Results & Rankings

NB: In case of a tie, Overall Client Experience is the determining criterion. Score is per massage, rank is per score. 4- and 8-hand massages get one score. In some cases only the top results are listed, to respect participants’ confidentiality. Rankings and scores that do not appear can be requested.
