age imo. Got a table shower and hour massage for $90. The massage was ok, nothing spectacular, but she was fun for sure, allowed a little roaming, and I left with a smile on my face. Gave her a good tip and would see her again for sure.
Can someone PM me where Tina from Joy Spa went to? Thanks.
So I have several questions my little friend wants answers to, some have been asked before.
1. Durham Ling has ads, seems legit. I would like to know more, please consider doing so in private message. I posted in Durham section but no traction.
2. Back walking. I only know of one place on capital that does this. Does anyone else know where they do this?
3. Happy beginnings? Please PM also if you care to share.
4. My little friend has been surprised with staff turnover / location change. Do any of the ladies provide direct updates to customers that want to follow them?
5. Thai massage seems to be about a lot of stretching (hence the Ling interest). Any tips on providers or locations that do similar work?
6. Again, perhaps best to reply via PM: It seems that other than one or two or three locations that the service levels in this area of NC are limited. Other than the openly talked about, do regulars ever get more? My little friend says he never asks / begs / offers but would love to stumble upon such things. Not interested in names or really even locations, just stories of hope and inspiration.
Providers: Keep up the lovely work!
I thank you for your assistance.
Saw an ad a while back for a new AMP in Wake Forest, said call first. I called asked was anyone available now she told me if I come now. So headed up there, was met by a very attractive 30 ish woman at the door, she asked had I called I told her yes she let me in. Led me to room paid the 60 up front for the massage, table shower according to ad was free, sheled me to the shower and was an amazing shower, she made sure every inch of me was clean. She toweled me off and led me back to room. Massage started and was amazing, decided to try my luck while she was standing up by head and let my hands start to wander on her thighs, no resistance and she moved in closer. Massage was so relaxing I fell asleep and went right into my dreaming. She had me flip covered and started the chest and arms, when done she started rubbing a little below the waist and then asked did I want her to touch, of course I told her yes, at end gave a .4 tip and out awoke, got dressed and left.
Went for a second visit, same lady at door, same with shower and massage, exception was this time we were both more comfy with situation and my hands wandered during entire massage, same ending as before. When I left there was a very hot looking 20 something chick there, almost wish I would have shown up 30 min later to try her out. Will be going back, way better experience there than any of the 3 trips to the one in Youngsville.
Tried to hook up with one of my regular girls this weekend but she wasn't having it. Broke out the credit card, went to ATSU Cary, got some new younger gal, did not catch her name. Very, VERY friendly, pretty much open to anything, and the massage was quite good. Going to call back this week and find out her name to see again, will post here when I get the info. Always reliable over there, recommend highly.

Do not expect to leave happy if he is there. The girls seem to be nervous, on edge, when he is around.
