Can anyone recommend a massage parlor in Portland where I can get a good sensual massage?  Thanks!

Check out the review section for Ambrese, Angelique, Jessica, Tia, and many others.

But are there any massage parlors, as opposed to independant providers?

Most reliable providers in Portland are independent. LE came down on the agencies big time a couple of years ago.

Rowdyone speaks the truth -- there aren't any classsic MPs in Portland -- the sort where you go in, have a look at a couple of providers, and then make your decision. There are purely theraputic places where licensed massage professionals give you a rubdown, but don't expect any services beyond that.

Should you wish extras, you need to visit such lovelies as Tia, Ambrese, Monique, or  (my personal fave) Amanda Pierce. Also a couple of our fine FS providers, Madison and Angelique, offer a FBSM option.

I've been offering FBSM for over 5 years...

Unfortunately, there are no "massage" joints in Portland.  There was a massage business near Gresham perhaps 4-5 years ago, but alas they were shut down by the Vera Katz Nazi's.  The closest true MP seems to be Tacoma.  I too would love to find a place that one can just drop in on a whim without making appointments days in advance (after all, when you're ready to go, who wants to wait days to let loose??).  If anybody has any other info., please let me know too.
