you must be talking about the farang surcharge. it is common and different outlets have different policies on this. but they are normally 500 to 1,000 baht more than the normal prices. never heard or read anywhere that anyone being DOUBLE-charged at those outlets as the farang surcharge.

if you take a look at this list, the surcharges are stated upfront.

Bangkok massage parlors, Body Massage, Soapy Massage, Herbal Oil Massage, Traditional Massage

although the list are rather outdated now, I doubt the surcharges for farang are double now.
