There seem to be very few experience shares about Kaohsiung, so I'll just share my own experience for those who still can't decide.

These write-ups are all personal experiences; everyone has their own preferences, so these are very subjective impressions. Clients pick therapists, and therapists of course pick clients, so I'm sharing what I felt for you readers.

Quick personal profile: 178/72/13.5/3.5

I won't say much about my face. My body isn't trained — soft flesh you can't tell, not obese.

Although it's a Gay SPA, my personal priority is massage > sexual services. Since the price is about the same, I naturally chose a handsome guy for the service. I also don't like body-slide/body-to-body massage (體推) — body contact can be erotic, but it gives no real massage feeling, so it feels pointless... Is it ridiculous to go to a Gay SPA and expect professional massage? But there are indeed therapists who give decent massages, which is why I didn't want a regular wellness center.

Others with the same experience are welcome to reply and share below; please avoid malicious smear campaigns, rumors, or shop-attacking flame wars.

[I experienced the "Thai Luxury B" package, 120 minutes]

According to the website the studio has two locations; I was assigned the one by the train station. It's an elevator apartment/building next to the intercity bus terminal (not certain). The therapist looked quite different from the photos, but the website photos were blurry so I didn't think much of it (customer service said those were his only two photos and there were no others).

The studio was dark because the lights were off. The setup was simple so you couldn't tell how clean it was. The space was average and not large (about 4 ping or so). A large curtain covered the other side where supplies were probably kept; the therapist was also taking towels and undressing there.

I told customer service I didn't like the therapist washing me, but they said it was included in the session time, so I didn't mention it to the therapist. He came out already undressed holding a towel.

The washing was very simple — just rinsing and some teasing. From what I saw there seemed to be only one bottle of body wash and one bar of soap... During the rinsing the therapist kept wearing a hat, which I found strange. I asked if he wasn't worried about it getting wet; he said he wasn't (and he wore the hat throughout the entire massage until I left).

During the massage he said to tell him if I wanted the pressure adjusted; I replied OK. After that the only exchanges were asking if I needed to use the toilet and whether to turn face up or face down — nothing else. I can chat or be quiet, but since the therapist didn't start conversations, maybe he was waiting for me to speak?

The acupressure was firm.

But since he's not a professional, it felt like he was just pressing the usual sore spots.

As for the head massage, it didn't feel good — it was like forceful pressing without any relaxation. Not many people dare to press the head (from my experience), and I've heard professionals say the head is actually difficult to massage and is better left to someone truly certified to avoid injury. I still let him finish it at the time — I should have told him to stop.

Not much to say about the oil massage — it felt like oiling the body just to prepare for the body-slide; very casual. After putting on a lot of oil, he started the body-slide after only a few moves...

Customer service told me they're the founding shop in the south (I don't know about that), but since I personally don't like body-slide, it felt very ordinary and nothing special. People who have experienced body-slide should know it's basically like that — I don't think there are many other tricks to it.

As for sexual services, there were none at all (OOOOOO). My whole body was covered in oil so there was nothing to enjoy orally; only the basic OOO. I ejaculated; the therapist did not.

Final overall impression: the therapist wasn't my type — he was stylish but not handsome to me. I prefer a more mature or sunny type; he was more like a pretty-boy style, so it was just okay.

As for his body, it's like other comments said — different from the photos, not that lean and muscular; rather more bulky with flesh, probably from trying to build muscle. In short, I probably won't go back.
