massage parlour

Bodywork service location

A massage parlour is an establishment offering massage services.

The term often carries suggestive connotations, implying a front for prostitution or sexual services: The police raided several massage parlours suspected of trafficking.

Legitimate massage businesses typically call themselves spas, clinics, or therapy centers to avoid the association.

British spelling; American English uses parlor.
