The Soapy Massage

My first experience of massage was in an exhibition centre in the middle of Leeds in about 1969. I was there caring for a Giant Pacific Octopus but was waylaid by two girls working in the Sauna across the way.

The next was in the Dolphin House in Cleethorpes Zoo & Marineland and carried out by the lovely Angela L. My fiancée went up the wall and so it never happened again.

In my Turkish travels I avoided massage like the plague. The idea of some 400 pound male twisting my body into knots definitely did not appeal. Besides who would carry my backpack if I was injured.

When I moved into India I succumbed eventually to requests to be given an Ayurverdic massage. It was not a pleasant experience in spite of the masseur re-assuring me of its advantages. Offers of a 'Flying Massage' turned me cold.

Eventually I arrived in Bangkok. Here my first massage was a two girl naked massage. A quite unforgettable experiece. There were others similar and not so similar.

I have now enjoyed Oil Massage, Leg Massage, Head Massage, Electric Chair Massage, Aroma Massage, Indonesian Massage, Thai Massage, Blind Massage, Bubble Massage, Swedish Massage (I even have a dim recollection of a Hungarian Massage) in parlours, in Temples, in the street, on the beach in places in Thailand, Philippines, Malaysia, Vietnam, Cambodia and others.

All of this of course has been in the interests of science and the pursuit of pleasure.

Prices vary, as does the experience but for me the most memorable, and most expensive, of all was the Soapy Massage.

The Soapy Massage is very much like it sounds. A massage with soap! At its most basic I suppose it could be compared with being given a bath by your mother when you were a tiny defenceless baby but the similarities begin and end at the same spot.

No it isn't! Though it primarily is. The experience is open to all. Whatever your sex, you are the customer and client. You can decide how things will go, when to stop.

The Soapy Massage experience is not available everywhere. It is more a city based operation and geared very much for the tourist industry. I can well imagine that idea originally came out of Japan as there are comparisons with the Japanese bathing routine.

There are Soapy Massage parlours in Pattaya, Phuket and Bangkok. All big tourist destinations.

I have only had one Soapy Massage and that was at Christin Massage in Phuket in Thailand. It was great, a once in a lifetime experience and I would highly recommend it to anyone.

The massage parlour is somewhat different to many that you will see in Thailand. It is a huge palatial type of building in comparison to many massage parlours you will see.

The client enters a Hotel type door and climbs a set of stairs and enters a small bar area. Here there are about a dozen tables, each with about four chairs where customers can relax over a drink. The tables face onto a huge glass window (known as the fish bowl) behind which sit a number of very attractive young ladies. They are spaced out, watching TV, chatting, putting on make up and appear very relaxed. They can all see whoever is looking at them very clearly. They smile. Each girl is well dressed in clothes of her choice and each wears a small numbered tag.

For the customer it is a bit like choosing a product at a supermarket. It may sound distasteful, tacky or sleazy even, but it isn't at all. The atmosphere is pleasant and relaxed on both sides of the glass.

The customer makes his or her choice and gives the girls number to the supervisor. The supervisor is there to advise and assist with any special requests. This is noted down and a price quoted. I understand that prices range upwards from about 1,500-5,000 Thai Baht. The supervisor hands his note to the cashier and you hand over your money.

The girl appears and escorts you to a lift. The layout and design is very much like a hotel. Each girl has her own special room but I did note that design and layout are all very much the same.

The rooms are beautifully clean and furnished with setee, TV, music centre and a large double bed. This opens onto the massage area which is a sunken bath and tiled area on which lies a Lilo.

In the room the girl asks you to sit on the setee and listen to music whilst she starts the bath running and generally readies things for the massage to come.

One everything is prepared you are asked to undress and so does she. My girl was called 'Ong', was as tall as myself, 25 years old and had a magnificent body. She was also a very friendly and talkative girl. I would have been happy to take her home to meet mother.

I was then requested to lie face down on the Lilo. She then covered me in warm very soapy water. Just that alone was a lovely feeling but it got better. She used her body to soap and 'scrub' me all over. Her body massaged every inch of mine. It wasn't hands...it was body, bits of body. It would be so easy to say it was an erotic and sensual experience. It was...without a shadow of a doubt, but it was more, much more than that.

Back all done, then turn over and more of the same plus a feast for the eyes. It wasn't smutty, it wasn't dirty, it was a very clean, friendly and for lack of a better word 'loving' experience. I was soaped everywhere...I mean everywhere. It was good, it was great.

Soaping over and we then climbed into the bath together. Here she washed me and massaged some more. A very supple young lady who managed to use bits of her on bits of me in ways I had never really thought about before.

Then the bath was over. A quck warm shower. Crisp clean dry towels. Lovely.

And I am not going to do so either. That came next on the double bed.

Afterwards we talked at length. I tipped her and we dressed. She returned me to reception saying she would like to see me again. She went back to work and I went for lunch.

I have often wondered what, if asked for a one last request. Now I know. It would be for a Soapy Massage.
