They have names like Ecstasy Unlimited, the Velvet Touch and This Is Heaven. They are in business mostly as "massage parlors," but when police try to shut them down, they squirm into some new designation-rap parlors, escort services, schools of sexual technique, nude encounter groups and even nude weight-lifting centers...
More than most businesses, massage parlors are constantly adjusting to new -and unusual-market conditions.

"I have no inhibitions," says Beccarie, a shapely brunette whose preferences include bisexuality and gourmet cooking in the nude. (Neighbors stop by frequently to borrow sugar.)
