A Trip Back to 4U Spa

Probably the worst spa experience I had so please read on...

It was a Sunday early morning, I woke up with aching legs after some treadmill workout on the night prior. Sabi ko sa sarili ko, di naman siguro masama na ipamper sarili ko since I am working too hard that I forget to spoil myself.

So much of that, so anyway, I went to 4U Spa since my VIP Card will entitle me for a 15% discount on this visit. I availed of 2 hours so I only paid P510 at the reception.

I asked if Jake was there since alam na ni Jake saan ang problem areas ko, unfortunately, kakauwi lang daw niya. The receptionist asked me to choose from the roster of masseurs displayed.

There is this complete stand out. He is while, twinky and innocent-looking masseur named "Flash" who really caught my attention. I chose him.

He accompanied me at the last cubicle and soaked my feet in the footsoak. Then he asked me to undress. I left my underwear on intentionally since I just wanted to relax, nothing more.

To my surprise, he massages better that Jake. The pressure and effort he is putting in his massage is a "masseur-quality" massage and not a pucho-puchong spa massage.

This is the bad part. He whispered, "Sir, papa extra ka ba?"

"Hindi muna, masakit lang talaga katawan ko kaya ako nagpamassage." I politely replied.

He continued seducing me by positioning his private part in front of me while massaging my abdomen and chest. Then he started playing with my nipples.

"Ser para todo todo yung relax nyo. 3k, magpapalabas din ako."

Umiling ako since I don't really want to avail. Then the price went down to 2.5k, 2k, then 1.5k and finally 1k.

Nainis ako so medyo pinatulan ko na. I told him this, "Si Jake, di namimilit. Nagkataong wala lang siya kaya ikaw kinuha ko."

He stood quietly and worked on my groin area.

"Sige na sir, 1k lang. Jajakulin lang kita. Bawal mo akong hawakan." He insisted.

"Wala akong pera eh, at kung meron man, masyadong mahal. Si Jake, usually 500-700 lang presyuhan namin. Yun lang, lamang ka magmasahe. Mas magaling ka sa kanya." I argued.

'Ser, iba iba presyo namin dito. Ako, mataas presyo ko kasi madaming nagrerequest." he replied.

Napaisip ako, ang hambog pala nito ah. I asked him to finish the massage as I am not interested in any of what he is offering.

Parang nawalan siya ng gana magmassage hanggang matapos ang oras. Afterwhich, hindi niya ako binigyan ng hot towel. And unlike Jake, he did not open the door for me when I was about to go out.

Sometimes, looks can be deceiving. When choosing a masseur, bear in mind that the purpose of you visiting the spa is for relaxation. Ask for a masseur who knows how to massage.
