Massage Will Be Required!

[Zbonnie]

Hey, Jenn, and any other New Orleanians: I know I'm gonna need a massage on the Monday after first weekend in order to help keep me going through the 2nd weekend. Any recommendations for a professional massage (*LEGIT!) in/near da quarters?

*For Curb Your Enthusiasm fans, maybe I wouldn't mind getting a "Happy Ending".;)

You no want Happy Ending??

I knew I shouldn't have mentioned a Happy Ending if I wanted to get a serious reply, LOL! Jenn, help me out here. I'm sure that in your line of work, you must know some massage therapists.

These places look to be legitmate, but I have no first hand knowledge of them.

Probably the best would be the Spa at the Ritz Carlton. Expensive, but why not.
You only go around once!

I've been to Belladonna. It's uptown on Magazine Street. Nice place, average price for massage $65-70/hr if I recall. I would recommend it if you can't find someplace closer to your hotel.

Thanks, folks, I've noted/printed your replies. I was/am particularly looking for the personal recommendations, and am still hoping that IBJamn might weigh in with someone she knows.
