Happily Ever After: The Best Handjobs in New York City


Thursday, February 22, 2007

handjobs.jpgThe city is filled with spas, salons, and massage parlors, but it isn't always easy to tell which are legitimate businesses and which are mainly in business for hand jobs and tit fucking breast sex. Most massage parlors in the dirty sense stay in business through word of mouth, though a tip off is if a place advertises table showers, hot oil body work, sensual massage, or the big giveaway-- hand release. Another good sign is if the massage parlor is open later than reasonable. Who really gets shiatsu at 2 in the morning in midtown?

After the jump, Gskip's handy guide for some heavy-handed hand work in dirty old Gotham.

West Garden Spa: WSG is one of the most famous happy ending massage parlors in the city, and you will quickly notice that the clients here are all male. The masseuses are all professionally trained and you can expect them to finish the massage with a HJ without even asking.

Joy Spa: One of our correspondents swears by this place and it's less busy than the more well known massage parlors like West Garden Spa. The masseurs are all Asian, on the younger side, and have seven private rooms. Their location is in Chelsea, and they are open until midnight in case you need a late night massage.

Body & Spirit: With two locations in Midtown and one in the financial district, Body & Spirit offers both regular massages and more erotic ones. Since the chain is so large, inquiries have to be more subtle here. If you call their number, they will have you pick a girl from their website and they will set you up with a private appointment.

Sunflower Salon Inc.: Sunflower is another well known massage parlor like WGS. They even employ some of the same women. Their masseuses are highly trained and expect exceptional tips.

Le Massage Boutique: Le Massage Boutique is one of the more overt parlors in the city. Their official website has no location, only pictures of naked and semi-nude girls. Here's their ad on eros.com: "Let our beautiful masseuse trace the contours of your body with a provocative touch that relaxes and pampers you." Phone (212) 385-9904

Spellbound Massage: Another overt erotic massage parlor, Spellbound also doesn't offer up their location. You have to submit a survey before getting a massage from one of the girls, but they will definitely be more "professional" than girls at the regular spas. The rooms are plush and grand, creating a old time Parisian boudoir feel.

Madison Club: The Madison is a gentlemen's club in Midtown with massage rooms, steam rooms, and lounges with leather couches and cocktails. It costs about $130 just to get in, but after that the hot oil massages with a "hand release" run about $50 to $70. It's a private club, so once you get in, try to get a membership card.

Exceptional Relaxation: This one isn't as well known as some of the others and is pretty small. The massage parlor is located in a basement apartment in the West Village and only has a few girls working it. They can be either conservative or erotic depending on the girl and the day, but there will always be some sort of hand release involved at the end of the massage. They also screen their customers before making an appointment.

137 East 47th Street: We couldn't get a website for this one, but we have on good authority that it exists. On 137 E 47th Street above a Subway restaurant on the second floor there is a palm reader that is actually a front for an erotic massage parlor. We have one report of someone getting kicked out for walking in and asking for some "hands-on service", but every other review has been positive.

Njoy Spa: Another Asian midtown massage parlor, the Njoy Spa is open until 3am and will do house calls if you need some "bodywork" done in the privacy of your own home.
