Massage Parlour: Chen Health & Beauty Massage
External Link/Members Only External Link/Members Only (google maps)
Google maps image is pretty accurate. Most shops around this are shut/not operating, plus the area/nearby pubs were almost empty at around 9pm on a weekday, so didn't feel like there were many eyes. It is located right at a junction however, and there was some traffic but nothing off-putting
Logistics: Read a neutral review on this place from a couple of years ago - wasn't really planning on going here as I was trying to see which parlours/masseuses were well established through reviews on this forum - but last night just happened to walk past it and so thought why not. Just walked in and asked for a 30 min massage. There was a receptionist and a second woman sitting at the desk - both 30s-40s - Chinese looking women. One more plump than the other. The receptionist (plump one) looked cuter but I got the older looking woman instead (didn't really ask/get the choice). Paid £30 for a 30 minute Swedish massage - they were very happy to be paid in cash.
SP: A petite 5"4ish - mature Chinese brunette - called herself Amy. Quite timid and quiet, mild-mannered lady. Nothing much to say about the body as it was just HR but wasn't much that was persuading me to pay to see more. Didn't say anything at all during the massage - just got right to it
The Massage Room: Paid for the massage at the reception desk and I was led to a tiny room in the corner of the parlour. The lights in the corridor were flickering - really did feel like it was out of some hostel horror film. If it wasn't a massage parlour and an independent location, I might have been slightly concerned. The room itself was tiny and dingy - a bed in the middle covered with sheets that almost took up the entire length, and a tiny sink to the right. Also a sign saying "sexual offers will not be accepted at these premises" - which is fine cause I was expecting she would be the one making the offer anyway. All-in-all not good, slightly dingy vibe, but does the job at the end of the day. There was some nice ambient music the entire time which helped a bit. At one point during the massage I could hear other people in the massage parlour who had just entered and were talking with the receptionist, which threw me off slightly.
The Massage: Was led to the room and then left alone while I got ready. Took off my clothes and lied down - no towels provided and nothing to cover - so good first sign. She came in after a minute or so and immediately started and focused on the back and butt with decent amount of oil. It wasn't a strong/heavy massage, but wasn't a light touch either. I could feel some tension being released, and she was quite decent in her strokes and pressure. It took about a couple minutes before she started 'credit card swiping' which was quite sensually done. Also a good sign that a punt was on (another good sign being the shady room itself). She focused mainly on the back and butt for most of the massage - which lasted about 10 minutes or so and included alot of CC swiping - before she asked me if I'd like a happy ending.
Overall the massage itself was fairly nice, but I was quite disappointed that she didn't continue while I was faced up as I was looking forward to that. Also not sure usually how much of the 'massage duration' you pay for is actually meant to be the massage as this was my first - but thought I could have done with a little more.
The Punt: Asked her how much for HR and she said £20 - which seemed value for money really. No points to Amy though because she didn't offer any other services, and started mumbling some numbers when I asked about others services (B2B, touching her). So a) didn't really hear her or understand her enough to know how much she was asking for and b) didn't really want much more from her really as I was happy paying £50 overall for a HR at that point.
Turned around and she got right to it - applied oil to the area and started stroking. I knew I had about 15-20 mins left or so so I was trying to last as long as I could. She stroked it for a good 10 minutes, and I got her to stroke me in different positions, lying face up, kneeling on the bed, from behind. Overall it was nice, and she started to fondle my balls, tickle my ass more as time went on and she was seeing no success (even twisted my nipple for a brief second at one point). Finished as I was kneeling on the bed itself and came over the sheets on the bed itself. Not amazing- nothing to write home about (not that I'd write home about my punts) but also not bad either. Job got done in the end. She gave me sheets to clean myself down, and then I used the tiny sink to clean up as well. Literally would have been no place for a shower in that room. She was in the room with me cleaning up as I got changed and then headed out
On the way out they gave me a sweet from a Celebrations box which was nice - got myself a Milky Way.
Conclusion: Positives:Value for money
CC swiping during massage - was very often and quite sensual
The HR itself - can't complain.
Negatives:Timid/Shy SP
Massage Room/Parlour Ambience
Massage duration and only being done one way
Basic and straightforward rub & tug for the most part - nothing special really that makes you want to go back
I was debating between positive and neutral - but will go with Neutral. On the one hand I think the massage + HR for £50 for 30 mins was value for money and I didn't have a bad experience in any way, but I don't think I'd actively recommend this parlour because of the rooms/ambience and the SP not being too confident in the job. I think if you're looking for a quick rub & tug and come across this place, by all means go in - I'd recommend it. But if you're planning ahead, I think that there must be nicer/better parlours at this price point, that will probably result in a happier ending. But again, don't know this for sure (yet).
