Imperial Spa
First things first. I am comfortable being naked. When I go to the spa, I have absolutely no qualms about getting into and out of the tubs in the buff. Changing is no problem for me. Neither are showers. I'll sit in the steam room naked. I'll sit in the sauna naked. You get the picture. BUT, I always have my trusty little towel to cover me up through the hallways, etc.
At Imperial Spa you can expect to be NAKED NAKED. I cannot emphasize this enough. Saying that you need to be comfortable with nudity would be an understatement to most western women.
That would explain why this spa was filled with mostly asian women when I went there a few weeks ago. Expect to be in the buff the entire time. I used the tubs and then had the scrub/massage combo. And again, my experience with scrubs normally involves draping, the person holding up towels and not looking, etc. This is how most high end spas do it.
At Imperial you can expect to be scrubbed like a dog. The attendants flip you every which way as you lay on a plastic covered table. I cringed at one point because I knew the woman next to me could practically see me spread eagle if she wanted to. OH WELL! That's how it's done here. The massage component was a tad weird; I'd bet these women aren't licensed. BUT you're skin will be so ridiculously soft from the scrub and you won't care. My behind is as smooth as a baby's. Cheap and TOTALLY worth it! Just don't expect posh or any sense of "propriety" in the scrub room. You will be doused like a dog.
