Posts: 180Thanks Codex. Well at my age time is short and travel cheap so have to keep going!. LOL....Phils, Japan, Uganda, Germany and Brazil in this trip! But thanks for that extra info and encouragement. I will check it out. I have another expensive option but it's nice to have a backup. Will report after I give it a burl! More later.
Cheers.
Bubba

Thanks.

Posts: 180Thanks Homer. Appreciate that. Ha! I developed that thick skin about knockbacks in high school but you just keep trying. For sure I will give it a go and let people know what happens!

Posts: 41Listen to this guy! Homer is a decent guy.
Bubba! Who are you?
Judging by your posts, you are the James Bond / Casanova of this site!
Do you get paid to travel the world a sample the worlds finest service providers? LOL.
Anyway, the link I provided gives you the exact location and cost of the shop. You will need to organize some type of gps mapping to help you find it as Japanese streets are difficult to navigate.
As Bubba said, once you find it, enter and try your best. Depending on the Minder (Tencho) and the keenness of the girl (yes or no) you will be accepted or not.
If it doesn't go well, there are some places nearby that can give you an authentic Japanese experience at a much higher price (Club Amour). And around these are plenty of Chinese places offering massage+ for a decent price.
Hope it goes well for you!
If you have problems check back, and Ill see what I can advice.
Rant below;
I rarely browse this site since some members burned me a while ago.
I spend a lot of money "researching" and have had some goldmines shut down by others.
Be considerate and understanding of the service providers, and be willing to be respectful to those who reject you.

Posts: 464These sister shops are all in Dotonbori. They are hotel healths and it may be a challenge without basic Japanese skills. It is going to depend on the tencho and whether or not a lady is available to service you. It won't hurt to try but you need to be thick-skinned and be ready to be turned down. Hotel healths go to local hotels and the room quality varies greatly. The problem with no language skills is you won't be able to communicate about this. You may be put into a sub-par, small room which is nothing more than a booth, or you may get a nice room with nice bed and bath. You could hit the jackpot and find a tencho who speaks a little English and there is a lady there willing to go with you, but don't expect much before you try.

Posts: 180Codex. Help needed!
Hi Codex.
Thanks for this post. My first trip to Japan coming up and this place is exactly what I was looking for. But together with Illegal, can I ask for a few more details. E. G. Better indication of location, which floor and exactly what is offered in a standard service? . I see how you can order specials. Also my Japanese is non existent (I almost typed "almost non existent". But lets be honest"). Is it possible to be accepted here for a older, well dressed guy arriving during off peak (morning until mid afternoon)
Thanks for your help.
Bubba.

Basically, you pay, wait in the small room and when the lady is ready you walk down the stairs and go to the hotel. She filled the tub, scrubbed and dried off and proceeded to the bed. Usual small talk and then she proceeded to get to work. She does DFK but I'm not too thrilled about that during the winter when all of these cold and flu bugs are going around. I guess if that's your thing then you can ask for it.
In my experience with this place and prior when it was Frejia, the skill and performance is not like a soap or full-blown fashion health. It is more like amateur housewives working very hard to make a living. This is a bargain-basement place and the price reflects it. They don't get the best or highest skilled ladies. The place down the hall on the same floor does but it is not gaijin-friendly at all and a whole lot more expensive (14000 or something like that for 40 minutes) , if I recall. I've used them but the younger professional ladies are just not my thing, too mechanical, too professional and not very much in the personality department, if you get my drift.

Posts: 226Soapland
Hey everyone,
My first go on the Japanese forum here. I live in Korea and will be going to Osaka for the weekend. I know Japan and Korea are similar with a lot of places not being foreigner friendly. I was hoping to get a tip on a Soapland style place in Osaka that is ok with foreigners. The body2body soap massage and FS style place. Any tips that will keep me from having to wander to much would be great. I will keep reading through the forum, but a lot of the Japanese terms I'm not sure of what they actually offer. PM me if possible. Thanks.
FLT.

Posts: 464Tsumaten Umeda
Visited Tsumaten last week. This place is well reported here. Whity exit from Umeda Station. It is a reliable gaijin-friendly (basic Japanese absolutely required) hotel-health housewife places. I picked Yuzu. 38, bigger gut than I expected but no problem for me, speaks no English, very friendly, OK face but basically a housewife who looks like a housewife and gives good BBJCIM. She asked me what I wanted to do and I told her FS was not necessary, BBBJ and she seemed relieved. CIM was a bonus and she didn't run to the sink to rinse out right after, either. I don't know if FS is available with the 60-minute course or not. Never tried, never asked and didn't need it. If I want FS I go to Tennoji.
That said, the hotel was decent, a real hotel, not one of those basic rooms, either. Nice size, very clean, nice bath, comfortable bed, etc. One word of warning, you will get an older, plain looking lady here, she will not be stunningly cute or dress really nice, either. This is a housewife place and they all dress the part in my experience so don't expect a stunner or diva. You will get what you pay for. I happen to like those kind of ladies. They are not girl next door, either. They are more like girl next door's mother. They will have one or many of the usual flaws: overweight, slightly smelly, homely, scars, matronly clothes, bad teeth, bad hair, etc. But one thing I have not experienced is bad service. Always got BBBJ, occasional CIM, usually not.

Also, what do you get for the basic system (60 min for 8000)? I see some options, am I right that 8000 gets you AF means anal? What are the other options providing?
Thanks in advance!
