External Link/Members OnlyAfter reading about the possibility of some extra treatment at this very respectable looking place in my old stomping ground I thought I'd chance it, worse come to worst they have a steam room and sauna included in the basic hr fee of £40
Called ahead to see if a drop in for massage and steam later after 8pm last evening would be ok, was told that would be fine and 2 ladies were available; Katia and ???
The receptionist was English so comms totally clear when my hearing didn't fail me. She said they were both lovely but the soul of discretion made no mention of any special attentions they might give.
Closer to the venue I rang again to confirm as my journey had taken a while and was told that only Katia was now working late. I asked if both ladies did the same massages or each were specialists (no idea if receptionist was cottoning to my sly remarks), she said both offered the same.
Decided to continue and arrived a little while later. Cute black receptionist but not friendly or flirty enough to make me want to enquire about her availability. 2 white girls sitting nearby, one slimmer and cuter (though neither less than a size 10 and a little sturdy for my taste) who was clearly a friendly London lass (possible sarf) but no winks or smiles so guessed neither was the masseuse I was due to see.
A slim, pretty tanned girl showed me to the massage room, properly kitted out with an industrial strength, bonafide massage table at the centre with just enough walk space around it. Room was tidy but busy with other treatment and decor. Only downside was the tiled floor was a bit damp and I'd walked in with my street shoes (after all the rain) so not the best for a totally clean, barefoot experience a la spa. She politely put a towel down and went to bring me a robe whilst I undressed, no hangers but hooks on back of door and a low stool to drape trousers over.
Wrapped in robe I went for a shower and returned to the room where Katia was waiting, pecking away at a phone.
Now it's at this point my recollection has failed me and I'm now not sure that the girl who showed me to the room was the same lady now stood before me as her hair was loose and a tight curled frizz. She was pretty, similarly tanned, about 5'7", slim size 8, latin looks and dressed like the others in salon type uniform so all above board and unsexy.
She spoke with a Hispanic accent and it turns out she's from Lisbon and the resident physio, hot stone (I'd asked on way in but they weren't available, receptionist didn't even know they offered it!), sport and Thai massage specialist, so my guess is that I got the genuine masseuse as she said the other girl offered Swedish relaxation.
I'd wrapped a towel around my waist and got on the table but when she turned to me she said I was the wrong way round so as I turned to the other end of the table the towel slipped (honest Guv) but she made no fuss about my bare ass now before her.
She knew I wanted a relaxing massage so began at my feet and she had a wonderful, tender but firm touch. Don't mean to sound fluffy but it was that kind that felt sensual rather than perfunctory. For the first 10+ mins she just worked oil into my legs right up to my butt. Not so much cc swipes but just massage sexy where I was just hoping she was going to stray in between.
She had soft warm hands that didn't seem shy to work my butt but I couldn't work up the nerve to ask for extras, I just enjoyed the anticipation. She worked my back, arms and neck again in a sensuous way and didn't shy away when I touched her leg as she came past.
We'd been having a slow, friendly conversation on and off and she finally asked me to turn over. I asked if I should cover with the towel and she said it wasn't a problem. She then said something about enjoying getting to know people whatever their need and at that point I went a bit
thinking "wahey!".
She did a great job of oiling and massaging up the front of my legs and body and I made some lame ass apology if I got hard under her attention but she chuckled and said don't worry. As it turned out the old boy got a bit gun shy and mostly refused to stand to until she was massaging right around my groin and brushing his slumbering head with her hands, at which point the blood rose and she was finally brushing him unashamedly. I touched her hands and she continued, I touched her leg and butt through her clothes and she continued. She asked if I'd like extra and I said "oh yes! do you do body to body?" as I was gagging to get her naked.
This is where it stalled as she said she only did hand relief and I said "Really?" I told her what I really wanted was to go down on her but she smiled and said only hand and I could only touch her hands and legs! I obviously looked crest fallen and she asked if it was ok. I said ok and lay back and tried to enjoy it but as good as her warm, oiled hands felt working around my todger I couldn't get into the swing of it because I really wanted to get her NEKKID! My strokes strayed up her leg and up her body but I couldn't quite reach her boobs and only once managed a fingertip to the front of her trousers. She didn't stop me but she remained distant, those of you with longer arms and hands may get better mileage! (But be respectful)
As things weren't going to come to a boil because of my frustration I finally asked her not to worry and she smiled and joked a little about relaxing when I got home. I told her I was too wound up after her attentions for it to be satisfying which she accepted graciously and we finished chatting pleasantly as I slowly got dressed.
I know I didn't get what I wanted out of her but the lead up was great so for those of you happy with the sensual attentions of a lovely mannered lady who will happily toss you off (£20) then you could do a lot worse than see how Katia floats your boat.
I'm tempted to return to see if she will give in, as she winningly said "see you again" as we parted, but I'm not sure whether I want to go through the frustration again and then head off to a plan B for proper release! (see separate, and much briefer review to follow!)
Sorry for the bleedin essay but this was a pretty unique and unexpected massage experience for me which will no doubt have done nothing for most of you wanting more at the end.
