The
body never lies.

Someone
asked me in Second Life (SL) the other day where they could get a massage inworld. I actually had some recommendations! I guess all my time spent wandering around on
the Grid is beginning to pay off.
(Significant Other says something sounding like “Finally!)
During my
travels, I’ve come across two small, decent massage facilities. (I’m trying to
avoid calling them massage
parlors with their negative American connotations. Significant Other’s eyes roll.)
Naked
Bondage, part of the Naked
franchise inworld, has a massage facility located in an ancient Roman bath. Entering the building, a large bathing pool
dominates the center. At one end are lounge
chairs and at the other is the massage area.
There is one
table suitable for use by couples. Besides basic massage, erotic massage is
available as well.
The facility
is small but conducive to an intimate session for a couple. There are no masseurs/masseuses available so
bringing a partner is recommended. During
my visits, there have never been other visitors and so is very quiet. The massage area can be located here.
Another
massage facility is located at Madame
Jenny’s Tea and Shibari House. I recently blogged about this facility in my
introduction to shibari or Japanese bondage. Located on the third floor of this building
is a small area for massage with a traditional,
Japanese hot tub (with shibari
capabilities) for guests use. Standing
nearby is massage table with rubbing oils on a separate stand. The room looks like it came from a Japanese onsen. In addition to basic and erotic massages,
Thai massage can also take place here.
As with the
last site, no assistance is available and a partner is recommended. The site is evocative of the Far East and
offers a private setting for a couple. The
site can be found here.
For my final
recommendation, I went looking for a massage facility that actually has
masseurs/masseuses on site for clients.
I found one called Happy Hands
Massage Parlor. (Significant Other
snickers.) As its name implies, Happy
Hands is dedicated to providing massage services to its guests.
The parlor
is a low, single story building with facilities on the roof. Entering the main doorway, a visitor is in a
lobby with the profile pictures of available staff. Except that the two times I visited for this
story, no one was online.
Off the
corridor leading away from the lobby is a large party room and four smaller
rooms used for private massage centers. The
massage tables contained therein offer basic
and erotic massages. Free towels are available. On the roof, accessible by an outside
staircase, is large sauna, a very big marble hot tub, and a fire pit.
There is a
fee for using the facility and payments to the staff are negotiated
separately. Of the three sites, I
visited for this story, Happy Hands offers the most services and has
staff. I do recommend checking to see
when they’re available. And, as I said
previously, there is a charge payable in Lindens. Happy Hands Massage Parlor is located here.
These three
sites offer the basics for massage services inworld. As in Real Life (RL), these are what people
make of them. With a partner, they can
be fun and enjoyable plus with whatever other services may be offered like
bathing pools or shibari!
Give it a
try, you just might like it!
As always, I’m grateful to all
inworld for their kindness and time in stopping to talk with a stranger who was
passing through their lives!
