I came in for an hour and a half massage. What it turned out to be is a sex parlor and when offer was declined, I was asked to leave after 10 minutes.

Hm, let’s see. I’m not sure if this is what is implied when you mention massage in London, but when my friend and I discovered what our experiences would be like, it was pretty shocking. We found this place on Unilocal as it was close to where we were and walked in after having called about half an hour beforehand to make sure they had availability. The place was in a somewhat empty street and had a hair salon in the front. There was no one inside when we got there. A male staff member came out and greeted us, followed by a female employee. We paid £40 each for two hour-long massages. I assumed the woman would do mine and the guy would do my guy friend’s massage, but after we settled in our respective rooms in the back — which had pink walls and dim lighting — the male masseuse walked into my room. I sensed something was off but didn’t want to walk out yet. There was only a small towel to cover my body, and it wasn’t large enough to be tucked under the sheets to completely drape across my body from upper back down. I felt a little uneasy, but still went ahead. The massage turned out to be fine; he didn’t try to do anything inappropriate, and also didn’t say a single word to me during the entire process. It wasn’t until afterward when we got out of the place and I asked my friend how his was did I realize the place was partially operating like a brothel. Apparently my friend didn’t even get a towel, and the masseuse asked him to turn around mid-massage. He declined the offer. I was so shocked(and a bit amused) to hear this, as mine had been relatively normal — the massage itself wasn’t really good, and I was on guard for the first few minutes since I was cautious and couldn’t really relax — but I guess the real deal showed its true colors during the man’s session. I’m not sure if the hair salon in the storefront actually functions, or is merely a façade to hide what goes on in the back. But either way, it was a very weird experience.

Oh my stars. Wow. Simply as good as it gets. A thirty minute back massage for £20…it was unreal as well. The kind of massage that makes you forget all your problems!!! Get down to Greenwich everyone!
