Thai massage is unregulated here and anyone can setup shop. my wife who is Thai, is legit trained therapist at Wat Pho massage school in Bangkok, where it’s months of training (properly regulated there). My ex gf otoh is a quack. Missus had a look at her ‘certificates’ on her web page and said they’re garbage.. something you pay £200 for a day course. But they’re in Thai and look ‘official’ to any farang going in there. (if anyone knows Morley it’s one on the corner of queen street near Lime Street Bistro and the owner is such a truly repulsive money grubbing woman. There was a long post on a Morley FB group a while back slagging her off with one customer ending up in A&E after one of her ‘massages’ looking like a herd of elephants had trampled all over her back LOAL) | ||

Next session will be quite a low volume as bit of a deload Larsens went up easy despite being forced to use a crappy thin and rickety bench. On my preferred wider flat one I’m 5% stronger straight away as I feel much more secure on it. | ||
