Urban Escape Customized Massage Therapy - Urban escape - Massage Therapy Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

I had written a positive 4-star review for this business (more like 3 stars, but I wanted to help the business to get more customers). However, based on the owner's response below (*read her response below*), I will change my review to 1 star. The owner needs to accept constructive feedback and to not respond with inaccurate statements (e.g., "chip on your shoulder," "overbearing," "angry," "special needs," etc.). The communication and customer service need to improve. read more

I had Jessica massage me! Jessica is the best masseuse out there. She described to me that the pain I'm feeling in my body is never just caused by that area alone but by a greater cause. Jessica got to the root of my pain and massaged me with detail. her intentionally is one of a kind. Thank you Jessica! read more

I'm a massage aficionado. I've done it all. Seriously: deep tissue, lomi lomi, swedish, esalen, myofascial release, craniosacral, lymphatic, thai, ashiatsu, and more. And I spend $$$$-$$$$$ a year on massages & other body work, including physio therapy, because I'm a broken former dancer with hyper-mobility spectrum disorder. Read: I have chronic pain & muscle tightness. I bought a package here after my first massage, because it was that good. Helped my sleep tremendously. This is not your typical massage. Leave your expectations behind. The consult is thorough and she's a perfectionist. Her set up is better than anything I tried in Austin, Las Vegas, Tampa, Miami, etc etc. This massage is an experience & true escape. And not an in and out quick one. Schedule plenty of time, expect to be massage drunk after & like most places in Pittsburgh, get there early enough to find parking. read more

Jessica is hands down the best masseuse that I have ever experienced!! Jessica is very meticulous and takes the time to understand what each of her clients need. Based on your issues, she customizes a massage to best meet your needs. I absolutely love the biomat. As soon as I hit the mat, I am ready to relax. Jessica gives you time to wind down and get settled prior to starting the massage. She creates a very calm and therapeutic environment for you to unwind. Most of all, Jessica is an extremely nice and caring person! She makes you feel at ease the moment enter. Her main goal is to make sure you leave feeling much better than you entered. I highly recommend Urban Escape!! read more

Short review: if you're looking to include massage as part of your overall wellness this is the place for you. If you're looking for a one time quick massage to just relax this might not be the best option. Long review: upon your initial appointment you will have a consultation to discuss any health issues, pressure preferences etc. After you will have some time to get on the table and relax w the biomat before the massage begins. Jessica will work with your schedule if you need out quicker but I'd recommend rescheduling if you're short on time, it's worth it! Also, the website has a lot of good guidance around your appointment like timing, considerations and parking passes (I suggest reading this information, it will help you understand Jessica's methods and if this massage is right for you.) I also emailed Jessica beforehand to ensure she was familiar w an issue I was having. She responded quickly and we discussed the issue and it was clear she did some additional research to address the issue which I appreciated tremendously. Jessica is very personable and a great massage therapist. If you are looking to add massage as part of your overall well being I highly recommend her services. read more

Jessica's massages are beyond 5 stars! I recently had a treatment with the biomat, which had crystals, infrared, sound, etc. I was pretty stressed out when I came in (like many these days) & I felt so calm, my back aches had subsided, & I slept so well! I've also had many of her myofascial massages & they are incredible. I've recommended Jessica to many professionals athletes & also actors that come to town on movie projects, because she is that good. She's professional & Urban Escape is extremely clean & inviting. I will continue recommending people to her for her first class services. read more

Somebody else scheduled this massage as a gift to me, so going in I was expecting the same sort of massage I've received in the past. I was pleasantly surprised with the outcome - Jessica listened carefully to me throughout the consultation and took over 2 hours to carefully work at solving my various pain-related issues. I instantly felt like I had a much bigger range of motion, and in the following days had notably less muscle pain. Much different and much better than any massage I've had before. I will definitely be going back! read more

As an electrician, my body feels like it really takes a beating some days. Whether it's a day of crawling around in tight spaces, or a day of constantly staring up and working with my hands above my head, my back and neck always feel the consequences. I can truly say that when my back and neck start acting up, going to Jessica is the first thing that comes to my mind. Like others have said, Jessica really pays attention to your personal needs. Going to her is more like therapy rather than going for a typical massage. She is great at finding the spots that are giving you the most aggravation, and puts all of her energy and focus into helping you feel better.

First off I travel over two hours to see Jessica. I am a very active person that does CrossFit, weightlifting and running so my body really needs work. Jessica is a true healer with a great understanding of the human body. She is highly skilled and very focused on figuring out what is best for you during your visit. After my massage my range of motion is better and all my muscle tension is gone. If you want to sip hot tea, get your nails done and have a mediocre Swedish massage, go to the spa; if you are in need of actual bodywork and want results, go see Jessica! read more

I would highly recommend Urban Escape. Jessica is truly the best. She does a thorough initial evaluation to customize a comprehensive massage therapy plan. With every session, she asks whether are any new problem areas and insures those concerns are addressed. I have been a regular customer for years. read more

Without a doubt the most thorough and professional massage in Pittsburgh. I play rugby, swim, practice yoga, lift weights, and rock climb every week. I had basically accepted that back pain would be part of my life. After one visit to Jessica I changed my mind. Having worked on Steelers and executives for 20+ years, she not only knows what she is doing, but does it extremely well and with the highest degree of passion and professionalism. I was pleasantly surprised by the thoroughness of our consultation beforehand. She literally tailors your therapy to your needs in a way that is uncommon in this industry. I would argue that, if anything, her treatments are underpriced for what you receive. Ultimately, if you are looking for a professional who knows human anatomy and musculature inside and out, a massage therapist who can hold a conversation on any subject, and an incredibly relaxing atmosphere in which to experience nothing short of euphoria, I wholeheartedly recommend a couple of hours with Jessica Proia. read more

Jessica is fabulous. From the first time I went, she seemed to know my body and its problems better than I did. She spends as much time as needed to work out all the kinks and aches, whether it takes 1 1/2 hours or 3 hours, and for no extra charge. She has full command of all techniques, from gentle massage to stretching to firm pressure. My time under her care is some of the most peaceful pleasant restorative hours of my month. read more
