What a weird and slightly creepy experience. I wanted a basic spa massage and when I saw this as a Groupon I snapped it up. It was described as an hour long deep tissue massage. The location is on the bottom level, back side of an office building. It is crowded and full of what appears to be hand me down furniture. When I arrived I was asked for my groupon and ushered into a massage room which was very dimly lit with red bulbs. A young woman led me in. Naively I assumed she would be doing the massage. I was shocked when a gentleman arrived without introducing himself and began working on me rather unceremoniously. I wasn't given a chance to ask for a female masseuse nor was I asked about any health conditions. This is not a massage where you are draped continuously; my buttocks were pummeled and my legs massaged their full length to the point of awkwardness in terms of proximity to intimate areas. I was unable to relax as I was so uncomfortable and creeped out and was not able to interrupt the massage without feeling as though I was putting myself in some kind of risk. I realize that sounds over dramatic but I can't overemphasize how weird this experience was, and I have had massages all over the world.
The masseuse finished, announced "you're done" and told me to dress. I couldn't get out of there fast enough but wasn't able to escape before the masseuse asked for a tip.
This is clearly a family business and I would normally try to be very supportive. Perhaps this was an issue of incorrect expectations but no one should go for a massage there who has issues with opposite sex masseuses or a massage which pushes the boundaries of physical contact typical in most spa massages.
