Where to Get a Good Massage... just a massage :)
Where to Get a Good Massage... just a massage :)
My wife and I have been here for 10 months now and I am looking for a great back/neck massage that won't break the bank, also interested in reflexology. Work is stressful and I feel like I have knives digging into my shoulder blades and am looking for a good place.. Anyone have any recommendations??

This has been discussed before in recent months so try the search engine located just below the "Profile" link at the upper right on this page. That way you will have more choices if those posters don't happen to see your thread.

...speaking of searching for massages, I tried looking for blind masseurs because guaranteed, they only deal with just massage: http://forum.singaporeexpats.com/sutra18109.html

Here's a tip: If the young lady at the front door is wearing a cocktail dress and spike heels, you're probably looking at a place that offers happy endings. If the girls are wearing jeans and a T-shirt, probably not.
Oddly enough, the foot reflexology place on the first floor of Four Floors is straight up. Good back and body massages as well. Expect to pay $60 an hour wherever you go for a good massage. If it's less, it's probably because the girls are making their money in "tips".

Good Massage Corner To Share
Hi I would strongly recommend: 'TT Quick Massage' in Novena Sq 2 #02-18. Take to Novena MRT & take the lift upto Novena Sq 2.
It only cost $10 for 10mins back & shoulder or neck & shoulder massage.
Not only cheap but good service! You can also pay a bit more for a longer massage or sign up a package!

Erm... $10 for 10 minutes is $60 per hour... about the going rate for most straight up massage parlors, not counting the 'boutique' variety.iMails wrote:It only cost $10 for 10mins back & shoulder or neck & shoulder massage. Not only cheap but good service!

I'm looking for a good massage place, too. Back, neck, shoulders. Deep tissue is best. But I specifically need a recommendation of someone who gives a gentle and s-l-o-w massage. Too often, I feel like my muscles are being injured. Any recommendations for this?

Look for sport injuries practitioner, maybe the pro football team masseur. Though I have purchased a great machine, electronic acupressure meridian points. which actually saved me having an operation on both knee cartilages which had been squashed flat, with down hill running. It took 3 months of daily treatment, but I was back running without pain.singmom wrote:I'm looking for a good massage place, too. Back, neck, shoulders. Deep tissue is best.

Here's the machine http://www.owellbodycare.com/pdt/pdtt_heating.htm and it's been excellent value for money for me.
I have had it 3 years and still use it for stress and sports damage. It can do 2 people at one time, price was around 250 i think maybe more. Can be used while travelling too, without heat. It's made in Taiwan and designed on acupressure point manipulation on the meridian lines, which get blocked of qi, which you can actually see the difference visually by the aura colours around the body.

Good, cheap, clean (no hanky panky) massage can be found in People's Park Complex in Chinatown. Not all are clean though. Choose those bigger chains with lots of people having foot massage near the entrance or those with older folks and you should be safe. Sexy ladies at the entrance of small shops are no no.
About $18 to $20 for 45min foot massage. Body massage about $32 for 45 min. Cannot remember the exact rate. But I assure you, these are about the cheapest massage you can find in Singapore.
For the price you pay, don't expect something luxurious. Good clean powerful massage is what you get.

I've brought my fiance to a very nice but very affordable massage place. It's located at the end of River Valley Road, across the road from UE Square. It's called Healing Touch.
Rates go at $50-60 for 60 mins. They have all kinds of massage too. Balinese, Swedish..
He actually fell asleep during the massage which just showed how relaxing it was.
