[@19Interpol91]

The confidence to go to a shop where you can’t speak the language and still be able to get a service and record at the same time. Huge props man 👊 Thank you for the content

[@MartinHervy]

Thanks! Communication really was a challenge haha but the guy (owner with his wife living in the back) was super nice!

[@washuneluvhada7616]

Key English words and hand gestures make those challenges fairly passable nowadays... Literally everywhere.... 😂

[@asimmusabah4580]

It's cool for me to address to people whe don't speak the same language and it's relaxing they try to understand you not like the one you speak the same language

[@me2609]

Shut up

[@uli11]

While the pressure is intense, chinese massage is second to none in terms of true long-term pain relief. Just keep in mind these massages are extremely intense and can be very painful. Props to you Martin for trusting him, despite the language barrier!

[@grandisbooks9698]

I used to get 45 minute Chinese massage in Chinatown in NYC. The style has elements of qui gong/deep tisue. It would take me over a week to recover and I felt like I was beat up for a few days after. After finishing up I would feel like I was walking on a cloud back up to SOHO.

[@MartinHervy]

A week?! Damn this one was harsh but not THAT harsh haha

[@lukash.6551]

By far the best and exciting massage this year! Really good job and pleasure to watch without skipping

[@MartinHervy]

For me too. Had very few clues about what would happen!

[@MrAnubis50]

I loved this massage room. I wanted to live there, too. The stairs that lead to the bed, kitchen, beautiful, comfortable pillows. The professional Chinese therapist.

[@salt54188]

虽然我去过很多足疗店，但是感觉这个师傅挺棒的，他的很多手法甚至超过专业搞按摩的，而且这个价格非常便宜

[@geoffotaylor2276]

Watching both channels, you have travelled to more countries in the last six months than most people in their lifetime. Unbelievable work Martin, thanks mate.

[@MartinHervy]

It was a lot! And I had more planned for the summer...until I fractured my ankle. Now stranded for 3 months 😮‍💨

[@geoffotaylor2276]

@@MartinHervy did you do that filming your 3rd channel. It's unbelievable what you upload Martin and all the videos are brilliant. Good luck with your ankle, it must be a bad break to be out for 3 months

[@Check258]

Idk how you manage to travel so much and find all these wonderful people but you must be enjoying it! Greetings from USA

[@adynk2457]

Great session bro....this should actually be on the main channel

[@MartinHervy]

I hesitated! But I felt the sound quality was not there :/

[@Charles.augi08]

Why using two channels bro ?

[@CupidCrux]

Why is this so insanely relaxing to watch lol I love it ❤😂

[@TanerG77]

I like their techinque of cutting the nails with the blade, is unique, that is incredible, they are so skilful and the job they do is such a great job, like high quality job, wish I had such a treatment, I would have felt totally pampered. I don't know how he managed to put fire on that salt but the salt scrubbing was incredible, and the massage made with its knee on your back was amazing, never seen such a techinique, that Chinese guy is a real professionist

[@MartinHervy]

The blade nail cutting is definitely.... different! Not sure it's the most appropriate tool but I was surprised to see how easy it was for him!

[@vikasc89581]

​​@@MartinHervy how much did the Massage cost for that long minutes . pls do tell, it will be helpful.

[@brocl7367]

about 15～20 dollars。but，foreigner should be more expensive~​😊@@vikasc89581

[@henchgamer6996]

Would love to get one of these

[@user-wo9rc3vw8i]

this man is a master ofvhis trade

[@HellafunasFanky]

Damn that backrub looks sooo good

[@MartinHervy]

It was! But it was very, very, strong pressure! 😁

[@angelica-travelinfluencer6289]

Chinese massage is no joke, its to Do good , not to Feel good ❤❤

[@MartinHervy]

Haha exactly. It's a couple of hours later you reap the real benefits

[@parsaghiyasi1453]

Good jobbb🎉

[@Nazragath]

Yaay, your beard grew back! Last video i saw from you, it was shaved. In my opinion, having a beard suits you well.

[@user-uf6vu9xc7l]

Интересный массаж. Необычный . Но прорабатывать все группы мышц. Здорово.😊

[@Aesir5]

Quality massage

[@krisp.1593]

I really hope you tipped this gentleman very very well- done a good job by you

[@MartinHervy]

For once I remember cause I was surprised. I gave him 100rmb (so the price of the massage) and he refused for a good 5 min! I could tell it's not usual to tip there

[@Vincy6880]

I like This Massage❤❤❤

[@parsaghiyasi1453]

Wowww

[@JohnnyLawrence293]

how many vids did you film in china? i like these kinda massages the best personally

[@MartinHervy]

I think 4 or 5. So definitely a couple more to be posted

[@addisonmitchell2019]

The feet were cool! Never seen it done like that.

