Rainbow Spa

I have come to the conclusion that Rainbow Spa is not a good name for a massage parlour.

The name has already been used before at 1315 Lawrence and 266 Adelaide where Luna Spa now stands.

The brightful colours of a rainbow do not suit massage parlours. Unicorns and pots of Gold do not make men come to get an exotic massage.

The link to homosexuality doesn't help. Gays have been using the rainbow flag for years. Getting caught at Rainbow Spa by the wife is a certain end to many marriages.

Scarborough Massage

Exotic Massage in Scarborough has developed independently from the other parts of Toronto. It has always had it own providers and distinct customer base.

Failure of Bodyrubs

Several bodyrubs have opened in Scarborough over the last decade and each has failed.

Elite Spa

Elite Spa on SilverStar has been a bodyrub for over ten years. It has never gained enough momementum to operate like a typical bodyrub parlour (think Sunshine Spa or Pickering Angels). They tried to get permission to expand but were denied by the city. The tried to move to Sheppard and Allen but were denied by the city.

Scarborough Clinique

A massage parlour near the Kennedy subway station gained bodyrub status aroound 2000. A few years later they sold it because it wasnt very advantageous. Unless you are large, the benefits aren't very signicant.

Sun Valley 2000

There was a bodyrub parlour on Kingston Road in the mid 2000s. It wasn't very busy and sold its license to Studio 409.

Asian Massage

Asian massage has been popular in Scarborough for decades. There are hundreds of Asian massage parlors in Scarborough now.

Alisa Spa

Alissa spa is a new massage parlour that opened in 2012. It is on two levels with the massage rooms and the table shower in the basement. The parlour is in a very cute and busy Chinese plaza next to an ols age home. It was formerly known as Crystal Spa.

Pacific Spa

Pacific Spa is a very interesting massage parlor. In one room they have loads of cameras and electronic equipment. Vincent has a girl checking on all his spa from the control centre. Pacfic spa has had many attractive girls and quite a few good reviews over the years. The massage parlour is sometimes called "Spa Pacific" but this is incorrect. The "Spa Pacific" name was derived from the domain name which was selected because it was the closest domain to Pacific Spa.com available.

Holistic Massage

Scarborough is the home of 150 Holistic Spas the most of any borough of Greater Toronto. Of these 150, 90% are Chinese. There are a few Russian spas in North Scarborough for some reason. It may simple be that the rent was cheap. Scarborough has just one body rub parlour: Elite on SilverStar.

East Beaver Creek

When East Beaver Creek losts its massage parlours, it had a ripple effect on the entire city. Half of the girls moved south to Scarborough and many set up shop in the apartments inside Bamburg Cirle.

Old Bodyrub Massage Parlours

Its easy to forget the old bodyrub parlours especially if they were medicore.

4630 Kingston Road #8 was called Sun Valley Massage and is now Headlines Hair Design. They sold their bodyrub license to Angela of Crave Spa.

A & R was on Dundas St W and in 2011 moved into a house on Keele Street.

Coral Spa was on the Queensway and featured many polish ladies as well as a dark girl named Roma.

T & T was on the Queensway and featured many eastern European girls as well as a famouss one named Michelle.

Invisible Touch was on Wilmot Street in Richmond Hill in the Eat Beaver Creek area.

Asian palace was on Leslie Street in Richmond Hill in the Eat Beaver Creek area and became Platinum Spa on Sheppard Ave W.

Starlite Spa is at 2365 Finch W #209 and switched to a holistic after it sold its license to Palladium Spa.
