For the benefit of new people on massageplanet.net, and since there is now a precedent for offering reviews of MPs (that is searchable!), here is my two cents on that hallowed of institutions, Hands From Heaven. (And I hope the title of this post has deterred those tempted to sigh and write "not again!" by giving them the option to not even read this thread.)
This was my first visit to HFH and, admittedly, it was precisely because of all the hoopla on massageplanet.net of this MP and of Cameron that I went. That, and after my disastrous experience at Silhouette, I need a new favourite spa.
On to HFH. I wouldn't say that I have been to *tons* of MPs, but I have sampled about a dozen or so. And I would easily rank HFH with the nicest -- on par with Invisible Touch, for those familiar with that.
Very functional web site: www.handsfromheaven.ca. (Ok, I'm a geek... that is the first thing I look at.) Everything you need to know is there.
Parking is not a problem. It is in an industrial park, and I had no trouble finding a spot. It is not discreetly placed, so if you have to worry about being seen going in, well, you have to worry about seen going in. The location is quite far for me, off Pine Valley Dr. just north of the 407, but it is all highway, so it is fast.
Reception is standard fare. Greeted at a window, and you are let into the inner sanctum after paying the door fee ($40 for 30, $50 for 45). Just inside, there is a small lounge with two couches, some skin mags, and a TV with satellite.
The room I had was "standard" size, not huge, not small. There was a small couch that I did not feel creepy sitting on, dimmed lighting and candles, and one of those butler stand things to put your clothes on. Oh, and there was an incense burner but I didn't see any fresh incense sticks. I should've asked...
The shower was very clean, and had one of those swizzle heads that are very friendly to tall people like myself. The towels are also somewhat largish, again something I appreciate. The soap is not odourless, so if you are doing this sort of thing on the sly, beware that you might not smell the same coming home as you left.
I don't think we need another review of MPAs from HFH, so I won't go there. But I will say that Cameron was stunningly beautiful, offered fantastic service, and will be a definite repeat. (Kayla, please offer my thanks again to Cameron for a wonderful lunchtime visit.) The only other person I saw there was Lisa, and she was also a looker.
My point of mentioning MPAs at all is that the photos on the web site are very accurate. Prior to my finding massageplanet.net, the web site was all I used to determine whether or not to try a new place. If the photos sucked (or weren't there), or the site sucked, then I wouldn't go. What else could I do? Note to MP owners: Pay attention to your site! BTW, Kayla does a nice thing where three weeks of schedule is posted at a time, which makes it easier to plan ahead. I hated waiting for that Sunday rollover that inevitably happened on Monday at some other sites.
So, all in all, I think that HFH certainly lived up to its reputation, if you took its reputation to be a very clean, professionally run establishment where you knew what you were getting and didn't feel grossed out getting it. I definitely do not feel that their rep is unwarranted, and will visit again.
Of course, if you mistakenly took their rep to be the Bellagio, well then you might be a bit disappointed.
Hope this helps newcomers to massageplanet.net.
