In Costa Rica, "sala de masaje" is a euphemism for a casa where prostitutes work they are also called "pensions" - which in Europe is a type of bed and breakfast. Since prostitution is legal in Costa Rica but pimping and pandering is not, the girls work as 'independents' in the casa, paying for the room separately the casa provides the rooms and maybe a bar. Many "salas" offer "massage service". One Backpage ad under "Body Rubs" breaks it down as: All the Backpage ads are about the same except for the occasional escort that puts an ad in the Body Rubs section.
Craigslist under "Theraputic Services" has some that appear to be genuine massage therapists hand or breast relief not mentioned and then some cleverly worded ads - my favorite is "Thai Massage by Busty,Curvaceous Therapist" who says she is a "Certified Attractive Thai, Holistic and Swedish Blonde Masseuse" whose massages include "Kama Sutra".
And illustrates her ad with a picture of a woman in lingerie. And what's "Swedish Blonde" massage? Now, could you own a massage business? Non-residents can own businesses. Legally you can run the business, but not work in it. So you can't give massages but you could train or supervise. You'd need a Costa Rican accountant.
As to the Costa Rican people they are very friendly. However, a lot of Ticos see foreigners as rich people and are not adverse to separating them from their money as fast as possible in a friendly way so you have to keep your eyes open.
