I love coming to CityTouch. The space is very clean and relaxing. They really think of every little thing to make the experience a great one such as the face cradles being very comfortable, oil that doesn't leave you greasy, phone chargers and HEPA air purifiers in every room. The owner, Rob, is incredibly kind and caring about all of the clients. All the massages I've gotten here have been top notch, but Elisa is like a neck whisperer. She was able to melt away years of neck tension in a single session.

Great massages. It took me a few tries to find a masseuse I like in NYC that wasn't too expensive. I first tried Haven and was given a really weird experience that probably could have caused a muscle injury, so I'm very glad to have made an appointment with CityTouch for my second attempt. I've been going here since March 2020 and the quality is top-notch.

I loved this place!! Daria was so sweet and talented and really made me feel at ease (this was my first therapeutic massage). She clearly knew what she was doing, understood my problems (I work a desk job and have a lot of tension because of it), and gave me such an enjoyable/effective massage. Will definitely be back to see her!
Also, the place was a really relaxing environment all around and everyone was very nice.

This place is fantastic! The therapists are amazing, the ambiance is peaceful, spacious, relaxing, massage beds are heated (this is so key)... My office is a block and an avenue away in Chelsea and I have a job that is physically and emotionally taxing, so I was so happy when I found City Touch with their convenient online booking, reasonable prices (TIPS INCLUDED!), easy location, and of course wonderful massages. Highly recommend, take care of yourself first so you can keep taking care of the ones you love and sustain energy in pursuit of your passions.

Roxanne from City Touch was really amazing. She was generous with her knowledge and tips for continued wellness even after my appt. I appreciated Roxanne's humor, warmth, and openness to feedback.
I had scheduled a 2-hr massage, and I was having pretty intense tightness and pain in my legs, and I was pretty nervous about navigating the pain as well as being massaged for a such long amount of time, but honestly the time did fly by. Roxanne's precise attention to my spine and knots in my legs left me feeling so much better. It really HURT SO GOOD. Would definitely recommend.

I've been to CityTouch several times, and have received massages from Carla and Rob. Whether I'm going to relieve muscle tension or just for relaxation, the experience has been wonderful.
Most importantly, the massages are great. I always leave feeling like they've paid attention to what I write in my pre-appointment assessment, and are careful to provide the pressure and techniques that respond to my requests. Carla and Rob both checked in with me at points during the massage to see how it was feeling, and made sure I left with any further resources I needed -- stretches, etc..

My whole experience at CityTouch Massage Therapy was fantastic. The space is extremely clean, welcoming, professional, quiet and relaxing. Rob takes great care in making sure you are comfortable and enjoy your experience. I saw Carla and she was wonderful, while my massage was very calming, I also felt all the knots and tension were worked out. Carla's advice regarding stretching and carrying a backpack rather than a shoulder bag was also very helpful. I will definitely be back and have been recommending CityTouch to friends, thank-you again!

I had a 60-minute massage with Carla and with Marta.
Carla is great. She was thorough and attentive. She was also highly sensitive to my immediate needs and was very careful in the areas of extreme pain (my neck) and wonderfully persistent in the other areas that needed work and could take the extra pressure. Good balance is not easy to achieve but Carla managed it very well, with her calming energy, form touch and excellent bed-side manner, along with nice use of aromatherapy. I came to CityTouch 8 months after having a baby, with severe back pain and left feeling like I could finally straighten

I have been so impressed with CityTouch Massage. Their prices are reasonable, booking is incredibly easy, and they accept my health savings account card, which is so convenient. I've been seeing Carla for prenatal massages and can't recommend her enough. She takes the time to listen to me before we start our session, and tailors the massage to address my specific requests. My hips have been particularly tight throughout my pregnancy, and the only time I'm able to sleep well is after one of her massages! Above and beyond that - she actually remembers past massages and is able to let me know if certain

I was recommended to CityTouch Licensed Massage Therapy by another masseuse after the NYC Marathon. It was my first marathon and my legs felt very sore after the 26.2, but Rob knew exactly what to do!
I walked into a very clean and relaxing space and felt comfortable at once. Rob took his time to talk to me, learn what my pain points and concerns are, and really focus on those areas. After the massage (which went by way too quickly!) Rob debriefed with me and gave me exercises and tips for my recovery and followed up a few days later to see how I was feeling.
Given Rob's knowledge, genuine care
