    Massage at Shenzhen

    I need back and foot massage for pain relieve and relaxation. Anyone knows a good place for massage at Shenzhen? What is the price per hour? Is tip included in the price?
    How much do you tip for a 1 hour or 2 hours massage service?

    Why Shenzhen?

    Plenty of good cheap massage places in hk

    Tip is 10% of the charge for the massage

    If in SZ, they will also ask you for more than that. And can be fairly aggressive with that too at some of those spas.

    According to some postings in this forum, the price in HK is >$100 an hour. In Shenzhen, it is <$50. But some massage places in Shenzhen add a certain amount of mandatory tip to the price. I'd avoid such places.

    Yes, I have done it many times on Fridays after work w my wife, it's a short gateway, you get there, have a good meal, get to a message, stay over and come back next day. We did it many times in our late twenties early 30ies.
    No issue with immigration, it's just a matter of where and what time you cross the border.

    But it is way more than 50hkd has written above, we used to pay around 180hkd per 1.5 hours plus tip, used to get a 3hs one so the bill with the mean was about 1k for the Friday night plus Saturday morning. Just to get a bit out of HK and relax a bit.

    Sure you can get in Hk too, I am we'll aware of this, we go too. Just nice to change sometimes.

    I live at Sheung Shui. It is only one MTR stop from Lu Wu.
