New to the area and I booked an appointment online hoping to find some relaxation and pain relief in my lower back. I Arrived at an easy to find location, and was asked to pay and tip before service was given; that was my first flag to leave but I held hope for a pleasant experience. The masseuse Nancy told me what to tip, I've never had anyone ANYWHERE do this before, especially before even receiving service. She showed me into a bare and old room, that was hot stuffy and smelled like must. No direction, just a very small sheet and a massage table. I got undressed to my comfort, and waited. There was no music playing in the room, only in the hall so you can hear every noise from the road and others talking, and no air circulating. She came back in and immediately started the "massage" rubbing me through the sheet for over 8 min. She exploded half my buttock without asking and it was the most awkward and uncomfortable massage and experience I've ever had. When I asked if the sheet stayed on the whole time she said" just relax for 10 min then I do the oil". The massage was interrupted three times by her walking out of the room unannounced and leaving the door open (twice to speak to people in the hall and once to get hot stones), with my naked body exposed. The oil used smelled terrible, the sheets were stiff. The entire massage was definitely not worth the $103.00 I spent, I left more sore and frustrated than when I arrived. If there was ever any real training given to her she didn't apply it, but you could tell she was trying. She was nice and polite just clueless.
It felt like a massage given by a 16 year old boy for the first time, rubbing the same spot over and over and no real knowledge of what to do to get kinks and knots out while focusing more on rubbing my butt then anywhere else. The massage abruptly ended by her slapping my feet and legs and said "ok I'm done". I have never wanted to leave a place and shower so fast.
I get massages quite often, I've never felt so annoyed at myself for not leaving as soon as I walked in and saw the place. I was really hoping for a better use of my time and money and unfortunately it did not happen. read more
