Massage therapy is something important to my health and wellness routine and I regularly get massages. I'm lucky to say I've gotten hundreds and hundreds of massages - particularly in the places I lived (SF and NYC). Rachel is a top 10 for me. She knows her sh** and she's not just good at giving a massage, she's good at understanding what you need (and want). I asked her to work out the pickleball knots in my arms, shoulders back and she delivered. Thanks Rachel! I'll be back when I'm in town!

Oh Wow! I knew I had plans in Old Gretna yesterday so I looked to see if I could book a massage…read morebefore or after my lunch plans and if there was online booking. I stumbled across the Peppermint Room and saw the glowing Yelp reviews and immediately booked time with Luz. I booked a massage with face cleansing ritual. First the massage part... the room was large but also cozy. The electric fireplace was a really nice touch. Luz found all the knots... all of them. And worked through them with a firm but gentle touch. I knew my back was a mess but not how much of a mess until she started working on me. The cleansing ritual was not a typical facial... it was more like a face massage with a cleansing. I highly recommend this. I wasn't sure what to expect but I really enjoyed it. Again Luz was great! The location is a non-descript building which faces Lafayette St but the front door is actually on 18th St and their are reserved parking spots out front...love the painted parking spot detail. Loved the ability to book online and I was just charged a deposit on my total bill.

The Peppermint Room has very relaxing and inviting vibes, it also smelled amazing, the waiting room was really comfortable. The massage room was so calming and the table was so nice. The extra room for a pregnant belly and chest was awesome and it was also heated. The price was so reasonable especially considering the quality of service. They also offer so many types of services that I can't wait to try. Upon checking out, I booked an appointment for my husband and I feel like we'll probably end up getting a membership because I will definitely be back. Couldn't be happier with my first prenatal massage! Thank you again Miss Dee!

BEST MASSAGE IN NEW ORLEANS! I've been going to Tam at Well Body Studio for massages for 5 years…read morenow (Swedish, Therapeutic, and Prenatal), and I count my lucky stars every day that I found her. I cannot recommend her highly enough. I refer all my family and friends to her, and they continue to have nothing but glowing reviews. Here are some things I love about massages with Tam: 1.) Tam eases you into a massage. Instead of diving into the most painful knot or problem area first thing with full force, she reminds you to breathe and guides you toward a place of relaxation first so that your muscles are more primed to receive more focused pressure. I struggle with anxiety and cannot tell you how important it is that I feel relaxed and safe BEFORE i can enjoy or benefit from a massage. Tam knows how to do this. She is thorough, she is deliberate, and she takes her time so that you never feel that anything is being rushed. This allows you to actually relax and get the most out of the therapy. (She also gives very calm and clear guidance on what to do: when I need to roll over, or adjust my positioning, or what to do before the massage starts, or when it is over. This helps you relax further by limiting opportunities for confusion and awkwardness.) 2.) Tam is a magician with pressure. She is strong, but adapts her pressure based on the area of the body and the body's muscle response. She's always keenly attuned to me and how my body is responding, and i've never had to ask her to adjust her pressure. That said, she also verbally checks in with you to make sure that the pressure feels right and encourages you to speak up if anything needs to be changed or addressed. 3.) Tam doesn't talk through your massage. She lets you relax into your bliss and detach. That said, if you WANT to talk or have a question or concern, she is happy to engage in conversation. She lets you guide the talking piece. 4.) Tam is both confident and humble in her work. She is highly skilled, highly perceptive, does a thorough intake before the massage, and quickly makes you feel comfortable. And she ALSO listens to what you need and how your body/situation may be different. She adjusts based on your needs and is open to your thoughts. 5.) I feel SO rejuvenated after a massage with Tam. It's as if i've also been through a meditation, Reiki session, restorative yoga, deep stretch, and blissful sleep all at the same time. Don't waste your money at the fancy spas in town. Trust me, i've been to them all. Tam is the only massage therapist you'll ever need.

Thank you, Tam!! I woke up around 10am today and couldn't move my head or get up w/o excruciating…read morepain in my neck. Today is Sunday. I went on yelp to check out massage reviews and filtered it to what was open. Well Body Studio was 1 of 2 with good ratings to come up. I called both and left messages. Within 3 min, Tam called me back. The other never did. Amazingly, on a Sunday, she was able to get me in a few hours after I called and in time to get home for the Saints game. She did a great job. I needed super deep treatment and she really focused on the the 2 areas I told her were in pain. My issues aren't completely healed - I'm beyond an hour of work, but WOW... It's almost 12 hours later and I feel SO much better than I did this morning. I really didn't think I would find someone on a Sunday and I'm so lucky I did. THANK YOU!!!! I'll definitely be back. Oh yeah -1 extra bonus... great music. No cheesy spa flutes. Just some good ol jazz.

Not realizing how knotted up my body was when I came in, Renata was able to massage me, relax me, then educate me regarding my body & the stress I was carrying. I came in for a relaxing massage, but instead I got a massage & very helpful information regarding my body!!!! Talk about a bonanza!!! Additionally, Renata further aided in my relaxation process by providing the level of modesty (regarding my body) that made me comfortable. Not many times does a therapist that takes the time to inquire about your comfort level; whether your 1st or 100th time, this can be an issue. My hot stone massage wasn't long enough, as I didn't want her to stop. From the top to the bottom, there wasn't area that was untouched by her. She made sure all my muscles received a fair amount of stimulation and "unkinking"; as I was truly full of knots. I found the pricing to be fair & in-line with the cost of similar services at other locations. I am super ecstatic about Hands Of Essence & this will now be my go-to-massage salon.

Finding the location was a little tricky, since our GPS got us stuck in the library's parking lot. Don't go that way if your GPS tells you! Just look for the Napoleon Room, and the sigh for Hands of Essence is in the corner downstairs. Renata and Terrell answered all our questions that we did and didn't know to ask. They made us feel like comfortable and focused on the areas we pointed out to even. We can't wait to go back!

So to say that I've had at least a thousand massages is an understatement. Today I had a massage with Paul at Nola Bliss and I can honestly say it's one of the top massages I've ever had! When I was 22 I had mononucleosis which has led to Epstein-Barr. I told Paul that I needed a lymphatic massage and he did it and he did it phenomenally! For me, one of the best ever! If I lived in New Orleans I would be going to him at least once a month! I highly highly recommend Paul. Mary Molloy
