Massages

Massages
Massages are a very popular past time among people living in Shanghai. Prices range from RMB 80-250 depending on the quality, location and length of the massage.

Bamboo Seven/Four Seasons offers the same services as higher priced places but is mere minutes from the Oriental Green Apartments, between Specialized Bike and Cheers. It is more basic, as far as the ambience, but is also cheaper. You can get a discount card which saves quite a lot of money. This is an indulgence that many of us participate in often!

There are more info of massage parlors are available on Shanghai Happy Massage. It is a massage review website which aims to offer the best massage info in Shanghai. Not only massage parlors, but also massage girls, massage boys and massage agencies are available. The info is updated regularly. Besides, reading and writing reviews are all allowed on Shanghai Happy Massage.

If you travel in China, be cautious of getting a massage in a Chinese hotel. The masseuse might offer you other "services", and many of those girls do not know how to give a proper massage.

You can also find really good and really cheap local massage parlors if you're not interested in the atmosphere. Great place to get to know locals. These will also offer things like acupuncture or the "hot globe treatment" which consists of having glass globes suction-cupped onto your back. It sounds terrible and leaves bruises, but it is sooooooo good for your muscles.
