Mine took place in NYC. I had first come across his RM profile when he lived overseas. I put him on my “One Day Wish List.” He moved to NY and I met him when I was there for a weekend. It was incredibly underwhelming. First, it was in a communal space where guys rent rooms for massages. He was running behind schedule with his previous appointment, so he ran out in bikini briefs and had me sit in a massage room. While sitting there, others guys kept coming in, looking at me waiting and then walking out. Not discreet and very uncomfortable. When I finally got on the table, the massage was so underwhelming I should have stopped and left. I guess I was waiting for it to get better. He kept using one hand to massage while texting with his other. By the time we got to the end, I just wanted it to be over. He messaged me after asking if I wanted to book another session. I never responded. He’s someone who gets good reviews on here, but alas mine was the opposite of most others experiences.

Just came across this place on RM, has anyone been? Looks like another Teddy spot… https://www.serenity-thai-massage.com/male-therapists I searched the spa name but didn’t really find anything. I know Tony has been mentioned before. Definitely interested in Eric and Tony. Any experiences?

I went and tried the new spot. It was a mixed experience. While TWS is in the apex of a busy strip mall, Silverlake Wellness is a bit more inconspicuous as it’s tucked away off a busy street. It’s a standalone building. I like the setup inside TWS more. I booked a session with Parker as I thought he was really cute in his pics on the website. His look in person was different than those online. I left underwhelmed with my session. He may get better with experience.

I recently saw Kuay for the first time. Pros: He looks like his pictures. He’s cute and has a rocking body. Seems to have training. Cons: Not very engaging. Didn’t ask about pressure or check in. Clearly has a routine and sticks to it. I think he was getting sick or getting over being sick. Stopped mid massage to go to the bathroom and let a loud one rip. There are lots of talented masseurs and others I’d like to try, I don’t think I’ll repeat.

They have tables in private rooms.

I recently went to Silverlake Wellness Spa for my first visit and it was a mixed experience overall. I saw Parker. He was cute and nice but the massage was a bit clunky and rough. Not sure if I would return. Hopefully improves with age/experience. He looks a bit different from the pictures online as he currently has a shaved head and mustache. I appreciate the discretion of the spa being a standalone place on a side street. TWS can be a lot as it’s the crux of a very busy strip mall. Silverlake is a lot more quiet comparatively.

There have been some posts about this spa in another topic, but thought it would be helpful to have a fresh thread just for SWS. There are some familiar faces from Thai Wellness Studio. I know Teddy runs both places. https://www.fresha.com/a/silverlake-wellness-spa-los-angeles-2650-griffith-park-boulevard-iecoidd1 Has anyone booked Parker yet? Feel free to DM me. Thx

I believe you are correct. That is the same place that Brian used to run as well.

I’m always equal parts intrigued and envious of the NYC Spas forum. There are so many to choose from, all over the city. I’m hoping maybe us SoCal gents can create a topic that discusses (and hopefully uncovers) some hidden gems. We know of the main spas - Prince, TWS, Candle, etc. Where else have any of you visited that is worth checking out? I used to love Brian at Full Moon and Andy at Candle. Recently I have enjoyed Andre at TWS. Any new recommendations?

Unfortunately I’ve asked a few times and they only do one-on-one sessions at TWS.

I absolutely will. 😁

Definitely helps! Appreciate it, Atticus.

Thank you guys for your recommendations. I really appreciate it. Now to decide between Alvin at Energy, Kenny at TSMS, Jay at Batman and Jay at Spa 27. Alvin got 2 votes so he’s not n the lead. 😈 Appreciate the insight! Happy holidays.

Happy Holidays, gents. I’ll be traveling to NY next week and am looking for a deep massage with sensual elements. As on out-of-towner, trying to comb through the 261 pages of this topic is very confusing. I need a flowchart and a breakdown. LOL I even used ChatGPT and it gave me a breakdown, but I have no idea if it’s trustworthy with the listed guys still working at spas. Long story longer, hoping you NYC regulars could kindly point me in the direction of a great massage by a hot Asian masseur. (Hot is relative, but like more built/masculine over twink.) Only experience I’ve had to date is Andy at W and that was fun. I have notes for Jay at Batman. Jack at Energy. Ethan or Jay at 27 Men Spa. Any guidance, tips or recommendations would be appreciated. Thank you 🙏🏻
