Massage Parlor Reports

[HowardSprague]

See nothing in the law that would exclude opening up as a Reflexology business.

If you look at Section 14 (e) it refers to Rhode Island General Law Chapter 23-20.8 which governs massage therapists. Chapter 23-20.8-1 (2) defines "practice of massage. " This could easily be argued to cover reflexology. As this is a new law, its application has yet to be determined by the courts.

In the end, with no requirements for training, this is really just a measure to "ensure" the bodyworkers aren't illegals or being trafficked. On its face its not that demanding or oppressive an ordinance.

Here's the rub: (1) There's no mention of what the application process will be. There are towns in MA which require bodywork licenses, but there is no such license available from the DPL, which has exclusive jurisdiction over massage / bodywork licensing. Sneaky way of keeping the businesses out of town. Given the licenses will be available, (2) convincing these Chinese girls to sign anything like this. Chinese nationals are very skittish and distrustful of any type of government intervention or monitoring. Can't blame them. Maybe they'll get desperate enough to give up personal information, but I'd hate to be the one trying to convince them to do so.

This only applies to the City of Providence, not all of RI. They will probably move outside of the city, or maybe to Mass.

For now it does, but it wouldn't surprise me to see neighboring towns follow suit. We can only hope not.

The is the new ordinance. It does not look good.

I realize that closures suck for all parties involved, but. Seriously? This is the actual ordinance? $60 license, no visible training requirements, dress code, and max fine $100/$200? Meanwhile in NYC it can be a felony to provide unlicensed massage. I predict that once the dust settles Providence will be business as usual by spring time (if it ever arrives).

I know this belongs in the Road island section.

Due to New LEO Ordinances, In Providence, Many of the AMPs are closed.

So call ahead or seek other options, before make the drive south.

Made the journey yesterday no dice!

Be safe.

Went to Unique in Wey tonight and left extremely unhappy. This place used to be a decent go to for a quick, cheap rub & tug. I have been there a half dozen times with no bad experience although some were better than others. Tonight I go in and pay for an hour (Spring Special, LOL). I get an older lady but at least she's pleasant. Name is Jane, she says. After awhile with my text notification going off, she says she'd rather do a 1/2 hr. & I agree. Anyway totally lackluster "bodywork" but I'm there for the ending anyway so what the heck. So the next thing I know I'm getting the "ok, I'm finished" I said, no you're not what about the front. She says no front, all done. I said that I'd been there before and. She says "lots of people been here before". I was pissed. I dressed and left, no tip.

This place is not the Unique you know. Avoid!

80.

Glad to respond to this post, but kinda do not like to respond with the simple two characters "80", because the haters on the board will continue to hate and go off on a missive about just trying to rack up posts. I could not care less about your self-centered post counts or member status like "some" on the board do. I just care to share info.

I know exactly where he's talking about as I know the area well. What I don't know is what the F he's talking about. Blumpkin? Ya, I can guesstimate. I think her name is coco if I understood correctly?

But most important. What was the friggin tip?

New place I stopped into near Whole Foods on Main St in Weymouth. It is on the main rd and the only way in that is shoveled is in full view of the thousands of cars driving by. I had called and they told me $50 on the phone for a massage. I got there and an older asian woman asked for $60 instead. After 10 minutes of arguing, she finally agreed to the $50 but said that was for Swedish massage not the deep tissue. She was wearing jeans and a polo, maybe a 4 in looks. Draping throughout and no sign of any extras, she wasn't shy about where she massaged and it was actually a really good massage for Asian MP standards. She never asked me to flip and gave me a pat on the ass and said all done. I found the website after and it looks like a legit place. On the way out a much younger and very good looking girl was at the front desk. I got the impression that she was the owner / manager and not a therapist but who knows. Pretty sure the place is legit.

Well it was a bit of work but also fun to figure out. As for blumpkin and snowballing Google offers help, but I confess both are way beyond my interests or taste.

Look, I agree that a few more bread crumbs could've been left for the masses to figure it out but if you live in the MetroWest area you probably could decipher where he was talking about pretty easily. I knew what place he was talking about almost immediately. What I am saying is that I don't think his review should be lumped in with the completely worthless ones we get here sometimes as it was a good review, about a real place, that just left a little bit out.

I get it, the newbie (2 reviews or 2 postings really) wants to speak his own language and write about a great place but really give no location or help to anyone. Wow I am sitting here wanting to go to that place so much. Please tell me where it is. Kiss my ass you fking loser, no one cares and if they do they have issues. Plenty of great places to go to. Never bother me with pm's be / see you ain't getting any real info. Sick of these guys who think they are all that.
