The next category is massage. Not all massage places give punting services, just most of them. Massage spas, like the studios, have a plusher reception, but are usually decked out like a spa and description of services is non-specific (maintaining the 'spa' image) unless you ask. Prices vary from 50 Euros to over 100. 'Peiki', for instance, at 3rd September No.119, 4th Floor is €60 for '1hr'. Possibly the best value as it's a unique experience is Nuru Massage (nearest Metro Megaro Moussikis but taxi recommended). They have a main and a 2nd address so make sure you know which one. Book via their website. http://nurumassage.gr/ Two buckets of nuru gel used on a water bed and fairly expert 'tantra' massage. HE standard but not usually FS (officially emphatically no) unless the masseur initiates it, in which case there is no extra charge. Very professional setup.

Many massage places offer incredibly very good service though the masseuses are often not as young as in the brothels or studios. Unlike the brothels, which are multiplying, many studios and massage parlours are closing down, probably due to the economic climate. It may be well to check if they have a current website linked from bourdela.com and then look for a shift rota that is current. Whereas many brothels tend to be grouped in the same street, studios and massage joints may be isolated geographically except for those one or two near the brothels.
