Review Golden Hand Massage

[Wills_willie]

Saw a new place advertised on Kijiji. Did a walk in for an hour massage. To start it was legit, but they have only been open for a week. The massage was an 8/10, but that's just me, I probably have a lower standard than most. I would say it was semi undrapped as she moved the sheet down the backs of my legs to massage my butt. At that time I'm thinking, YES, saddly, no . She did a great job with pressure and hit the right spots in my lower back, butt and legs where I was having issues.
Will definately repeat with the hope of that elusive happiness

Any info on what the therapist looked like? I’ll try it out

 

[Wills_willie]

She was slim, on the taller side for an Asian masseuse. Knew her way around the muscle groups, with good pressure.

I would say it was semi undrapped as she moved the sheet down the backs of my legs to massage my butt.

That definitely is not "professional" draping, so I'd say there could be more available with further visits.

I saw Jiali 2 weeks ago at this place. Description matches with her.

I see a very legit massage only therapist for very deep tissue work on a regular basis who doesn't feel the need to cut of my blood circulation with a so called "professional draping". So I wouldn't try to read too much into that. Nothing is worse than a therapist who wasted 6 or 7 minutes of a precious 60 minutes massage trying to re-adjust the "professional draping". It destroys the flow. Give me a frigging break

Long time lurker and seldom poster. Recent visit to Golden Hands Massage. Like any typical massage session, I filled out the paperwork and eagerly awaited my turn for some relaxation. The therapist led me to the room and instructed me to get under the sheets. In my innocent attempt to provide a subtle clue, I intentionally left my butt exposed.

Despite the initial hilarity, I must admit that the massage itself was truly enjoyable. There was some elbows used. For the most part the women knew what she was doing. The therapist had a knack for teasing when she undraped area to work on my leg. It was like a little game of peek-a-boo with my... umm... family jewels out in the open air. Quite the unexpected stretch, I must say!

As the massage progressed to the flip side, things got even funnier. She started massaging my scalp and gradually worked her way down. Naturally, "Junior" decided to make his presence known, but unfortunately, the therapist didn't quite catch the hint. Poor guy, feeling all neglected!

Towards the end of the session, my curiosity got the better of me, and I couldn't resist asking if there was more to come. Alas, I left with nothing but misfortune on my drive home. Sometimes life just doesn't go according to plan, right?

Not much more to add to these reviews. The set up is just like any other spa. Lady greet you, take you to small room, table with hole, small table beside,…draping was just loose. Kind of like why bother loose. Had a legit massage although there might be more?!? Didn’t enquire didn’t get. Didn’t hear the name. Also I didn’t get any paperwork to fill out…

The highlight?!? Eating at Cebuchon next door. DELISH! Repeat every time I’m near!!!

 

[Littlestuff]

Can also confirm, Cebuchon is pretty good, nice change of pace lunch-time meal.

What makes you think there’s more? Seems like everyone else who went got shut down?

 

[turts]

The general vibe and feeling is more of a semi legit place than legit. Then again…so was del sol and amazing…

 

[Dudelio]

Had the same experience as reported before. Cute therapist, great massage... definitely repeating.

My two cents about the place. Actually had a little trouble with the complex as the place is deep at the back, right next to the dirt lot. Lots of parking once you are there as many people park on the dirt. The place is new and clean, the massage rooms are pretty spacious and the bathroom is super clean (dirty bathroom is a personal no-no for me). Did not use shower so don't know.

The two regular everyday RMTs are Jialin and Tara.

Tara is the older of the 2, had short shorts on with an oriental themed uniform top when I visited showing quite a bit of of her toned legs. Hard to guess age with mask on, 40+? Solid body despite her age. She was friendly enough before the massage started then went all quiet/professional once the massaged started. Asked for deep and received above average medium, not the best but acceptable. Draping was extremely loose, the thin sheet got thrown all over the place; once the massage got to the legs, she pretty much just ignored draping and went all out on the thighs and butts. That's actually her best selling point, very few legit masseuse digs into the glutes. She wasn't overly friendly or talkative during or after the massage; not sure if she wants repeat business or not.

Jialin is the taller young one, likely sub30, hard to tell with mask on. Yoga pants and oriental themed uniform top covering her average 20 something body. Super quiet before, during, after the massage; almost moody. Asked for deep and received below average medium. Draping was on the loose side but was more conservative than Tara. No, she did not dig into the glutes like Tara did. If you like them young, she is good for that. As for a true deep tissue massage, she did not deliver.

For $105 ($100 plus tax) an hour, strictly legit, not the best vfm in town given their skills/strengths. No extras offered or requested; 100% legit. YMMV.

Both of them did it, when they hear the door, they stop to listen. A personal pet peeve, when you have a client on the table, focus on him 100%, let the other lady handle the walk-in.

Done my due diligence of this place, moving on to the next.

I didn't even stay tbh. The walk in, looking in a room at how the table was set up, getting the form to fill out - too much legit for me to bother.

Thanks for the in depth review! That is the exact experience here. You visited with both ladies? Good for you!! Hope you went to cebuchon next door!

I visited here recently. I saw both Jialin and Tara without masks. Agree that Jialin is in her 20's, however, I'm thinking Tara is closer to 50's.

Went with Jialin. Massage was ok. Requested deep tissue but was more like relaxation. Draping was loose. Glutes exposed while she worked on them, one cheek at a time. For a minute I thought something may happen when she climbed on the table to wipe the oil off my back. But alas, nothing.

I was able to get them both to waive the forms. I whined a little and they were good with no forms.

I did go in to Cebuchon, they were SO BUSY even at like 4pm, the lechon was excellent. Going to try the deep fried version next. Lechon is already good, deep frying it got to be better, right?

Pretty much the same here, when glutes are exposed and the twig & berries are hanging out, I had expected at least a tease or something if extras can be had. These girls just massaged around them as if they don't exist. My personal guess is that they are not Canadian trained. North Americans are always more prude about nudity etc., masseuses elsewhere (including Europe) don't care much about nudity/draping. Given their demeaner, the lack of friendly interactions during massages, they are not there for the extra tips. My best guess only. YMMV.

i guess this makes sense. This is why my original comment about feeling that there might be more. But I think I won’t be returning much as there are other places. Maybe a drop in if I’m having lechon but not the other way around.

Had the same experience with the shorter, older provider. Very good deep tissue massage. But for $105 + tip? Yikes...
