We’re excited to share that our NBC News segment is now featured in every taxi across New York City! A huge thank you to Lauren Pechwasser and Michelle W. Park for stopping by and showcasing the Aescape experience. #newyorkcity #nyc #wellness

Aescape in The New York Times! Lauretta C. Charlton just gets it: "I enjoy getting massages to help improve my sleep. But they can be expensive, and a quick alternative that doesn’t involve nudity appealed to me. I also wondered if I would feel more relaxed with a machine than a stranger. For instance: I love pressure, but when a masseuse asks me how the pressure is, I almost always say it’s great — not because it is, but because I don’t like talking to strangers while I’m nude and I’m too embarrassed to ask them to work harder." I love this line here: "Michael Bottrill, the president and chief executive of the Swedish Institute College of Health Sciences in Manhattan, said robots should be integrated into traditional massage practices as a way to help masseuses avoid burnout and injury."

Fox News Media's Kurt Knutsson asks a common question when it comes to Aescape: "Do these massage robots signal the end of human touch?" He also answered it: "For those who feel uncomfortable with human touch or simply prefer a more solitary relaxation experience, these automated systems offer a compelling alternative. You can unwind and de-stress without the potential awkwardness of small talk or concerns about personal boundaries." There are things that a great massage therapist can do that a machine will never replicate, but Aescape focuses on delivering a great restorative massage that's controlled by you and available on demand at a consistently accessible price point. #robotics #aescape
