    I've had Dan twice. Although I like his looks, I'm not a fan of his "techniques" either. Both times he seemed to be standoffish with a bit of an attitude and was just not into it, unlike most of the others that work there.

    It does seem to be quiet on this front, haha. I’m planning a massage next week. Maybe I’ll ask about 4 hand…

    Thank you sir ❤️ 
    And to clarify:  the one on 28th. Street has nothing to do with us 😵‍💫😵‍💫
    I don’t know anyone of their spa. 
    we are planning third location. But it won’t come this soon.  We want to build a place that each room has individual shower    Will update new here. 
    thank you everyone ❤️

    Fifth Avenue Men’s Spa is strictly therapeutic only massage. The images of shirtless therapists on their FB page are a bit misleading. They are also very expensive. 
    To each their own, but for far less money one can get either a therapeutic massage or more sensual massage at numerous places throughout Manhattan.

    The female run massage places seem to have the best. I've not gotten the same from a male except once in Atlanta. In the DC area, a table shower is this long massage table that is in a shower setting. You lay on it naked and someone literally bathes you. It's a wonderful feeling. Unfortunately the "showers" I've had at male spas in NYC tend to be a little splashing of water, no bathing. The problem with going to the female places is.. well. they're female.....

    Since it was early in the day and I was in the Union Square area with my neck and shoulders bothering me, I decided to try East Men for the first time. It seemed that Matthew, the manager, was the only one present.  I asked for and hour massage, which he agreed to.
    Although the facility was like others have previously described, (thin walls where you can hear everything going on both inside, outside, above, and next door) there weren't too many sounds that took away from the overall experience. Plus, they had music playing which masked the sounds to an extent. The first massage room, near the reception desk,  was narrow with a sliding door and became fairly dark when the door was closed.
    Matthew gave me good massage combining therapeutic and very sensual elements. We went the full hour (55 minutes of massage with 5 minutes to clean up). He didn't rush at all and although we didn't talk to each other too much, he did check in to see how it felt.
    What impressed me most was that he also did  a combination of aromatherapy with  acupressure techniques on my sinuses, head and neck which felt amazing. (He asked before doing it and I forgot what he called it).
    I would consider returning at a later time in the day to try out some of the other guys but this experience was a solid A-/B+

    Recently saw Omar (Italian Turkish) and Carlos (I think that was his name) at G Man Spa. Omar was maybe mid 30s, muscular and very eager to please. Carlos was maybe late 20s Latino and muscular. Had a good time but was def more reserved than Omar. There was also a cute Asian guy named Tommy waiting in the sitting area (young skinny twink type). Not a huge fan of the spa setup but def some potential for those in that area

    Had Santiago a couple weeks ago.  The massage started out ok, although he didn't speak one word upon entering the room and until about 20 min into the massage where he asked if everything was ok.  I was on my back in under 30 min and he was done and out of the room in under 45 min.  I usually tip well, but shortage of time is an automatic $20 reduction in tip and non repeat for me (this usually doesn't happen here, but seems happening more often as it did with one of the asian guys that I didn't get his name (I think Nick) last month.  I can't understand why they do this - offer an average/slightly above average massage, but ruin it by cutting off 10-15 min?!?!?!?  Crazy that ten more min of massage I would have probably been a repeat customer and left at least a $20 larger tip. The strangest thing about Santiago is when he ended the massage he just did a half assed job of cleaning off the oil and left the room without saying anything (I thought he went to get another towel since it was still under 45 min into the massage and I was still sticky with oil).  After laying there for well over 5 min waiting, I got dressed and got the hell out feeling like I wasted time and money.

    I was in Chelsea today around the corner from G man and decided to give it a try. 
    I was limited on time so I only went in for a 30 minute massage.
    I was greeted by a young, 20-something, cute Asian guy named Tom who said he could see me immediately.  He showed me to the front room that has the window that faces the street.
    The room was clean but was just a little smaller compared to other places.
    He was very nice although not really too talkative.  He made me comfortable and immediately went to work on my back.
    Overall, the massage was good and pretty sensual; but it ended about 5 minutes early which I'm not complaining about since I was on a tight schedule.
    PM me for additional details or if you have any questions.

    I can recommend Troy at East Men.  60 minute session that started good and kept getting better - and no discussion of tipping.

    I've had Dan twice in the past year. While I liked him the first time, the second time wasn't as great. (Maybe he was having a bad day).  I haven't requested him again as I've had better experiences with a few of the other guys.

    So I guess I took one for the team and went to M&J today after buying the three 90 minute sessions for $65 on Groupon.
    After purchasing, I called and made my appointment. About 15 minutes before I arrived, I received a text from them asking to if I could arrive 15 minutes later as they were running behind. It wasn't a big deal for me, so I said yes.
    The spa is in a typical Manhattan small office building on the 6th floor. Only one of the three elevators was working so there were a lot of people waiting.
    Upon arrival, it was nicely furnished and clean. One of the owners, Jimmy, immediately took me to the room. It was clean and decent but didn't look as nice as HK or 27's room.
    Before we started, I told Jimmy that I needed to cut the time down to an hour which he was happy to do.
    The massage was very therapeutic and Jimmy definitely gave me a great massage with some sensual elements. It ended in the usual fashion and that was pretty good too. (No extras were discussed).
    Jimmy is Asian and in his 40s/50s and he obviously has been trained in providing different types of massage techniques (Swedish, some shiatsu too). He was very friendly as well and apologized for running late. I did see another Asian guy in his 20s in the waiting room when I was leaving and Jimmy said that usually there's always someone on staff ready for walk-ins but today he was short staffed.
    It was a different experience from what I'm used to at HK & 27. I would consider going back because I bought the 3, 90 minutes body work package but only if a) I was in the area or b) if 27 or HK couldn't accommodate my schedule.
    They also have a loyalty program where if you have 5 1 hour massage you get a free 30 minutes one on your next visit.
    Hope this helps!
