Definitely pausing on things given the current situation. I think it is crazy risky for anyone to behave otherwise right now. I know it is enticing and I miss things also, but you all need to be safe right now until this passes over. The fleeting moments of fun are not worth it at this time. Soon you’ll be able to resume visits. In the meantime, use your imagination if you don’t have anyone to take care of things in the meantime. Seriously, don’t put yourself at risk.

How do we know when this will end? There is no vaccine and the only measures that are being taken now are to "flatten the curve". I quit watching any TV reports as it seems every station is trying to outdo the other in raising the level of hysteria. I for one am right in the middle of the target demographic for this virus, late 60's but HEALTHY and while I don't feel I'm bullet proof I'm not changing my life around this. Whole cities (Hoboken for one) are starting a 10pm to 5 am curfew. I guess the virus sleeps at night! You can't gather in groups of 100 or more. Guess 99 is the magic number and god forbid #100 comes walking in. Guess were all in trouble. I'm not downplaying the seriousness of this but I think common sense has gone out the window. What good is a two week quarantine when afterwards you can walk out to the store and still catch it from somebody. I believe until they find a vaccine the best prevention is the advice that has been lost in the noise. Eat right. get enough sleep and basically stay as healthy as possible. Same advice as we get to avoid the flu. Just my two cents. And NO I'm not upset over missing my weekly massage, I just want to be able to buy some toilet paper DAMMIT!!!

my ATF and MMS just texted me she is worried now that some towns in NJ enforce early closure of bars and restaurants so probably also spa's...I dont know about you guys but actually thats not bad news : i always prefer to go in mornings or early afternoons to avoid "party"crowds in evening...yes some spa's are closing but those are high volume usually C-girls places I no longer frequent anyway because K-girls are cleaner and more exclusive and discreet: She plans to offer some extra's like 4 hands and extended sessions to regular repeat veteran customers who stick to trustworthy providers...i think this could be a win-win situation for us as well as them: strengthen relationships with more trust and benefits for both...don't you agree ? but we must continue to show solidarity with and support for these wonderful creatures who make us happy...RIGHT ?

Problem with that is your ATF can get it from someone that hasn’t shown symptoms yet then she passes it on to you. So whether you come early or not to avoid those party crowds, you’re getting pretty close to someone that gets pretty close to the crowds regardless.

As long as your healthy and have no major issues you end up with a bad cold. The only problem is yes you could spread it but you can do that with the flu. Difference is we have a vaccine (NOT A CURE} for influenza. How many people die every year from the flu and we don't shut the country down for that. We just all need to use common sense. If you don't feel well stay home. We damn sure can't rely on the government nor should we. Hell every year they tell us to get the flu vaccine and then follow that up later with " Well its a different strain this year so it might not be that effective"

this morning i had my last session- as always heavenly!- with my atf at ASAHI spa ( also U relax 22) in scotch plains nj when she informed me they would be closing until further notice as of that afternoon...:cry:..sad news but they are cautious, considerate and wise K girls who apparently care less about the money than our health (and of course their own...can't blame them !) MMS assured me that exclusive private appointments would still be available but only for trustworthy long standing repeat customers who would still be screened heavily and selectively (again in everyone's interest !) so those of us who can look in the eye the man in the mirror : not everything is lost !

Just hope that every spa can survive this crisis. After all they still have to pay the rent
my atf mms contacted owner of building to discuss lowering rent for a while...no result yet but owners don't have much choice either: these spa's are costly to reconfigure into other kind of business..so some leverage. We'll see. My italian landlord lowered my apt rent in nyc after 9/11...but not for long ! it's all quite interesting

You are going to see some of these spa closing for good if goes behind the 2 weeks and I will not be surprised if some of these girls they are not coming back

Just like all of us, many providers are very concerned about this virus. Some have decided not to work even if theire spas stayed open. So the money doesn't override everything.

I applaud places like BCT for expressing their concern. Mandy is an excellent communicator. I think many spas feel that way but can't begin to express it as well.

Many spas closed voluntarily because all the girls are scared of COVID-19. No one can do a massage six feet away. There is no sign of the end of the pandemic in the near future that I am afraid a good rub and tub could become a lost art
