美容, 按摩, 足底 – biyou, anma, sokutai
In Düsseldorf's Japanese quarter there are lots of little Japanese salons that offer different wellness treatments. That's a great way to learn couple of new words:
Here is one of the posters for one of such wellness place. I cropped the picture so that the address and telephone are not included, but the most important words are here:
- 美容 -- びよう-- beauty
美容院 --びよういん-- beauty parlour; beauty parlor; hairdressing salon
美容室 --びようしつ-- beauty parlour
- あん摩, 按摩 --あんま-- (n,vs) (1) massage, esp. the Anma Japanese type of massage; (n) (2) (sens) masseur; masseuse
按摩さん--あんまさん-- masseuse; masseur
- 足底筋 --そくていきん--Plantaris muscle
of what I gathered in google 足底 is often used for "foot"
