Massage in Delhi

joe_dalton · Aug 7th, 2006, 05:03

Hi to all!

Can anybody help me?
You know what it's like. You have had a long flight. You just want to relax but you can't because of the noise of car horns and the general cackle. And then you think : "I know what I need. No hank panky - just a long slow relaxing massage."
And not paying top prices either.
Anyone experienced this in Delhi and if so how, what, when and where ?
And how much?

Thanks very much

Hello Joe. Welcome to IndiaMike.

Ask around at your hotel or where they sell ayurvedic oils, there are many good masseur's who freelance and come right to your hotel. Expect to pay about 200rps-300rps/hr. Make sure you do your due diligence and find the best you can - preferably through an knowledgeable/trusted referral.

My personal recommendation is the salon at the Imperial....
which has seperate facilities for women and men but a common reception area. It is called hairline.
The guys there give the best head massage and though it can be pretty hard it relaxes you beautifully afterwards.
Being a female myself I have only tried the women's body massages but I am sure the men's side has equally good services. It may be more expensive then others in Delhi but I can sure compared to International prices it is well worth it. Give the guy a good tip like rs 50/100 if he gives a good massage.
