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 cometo 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.

I highly recommend Urban Escape. Jessica does a thorough initial evaluation and then a customized massage based on individual needs. My massage included deep tissue, myofascial release, stretching, etc. I return monthly for the physical and mental health benefits.

I would highly recommend Urban Escape. Jessica is truly the best. She does a thorough initial evaluation to customize a 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.

I have been going to Jessica at Urban Escape regularly for over 5 years now. I am so thankful to have found Jessica. I live with a chronic illness and her customized massage is part of my therapy plan. Jessica is professional, takes pride in her work, and listens to your unique needs. She was great when I was pregnant with my son 4 years ago, making suggestions to adjust to my body’s different needs. I feel each session she always has new ideas or things to try. Most recently I was having pain in my abdomen, and she told me she could work that area. It made such a world of difference! Jessica is a healer, I am so grateful to have found her!

I am a half marathon runner and like getting massages to help stretch and relax my muscles after races. My chiropractor recommended me to Urban Escape and I have gone several times for a massage. It’s the best in Pittsburgh! Jessica really takes the time to get to know her clients and consults with me before every appointment to understand my needs and what areas are bothering me most on that day. She delivers a truly customized massage and I always leave feeling like a new person! I would recommend Urban Escape and Jessica to anyone.

I have been going to Jessica once a month for several years. In the past, I have been to numerous massage therapists and Jessica is the best hands down! She is very thoroughand very knowledgeable about the body. Her sessions are extremely therapeutic. Jessica now offers sessions with the biomat. Definitely a plus up! Anyone looking for someone who is truly focused on healing, restoration and self care I highly recommend Jessica.

First of all, I have had many different massages in several different states. Being a runner and weightlifter who does Crossfit fives times a week my body needs work. This was by far the best massage I have ever received. I love the way Jessica takes the time to get to know your problems so she can determine the best approach during your massage. Jessica is a healer with a great understanding of how the human body works and I will definitely be back!

I have been a client of Jessicas for two years and she is by far the best massage therapist Ive encountered in the 10+ years Ive been using bodywork. At my first appointment, Jessica spent time getting to know me and my needs and I knew right away that she was a serious professional, extremely intelligent when it came to anatomy and physiology, and approached massage therapy with a focus on the individual. She made me feel confident that she would be able to make assessments as she worked on my body and customize her technique as needed. This has been my experience with each subsequent visit.Jessicas massage skills are above and beyond the skill set of the average therapist. She incorporates passive relaxation, stretching, and craniosacral work alongside traditional deep tissue massage and it all feels wonderful. I always leave her studio feeling very soothed and grounded and like Im a few inches taller--which is a testament to her incredible ability to relax my tight shoulders and neck.I also appreciate that Jessicas approach is to take as much time as she needs to provide the high level of service that is her signature. At other massage therapists I have felt rushed, but this is never the case with Urban Escape. Her massage room smells great and the space is beautiful, peaceful, and clean. She provides a bathroom and shower for clients and so many other thoughtful products one may need to freshen up before or after. She lets you choose your own soundscape for the session, which is just another example of how she makes this experience about you.I highly recommend Jessica as a massage therapist!

Jessica is truly a good heart and kind soul. An ideal therapist to receive work from. Her sessions are completely integrative and her knowledge of the body is thorough. Her studio has so many thoughtful touches (amenities in the bathroom, drawers for your belongings, and cold water upon arrival.) I highly suggest Jessica and Urban Escape for individuals looking for a therapeutic and restorative session.

The most important thing to know about Urban Escape is that Jessica will customize the massage to your needs. This is not a generic massage. Your appointment will begin with a consultation so that Jessica understands your needs and what areas need to be worked.The massages are not just relaxing, but helpful. In my line of work I sit at a desk all day staring at a computer. My neck and shoulders are frequently stiff and sore. Jessica pays special attention to these areas and relieves the tension for me.I have had several massages at Urban Escape and I am a very happy with the services I have received. I always leave here feeling better and refreshed. Jessica is a very talented massage therapist and Im sure youll leave Urban Escape feeling great.

Discovering Urban Escape has been a game changer. Jessica has a totally unique method that works on a holistic level. She doesnt give superficial massages, instead honing in on problem areas until she perceives they are on their way to being healed. Because of this, it may take more than one session but you will feel more aligned, develop better posture and begin to overcome chronic pains. I have been going to Jessica for almost a year and I cannot recommend Urban Escape any higher.

My wife and I regularly utilize massage as a compliment to intense exercise routine. Ive used over a dozen different establishments in Pittsburgh, including multiple very expensive spas. Jessica is on another planet in terms of intuitiveness, productivity, and talent. In my opinion there is a massive chasm separating Jessica from the rest. Also, she is very reasonably priced and amazingly still accessible. We both eagerly look forward to our monthly appointments with Jessica.

I had a great massage with Jessica Proia. I went in with a lot of stress tension and came out feeling so much better! The atmosphere was clean and inviting, she listened to my preferences, and was very professional. What a nice break for my body and mind!

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 be 1 ½ 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.

LOVED my massage from Jessica. I felt like she knew exactly where my pain was and was able to actually fix it. There were knots I didn’t even know I had. The place is very clean and professional. I’ve already made my next appointment and I’m really looking forward to it.

Review №22

I was initially drawn to Urban Escape after reading on the website that there is a no-talking policy during the massage, because I have always preferred to relax over making small talk/giving feeedback. Jess is friendly, professional, and listens to my concerns. Most importantly, I feel the results in my daily life and not just during the massage. I’ll definitely continue going back.

Jessica is fantastic! I have been getting massages for 15 years and consider myself a massage snob; Jessica is by far the best masseuse Ive ever been to. She listens to what you want, is very knowledgeable, strong and is extremely consistent. I cant wait to go back!

Jessicas massages are above and beyond any massage experience Ive ever had... Great atmosphere, great energy, it smells wonderful, and everything is clean! Every time I walk out of a session, I feel like my feet are floating above the ground.

Review №25

Having a massage by Jessica is a truly amazing experience. I first met Jessica while in physical therapy due to a bicycle accident that caused a severe break to my left ankle. Jessica is the most professional masseuse that I have ever met. She takes time to talk to you and determine where you think your problems areas exist. It is hard to find words to explain the amount of time she spends with you and her knowledge of the human body. After my first massage I was hooked; too bad I was leaving Pittsburgh in a couple of months. I went back on at least a weekly basis until the move and return every time I come to Pittsburgh. I highly recommend Jessica, you will walk out feeling like a new person.

When I found out my insurance did not cover her practice, Jessica took the time to recommend a place that had what I was looking for that may take my insurance, rather than trying to rope me into paying out of pocket. Very respectful, professional move.
