Howwever, I am definitely going down to try the fresh goodies today and will report ASAP.......
I don't usually do a long write up, but since this place is new and you made it sound so great, I'll write a little more details about this new place Spa D'Casarina (formerly at the Body Bliss location at Upper Thomson).

Bro, I went to check out this place. 1 hr $35. Got some kind of card reward system, where after 6 or 7 get 1 session free (can't remember details as I'm usually not interested in such promos).

The rooms are pretty standard leh, massage bed, shelf with some oils, and hanger to hang clothes. The music is standard elevator music, not exactly the soothing new-age music that "higher-class" more expensive spa/resorts play.

Didn't see any of the beauties you saw. Besides the one who massage me, I only saw another middle aged PRC looking lady sitting in one of the rooms behind when I went to the shower/toilet behind.

The person who massaged me I think is local Chinese around mid to late 20s? Looks nothing spectacular, short hair, wear specs, average looks. Massage skills slightly lacking, press, press here and there; seems inexperienced; she tried to use her knees on the back of my tighs (I'm lying face down) and she somehow slipped and apologised. Only good point about the massage is at the end when I sat up and then she use her elbows and forearm to massage the neck and back. At least more power and she try to massage out some knots in my neck/back.

Overall, acceptable massage for TN I guess. I usually go to Hot Spa at Roxy or some resort spa type for good clean massage, where the girls are more skilled. Actually I don't really see the point to have younger girls doing the massage if one is going for clean massage. (Usually the older ones are more skilled and provide better massage).

Minus point for the place is that I don't think they change the towel covering the massage bed/table, because the lady was re-arranging that towel, and smoothening it out after my session! At least need to change the small towel covering the hole in the bed lah, if not stink! I'm pretty particular about this because even though it's clean massage and no special, you can still catch some nasty stuff like fungal infection from the previous guy!!! Last time one of my buddies who frequent TNs kenna some kind of fungal infection/ringworm on his belly area before.

All-in-all, not too bad an experience, but nothing great and I don't think I'll be going back there. For clean massage, there are several choices around that area, can go across the street, got Javanese, another Tuina (think name Rainbow), next door got tradition of massage and another Chinese Tunia. For those with special, around that area also got!
