Raspberry Spa is one of the many erotic massage parlors in Chiang Mai that is more or less unknown by tourists but popular among locals and locally based foreigners. It is similar in style and operation to other adult massage shops in the city like the previously reviewed Absolute Paradise.
Yet they abound in Chiang Mai. There are actually several places of this type in the city. While Chiang Mai only has a few go go bars the city is home to many massage parlors. Raspberry Spa is located in a rather large house just off of the so-called Super Highway near the Bangkok Hospital. While walk ins are certainly accepted I imagine that most people book ahead or at least announce their intentions of visiting by contacting the shop over the phone.
They man a phone number but in this day and age the Line App is a lot more popular as a method of quick and easy communication. It also allows for translation between languages which is probably a big help for the staff. When customers arrive they are presented with a lineup of the available women. There are usually no more than a handful of women working and they tend to be average in terms of looks. Raspberry claims to have some television actresses, models and even a porn star on staff from time to time but they do not seem to appear in the regular lineup so perhaps they require advance booking or something similar.
Each lady is called Angel with some other word following that. This naming convention is unique to Raspberry Spa. The women who are available are organized into different groups supposedly based around their looks.
For these prices customers will be taken to large private bedrooms, then showered in a communal washroom, then taken back to their temporary quarters for a nude gel covered body massage followed by a handjob. The sessions are supposed to last over an hour but customers who finish early might find themselves in a room with a naked lady and not much to do.
