After doing the massage scene for many years I can truly tell you that all of these other EMAIL postings on acupressure places is like reporting on the good restaurants of a city by pointing out the FAST FOOD places. Sure they are easy to find, but they barely scratch the surface on the pleasures that really await for you in the massage gourmet places. Introduce yourself to the wonderful world of home massages. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND that you look into the LA Weekly, OC Weekly or in the San Francisco area in the classified of the Marin Independent Journal. You will find hundreds of ads, with unbelievably good looking girls, starting at 20 years old, that are making money on the side, many times right out of their home. I wish I can post the names/phones of the better ones, but unfortunately the cops are eager to track them down and arrest them. You will find them on these papers and if you read on I will give you some tips to increase your chances of success. The WEB is also the perfect place to see ads with pictures: check out www.thatmall.com, www.californiaangels.com, and YAHOO under SENSUAL MASSAGE. See the pictures and you'll get an idea of where I'm coming from. The main disadvantage of using newspapers is that you need to call and its complications: they usually want you to call again from a phone booth a few blocks away from the final destination.. The other problem is that 50% of the time you get an answering machine (to be avoided) since many times there is not a call back. Usually I keep calling other numbers until I get a live answer. This way you will have a good chance of getting an appointment and being there fast. Before you call, use the phone book to check on the phone prefix to ensure that it is close to where you are. On the whole it is best to call places where there will be a live answer, usually if you call in the late morning or in places where there are at least two girls working. Some answering machine girls want to call you back to test if you are serious. If you are focused on a special ad that has an answering machine, you can leave a message(use a fake first name) but if in an hour they do not return the call, move on to the next one. Personally I only do that as a last resort or if I am willing to wait and retry with others in a 2-3 hour period. In the end I usually end up calling a number that has a direct answer. You will be most pleasantly surprised in the quality of the girls that work out of the home. Many give an excellent massage, usually nude, and you can massage them as well. I have spent many a nights fantasizing on massages that I have gotten from 18 year old blondes with baby hairs in the pubic area that truly enjoyed getting fingered until they climaxed. The adventure of getting there is also exciting, walking up to their apartment door to be greeted by a smiling thong bikini California babe with (usually) a good attitude. I have been received by oiled up Brazilian chicks with the most incredible asses, swedish girls that get so horny that they want to fuck you in the end for no extra money. The tall blond that appeared in the Playboy Channel that lip locked to my instrument with true delight along with that perfectly cropped bush in my face. And that incredible redhead in Santa Monica who licked me all over and let m e fuck her twice in a three hour experience that involved the shower, sink, over the end of the sofa, the floor-bed-back-to-the-floor when the massage was scheduled only for an hour. They particularly like when you and her get on your knees facing each other while you finger them and they stroke you. Many of my friends have followed up on some of these places. The funniest story is when I took 2 friends to this place. They liked it so much they returned 3 hours later again. They are into the Martial Arts and they proceeded to take over the last year over 20 students and the instructors as well! The newspaper massage scene is clearly the way to go, no more of the acupressure places where the format is very repetitive. I've had many adventures this way, always trying new things: nipple-to-nipple 69's, tongue baths, three girls, prostate massages, pussy muscle control that squeezes around my wiener in all sorts of interesting ways, one girl blowing me, the other licking my ass , my toes have been licked, how about massages in hot tubs, outdoor tables in the sun. Try Tantric massages: it is the exotic hindu art of regenerating energy from the genitals and circulating upwards to the brain. Tantric massages start with eye gazing and synchronized breathing, moving on the front to front seated positions and at least an hour of getting Mr. Happy hard while she circulates the energy with her other hand and breath all over your body. Good times indeed, my friend. There is a fine art to reading these ads, by carefully following these rules you will substantially increase your chances of a very pleasurable experience. Let's discuss what to avoid first. Watch out for these keywords in the ads: mature masseuse or great gal (old), candlelight and warm table (the surroundings are great but she is ugly), discounts offered(again, a cheap massage is offered because the girl does not have that much to offer), full figure (a porker), voluptous(bordering on full figure, usually huge tits), morning or senior discounts (because she is a senior herself), ebony or chocolate (brown sugar), two girls for one (two ugly girls do not equal one pretty one), massage with a striptease show (a self service scheme that leaves you working out your own "problem"), "talk to me live, entertainer"(more hustlers) and $40-60 massages (stay away from cheap massages, there is a good reason why they are cheap) and for therapeutic massages: insurance accepted, acupuncture offered (Oh no), no mention of the word SENSUAL. Avoid the Orange County Register and the sex newspapers which are heavily infiltrated with strippers with burly drivers, in fact avoid all outcall services. They will charge beginning at $150 and to really make their money with tips of $50-200 more. These women are hard core hustlers. A silly business is LINGEREE MODELING. They cater to one time customers, usually out of towners since they do not offer the service you think you are going to get. After being greeted by a foxy looking girls in tiny panties and see through bras, you are led to a room with a chair and coffee table with a box of tissues. You can guess what's next: she dances for you, ever asking for more money to take off clothing, while you self-service. Might as well stay home, rent a video, at least you can rewind it to the better scenes again. . . Now for the good keywords: the words SENSUAL or EROTIC, 18-22 years old , measurements included (36-24-38), body to body, greek(interfacing with the third input), french(playing the skin flute and swallow the melody), voice sounds young (usually they are). Expect to pay $120-150 for a nude body to body and $160-200 for full service. Again, anything under $100 is usually an older gal, some of them are nice but it leaves you wanting for more. It is up to you and your budget. Sure, paying $200 is expensive, however it leaves with an excellent set of memories for your lonelier times. Simply cool your next massage expenditures for a while to catch up with your budget. Believe me: a 10 woman is equal to 3 normal ones in terms of the pleasure and fantasies that you will have. Since the business is perfect for young women and clients, everybody wins. The precision and control that those little hands can exert on your "Wet Willie" is amazing, it can extract all of your backed up plumbing in a most effective way. Hope this helps, GOOD LUCK. . . A final point: once their rates are mentioned, say $120, ask if that is the final price since you want to know how much money to bring. If they start to mention that they may be extras, starting at $50, you will be faced with spending a lot more than you thought. If you don't think is worth it, it is best to decline from going. Otherwise you will be negotiating in your weakest moment: with a throbbing hard dick that has drained all the common sense out of your brain. . . =========================================================================== Most girls won't discuss sex over the phone. If they offer a nude massage and will let you massage them, you should go for it. Most of the time they will offer more for a tip later; I usually bring up sex when they have massaged me for a while and I have a hard-on; it is then fairly clear that neither I nor she are cops. Sometimes they want to wait with sex till the second visit which is also ok with me. In any event, you will always get at least a hand job at the end, unless you run into a complete rip-off. First choice are always referrals from friends, of course.
