Asian Massage is another of the many massage parlors in Siem Reap. There are different types of massage shops in the city ranging from fly-by-night shacks to large spa complexes that operate around the clock. Asian Massage is one of the regular mainstream style shops that are fairly common. In fact these kinds of shops are so common that one can almost blend into another. Assuming there actually is any official name at all. That other Asian Massage is next to a money exchange and across the street from a grocer.
The place under review here is one block further north and across the street from a mall. But it neighbors other massage shops. Especially nowadays. The effects of the pandemic have driven the vast majority of massage parlors in Siem Reap out of business. Most massage shops sit empty.
Only a few have continued to operate the entire time. Asian Massage is one. Asian Massage is located on Sivutha Boulevard. The front of Asian Massage is like any other shop of the sort. The masseuses sit inside when waiting for customers. In the lobby there are rows of chair for foot massages. The body and oil massages take place in rooms upstairs. Like most massage parlors in Cambodia there is a climb up a dangerous and uneven flight of stairs to access the private rooms.
A one hour oil massage costs 10 US dollars at Asian Massage. This is pretty standard for the immediate area. There are other places that charge less like the aforementioned shacks and the previously reviewed Ka Ka Massage.
This is paid on the way out as is the norm. One thing does stand out about this shop and the others nearby. They offer four hand massage. Still it sounds more appealing than it actually is. This is no Cyrcee. Even women who do offer hand relief are unlikely to do it with another gal watching. The rooms are private with sliding doors. They are fairly small but big enough for the task at hand.
