*Part 2 Of 2*
9/22/23…read moreTHE MASSAGE:
Since massage is best when nude, this is exactly what I did. I lay on top of the new sheeting, because was suspicious about the sheeting underneath the new sheet laid out. It might have been clean, but I didn't take that chance. I also do not stick my face in the massge holes. This is a very good way to get sick. I think so anyways.
Kathryn waited about 4 minutes before knocking on the door before entering.  I wasn't concerned about draping and apparently neither wasÂ
Kathryn. Â
Kathryn started on my neck with a great amount of pressure. She continued this by working on my arms, hands and back. What really impressed me was the Thai Stretching Kathryn incorporated into my massage. Â
Kathryn continued with the preliminary massage by stretching the glutes maximus, legs and feet. When I say stretching, I mean stretching.  It is not for the weak of heart.Â
When Kathryn was done with the preliminaries, she started back at my neck and shoulders, but with massage oil. The Massage oil is unscented so have no fear ladies and gentleman.Â
The massage pressure Kathryn applied to my skin was steady and consistent.  Kathryn continued massaging my arms, neck, back, glutes maximus, legs and feet. Â
Ordinarily I prefer to have me feet massaged last, but I didn't let Kathryn know this at the time. I will do so the next time I am here with whoever the staff member...no,...massage therapist.Â
 Â
Massaging feet is not always done at massage palors. Same can be said for face and head massage. This doesn't seem the case for Massage Joy:)
The feet, legs and glutes maximus massage were the best part of the massage for me. Whether on my stomach or back, Kathryn spend more time on those areas because I asked her too.  If there was any tension in the gluteus maximus, legs or feet, Kathryn eliminated this problem.
Kathryn finished how she started the massage. Kathryn did the Thai Stretching again and finished with the massage slaps I have experienced at so many other massage palors. If there is a more professional name for these massage slaps, I can think of it right now. I don't feel like looking it up right now either.
AFTER THE MASSAGE:
Kathryn used a hot towel to remove some of..., no,...a lot of the oil that was applied to my body. I like to keep some oil on my body, but this time a little to much oil was used.
Nevertheless, I think Kathryn (who might be the manager/owner of this establishment) did a fantastic job.
 I do feel cleaning the oil off the walls might...will help improve the look of the business.  This is just one room I saw, but it left an impression on me.
The bathroom looked neat and orderly; as well, as smelling "so fresh and clean, clean."
From what I saw of the layout of the business, the employee hang out spot is straight down the hall from the front desk. There are 4 massage rooms and the bathroom is on the left hand side past the first massage room on the right.
In case I didn't say it, Massage Joy is located on the second floor in building 241. Very close to Sugar Spa. A two minute walk away...if that long.
I know I will try this place out at least two more times. I love Thai Massage incorporated with the Swedish/Deep Tissue Massage. Especially without the loose clothing at is normally associated with it. I give this place a 4 star review. It would have been 5 stars, but the was an eyesore.