[@Errand_Lad67]

When the scooter came,I thought guys would load Martin inside.😁😉 Expression of you face says that was painful. But Martin you should know as well,No pain- no game.👍

[@MartinHervy]

No pain. No game. 😁

[@JDCOLA]

Martin my boy, long time no see, your looking great, hope you are loving the east, looks phenomenal, I still hope one day to cross paths with you isnifffarts

[@MartinHervy]

Keep on sniffing mate 💪🏻

[@eroldeyan2280]

Süper masaj

[@the_entertainment_channel]

What's that floating around on top of the water?

[@MartinHervy]

Some sort of herbs

[@damienc5493]

Enjoyed this video. Very relaxing. I would get this massage if I go there. And 15usd is so cheap

[@MartinHervy]

It's a thing to do when visiting China for sure!

[@helenp7540]

this was harsh!!!! I hope you are fine after this massage!!! hahaha!!!

[@MartinHervy]

Definitely was very strong pressure! You can see I'm sweating a bunch 😂

[@davidkingproductions]

This looks amazing. No neck crack?

[@MartinHervy]

Nope! Only back and vertebrae in here sir!

[@imthearif]

I don't know this guy have two channel

[@MartinHervy]

Yup. This one will have more noisy/less relaxing services

[@sanny27]

you probably now have a whole new fan community of feet lovers 😀

[@MartinHervy]

😅

[@yimveerasak3543]

Hot salt massage really caught my attention. Thanks Martim

[@Charles.augi08]

Why use two channels. I dont get it

[@MartinHervy]

One will focus solely on quiet intended ASMR. This channel will have all sorts of services, including noisy and with talking.

[@Charles.augi08]

Got it

[@WingsOfADream1]

helps if ur more fit than the guy giving the massage, its a universal constant I don't make the rules.

[@user-pj1dx6eg7y]

Next fire massage in Thailand and hammer massage

[@MartinHervy]

I missed both! I'll have to go back

[@stephaniepaola2729]

🇧🇷

[@josephdoiron8376]

It's the same routine as in Jason rupps Wuhan massage video. I almost thought it was that shop.even laid out the same

[@Ailasor]

when someone makes a universal language app. traveling is gonna be much nicer =).. im way to embaressed to stand doing hand gestures and talking my 3rd language to someone who doesnt understand a single word im saying.

[@MartinHervy]

It is fun though :p

[@joebust779]

Looks pretty horrendous. LOL. I commend your sacrifice for content.

[@MartinHervy]

No it was good! Just on the harsher side 😁

[@user-wp8pl7jr3z]

This price is completely illegal. Normal 70-80 RMB includes salt foot washing or foot cupping. And the massage time at this price is less than that of small shops in the same industry.

[@MartinHervy]

You don't know the massage time... I paid the same price (80-100 RMB) in the other shops I went to. Including a franchise shop that had multiple outlets.

[@user-hl1ie2yp5t]

最近来中国的老外好多呀😂

[@akeanchia878]

可不是吗😂 都是来体验按摩的

[@ruekigyuiers90hjsil1ls3]

Black feet to white feet lmao

[@sarut5836]

อยากให้ทำซับไทยครับ เป็นคนอ่านภาษาอังกฤษไม่เก่ง

[@dalemiller5893]

No speak your a language just give big money 😂

[@cat19david]

Generous tip?

[@MartinHervy]

Generous tip.

[@davidtomkins4242]

Masseur is so bored he’s spending more time looking out of the window than concentrating on his client

[@MartinHervy]

You have to realise he does this every day dozens of times, all year long. So long as the treatment is good, I don't care where he looks 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Ruben-oz3qv]

And they dont have to be on top of you like you are their only reason to live to get a good service, id like it better that way no bullshit no chit chat that i dont care

[@ON-il2sq]

@@MartinHervy i agree and to me it also meant he had a tremendous amount of experience. If he needed to look at you continually, like during the pedicure, he did so. I like his demeanor. Thank you for a great video.

[@walalang4387]

I think his not comfortable, cuz it has a camera, that's why he always look at the window

[@MartinHervy]

Yes, very much possible

[@AnimusZen]

Masseusse was not into it. Went through the motions, but had not passion.

[@Princesswag]

I know this comment is 2 weeks old but every time I see comments like this I just wonder what exactly do you want the masseuse to be doing while giving a massage. Do you want them to smile the whole time ? If he did I would think he’s a complete nut case. He’s working it’s his resting face.
