On my upcoming trip to Thailand I intend to enjoy more massages. I have always enjoyed some of the normal oil/cream one's with happy endings available. But in all my 15 years visiting never had standard/foot/head massages. A bit of a crime really as when in Pattaya stay at Mosaik and so pass many massage shops many times every day, and the boys outside are always so welcoming and chatty.
I know there have been many threads about massage shops but just looking for fresh updates regarding the shops around Tuk-Com. I can never remember the names of them all, bar Blue House. On another board/forum which often discusses massage joints (mostly in Bkk) I got some helpful advice on costs etc.. for a start I wasn't aware that a foot massage is expected to last an hour, I expected that to be just for oil massages and foot/head massages to be 30 mins or so.
So in the shops around Tuk-Com is the normal cost around Bt200 for foot/head massage? and 'expected' tip? Bt100, Bt200? My one visit to one of these smaller massage shops for an oil massage was not as enjoyable, as it was the curtain-style with a few beds in the same room, do they also have VIP rooms with shower facilities as Blue House? Do you choose your masseur for foot/head massage or is there a rota list for the boys and you just get allocated someone rather than choose?
Thanks for any updated info.
