No problem at all—happy to clarify! In the context of soapy massages and similar services in Thailand, "full service" generally refers to a range of services beyond a traditional massage. Here’s a breakdown of what you might encounter:
### **Full Service in Soapy Massage Venues:**
1. **Soapy Massage**: This is a type of massage where the therapist uses soap to create a slippery surface, allowing for a more thorough and smooth massage. It typically includes a soapy wash and a relaxing massage.
2. **Fishbowl Selection**: In many soapy massage parlors, especially those in entertainment districts like Bangkok’s Nana Plaza, you can choose your therapist from a fishbowl setup. This means you select a therapist based on their appearance and profile while enjoying a drink in a casual setting.
3. **Additional Services**:
- **Sensual or Erotic Touches**: Full service often includes a more sensual or erotic aspect compared to a standard massage. This can involve intimate touches or activities designed to enhance the experience.
- **Happy Ending**: This is a term used to describe a final part of the service where the massage may culminate in sexual stimulation or release. It’s important to note that this is a common expectation in many soapy massage establishments but varies by location and the specific venue.
- **Optional Extras**: Some venues offer additional services such as body-to-body massages, private rooms, or extra time with the therapist, which can influence the overall experience.
### **Cultural and Legal Context:**
- **Cultural Norms**: In Thailand, the soapy massage and similar services are part of a broader entertainment culture and are understood to include these additional elements.
- **Legal Considerations**: The legality of these services can vary by location. In Thailand, certain aspects of these services exist within a grey area of local regulations, and establishments might operate under specific local rules.
### **Comparison to Traditional Services:**
- **Traditional Massage**: Typically involves techniques for relaxation, pain relief, or therapy without any erotic or sensual elements. This type of service is focused solely on therapeutic benefits.
