Scheduled a massage appointment with Emmie and confirmed an hour before. Drove 45 minutes in heavy traffic to her place, rang the bell, knocked on the door, called several times, and waited about 30 minutes. Nada. 45 minute ride home feeling disappointed.
Asian massage places are OK but I thought Emmie would be a good alternative. Alas. I wonder if, because I made the trip, I'm entered into her drawing for a free 90 minute massage... http://minneapolis.backpage.com/TherapeuticMassage/fall-special-drawing-end-of-week-for-free-90-minute-massage-have-to-come-in-for-apt-to-enter/1226161I saw her several months ago and wrote an honest review that was pulled after a day or two because she complained. Her pics are VERY old. She is VERY heavy. Gives a mediocre-at-best massage. There is (or was) a recent review that was spot on... her stretch pants literally push the boundaries of stretch. Too bad you made the drive, but at least you didn't pay the fee.
It is a wonder how many 5s and 6s one girl can get before guys stop going to someone.
Awhile back I visited a provider who had mostly 6s, both Performance and Appearance (and some 5s on Appearance). And I got what was probably the best massage/HE combo I've ever had. That's what she does, and that's all I was looking for that day. I gave her a 6/6 but would gladly see her again, except she's moved on.
I appreciate the additional feedback each of you provided and I re-read reviews. I enjoy a bigger gal, Savannah Belle is pretty much an ATF, if I'm using the parlance correctly. Karley and RaynaParis are on my wish list. My experience with Trisha wasn't as herself, and others, have raved about.
It sounds like Emmie has the capacity to do a deeper tissue massage, which I prefer, and in the e-mail we've exchanged since the NCNS, she sounds playful, fun, and genuine. Given the escalating costs of FBSM, she's more in my price range even though it sounds more like FBM.
Emmie sent a few additional pictures and what was most visually off-putting was a pink Packers cap. And playing with the phone during the course of a massage is a huge turn off for me...
