Spas in NYC

[Guest fm0322]

On its Yelp page, Shangrila says they are re-opening today with the measures they are taking. Must wear masks, no table showers, appointments only etc. I probably won't be visiting any spas for another month or so to see how things go with the new round of openings.

I think it is important to point out that while there is no table shower, you can take a shower. I'm going there on Thursday and I will report

[hrlmguy]

I’m curious too but will wait until some fellow members report back. Hopefully most spas will be able to reopen.

My friend went to 27 and he wore a mask and said his masseuse wore a mask.

[Dellboy5]

Does anyone know if super men’s spa is open

oh interesting. glad to hear they're still in business. I wonder which masseurs are still working there or if it's all new

When Energy or Hush re-open, someone let me know.

It's difficult for me to visualize enjoying a massage while wearing a mask, especially with my face in a cradle. I'm sure the spas do their best to wipe down surfaces and spray with disinfectant, but what do clients know about the last client in the room? What do clients know about their masseur? Did they spend last night in a crowd, without social distancing and without masks? Do they kiss their boy friend? (Or friends?)

I miss going to the theater, eating in restaurants, major league baseball, and massages, but the risk:reward ratio is not in my favor in a spa, sorry to say. Very sorry to say, but I'd rather be safe than sorry.

Anyone heard if/when Time Square Mens will be opening?

On their Facebook page it said that it was opening yesterday July 6th with a picture of all sorts of disinfectants and thermometer as well.

Well said and thank you.

 

I, too, am not ready to return. To be in a small room with my face in a cradle that many before me were in, disinfectant or not, the risk isn't worth it for me. Everyone has to weigh their risk:benefit that best addresses their own sense of safety. The spas are reopening so the buisness survives, not necessarily that you survive.

yeah I'd have to agree. As tempting as it is, I think I'm gonna wait until there's a vaccine until I venture into situations that intimate in a closed space

If your main worry is surfaces, taking the first appointment of the day is your best bet.

Do you think each measure will clean everything table, room, surrounding items, etcs after done with earlier client?? I do not think so. I am NOT going until everything is good. I can NOT take my life on risk just for 1 hr massage.

[Guest]

My advise stay away for few more months or may be until next year. You have life, you have everything otherwise nothing.

I 100% agree. I do not want to inhale all the germs on the table.

Texted with Chen at Yeah Man. They won’t open until end of July at the earliest.

[Redwine56]

Babylon reopened (by appointment)

Would you know if Dylan is still there?

[nycmassageme]

I texted Ken and he said that Energy Men Spa has reopened. However he's no longer working there; he's (temporarily?) working out of a private studio on W46th.

Does anyone know who's back working at TSMS?

[Kody S]

Anyone know about Shangri-la? That was my go to in pre-covid days. I agree 100% it is t worth taking the risk. One might get away with it, but if not then there is hell to pay. And that would not make it anywhere close to worth it. I just feel bad for all the guys who aren’t employed as a result. Can you imagine the day when it is safe to go back? Maybe now is the time to book a year in advance just to save your spot on your favorite masseurs table. Lol

Adam is back.
