Lili Bodywork

They were able to take me and a friend with only a few minutes notice:
Me: Are you available for two people?
Them: Sure! What time?
Me: …now?
Cue ringing of door bell!
Kind of sketchy (who am I kidding — SUPER sketchy) entry — you ring the bell, they buzz you up, and you head up a flight of stairs into a room. They have two beds available, and only those two beds (from what I could see), so when you go in with a friend, it’s like you’re doing a couples massage. Ambiance is what is too be expected from an affordable Asian massage place.
Kenny G music, only a curtain separating you from the naked person on the other bed, and a giant sign that says, «KEEP UNDERWEAR ON» by the hooks where you hang up your discarded clothing.
So it’s kind of funny they made us keep our underwear on, since within a few minutes my underoos were firmly yanked down for my gluteus maximus to get kneaded.
Asian women are freakishly strong. They worked out every kink in my body. Sometimes super painfully. My shoulders were sore for days afterwards!
A point of contention: I’ve gone to numerous cost effective Asian massage places throughout the country. This is the only place where they don’t wipe you down with a super hot towel afterwards (which is like, THE BEST PART). Instead, they wipe you down with paper towels. SO not the same. GET SOME HOT TOWELS! And they do a face massage with… PURELL. They literally squirted hand sanitizer onto their hands, then massaged it INTO MY FACE. Wish I could have said «NO THANK YOU» to the face massage. They kept jabbing fingers into the corners of my eyes. So not pleasant. Not pleasant at all.
$ 50 for an hour. CASH ONLY.
So will I go back? Maaaaaaybe… if my usual place is too booked and I’ve got a back that’s killing me. But I’d definitely opt out of the face massage. The ladies were super duper nice though, and so eager! I appreciate eagerness! Just no fingers jabbing into my eyes please.
