Essential Kneads Massage Therapy

I found and decided on Essential Kneads because of the great reviews and the great pricing. And it did not disappoint!
I decided on a Swedish/​Therapeutic massage with aroma therapy by Jacque.
Jacque was friendly, professional, and courteous. I’ll be honest, at first, I was a little concerned that there would be too much talking during the massage (which I loathe), but it ended up being «just right» — there was enough chit-​chat to check in and see how I was doing (which I appreciated) and plenty of quiet time to just enjoy the services.
One of the great things about my time/​appointment was that Jacque took the time to answer my questions/​concerns and even showed me stretches I could do at home to help alleviate muscle strain and discomfort. Much appreciated!
I loved the Webster Groves location because it was a little closer to where I live. U City is a little farther, but I think it’ll be worth the trip! I’ll definitely be back!

Jacque is my regular therapist when I’m in town and she is top notch. Not only does she give a great massage, but she’s knowledgeable with regards to holistic health and offers good advice. Highly recommended.

Had a fantastic massage today. She gave good attention to areas where I needed some relief. I have only had one massage in my life (at a chain establishment) besides this one and I really feel that the therapist in this practice has more experience than those at MassageLux etc. I really felt comfortable and felt great afterwards. I would highly recommend.

Jacquelyn was amazing! I stumbled across her by accident, and a happy accident it was. After a long year of grad school, all I needed was to de stress and get the knots out of my body, and I got so much more. I felt like I was floating on air afterwards. Jacquelyn is personable and very skilled with her trade. I received the aromatherapy massage, which was heavenly. I think I have found my massage therapist.

I have been going to Jacque for several months now, and she is amazing. I highly recommend her to all of my friends, family and co-​workers. From the moment she touched my back, I knew I was going to get an awesome massage. I have never been disappointed, that is for sure! Also, Jacque’s location is great and there is always available parking (which is important to me).

Most Satisfying Massage I have ever had!!! I had a hot stone massage that was not over priced and extremly relaxing! I cant wait to schedule my next appointment!

I’ve always gotten massages in the past at spas or places like Massage Envy, so I didn’t know what to expect from a private practitioner. Jacque was perfect. I liked how she listened to me and focused mostly on the areas I really needed, but didn’t skimp when working on the other areas either. The office is warm and relaxing, and the warm pillows placed on my back and feet were a nice touch. Jacque made me feel really comfortable with the entire service. I will definitely go back to her.

I have had a lot of massages over the last ten years but this one took the cake! I work out a lot and have acquired a ton of knots in my shoulders and back because of it. Jacque (a.k.a. «Miss Magic Fingers») completely loosened them up in my first visit! Needless to say she is now turning into a weekly «must» on my list…

BEST MASSAGE EVER !! I have had what I feel is a fair share of massages in my day and thought I was really fancy when I got a Massage Envy membership back in the day … but the problem was I never found anyone (besides my aunt who lives in MI — not terribly relaxing to take an 8 hour drive to get a massage) who I felt was really good !!
YOu know — enough pressure to make you feel like you got a massage but not so much that you feel like you got hit by a truck (some dude at another place made me feel like I was gonna have broken bones)… Someone who can chat if you want but knows when you just want to drool into the headrest … and someone who is priced decently enough to allow you to go frequently enough to make a difference in the knots in your back the size of Mt Kilamanjaro.
Run. don’t walk to your phone to call or email or text her to schedule your next appointment. Your stressed out self will thank you for it !!!

I met Jacque Wright at Daisy Clover during one of the «Landshark Ladie’s Night» events. Every Thursday the store stays open a few hours later than usual, there’s Landshark beer served, appetizers, a makeup artist, manicures/​pedicures, as well as massages available for anyone who wants to come hang out and try on clothes. A girly good time for sure!
Jacque is the designated massage gal for Landshark Ladies night and she gave me a chair massage like no other! Anyone who knows me is aware of the fact that I *never* relax and as a result, my little body is tense 100% of the time. Jacque helped to get some of the deep kinks out of my neck and worked out the entire top left side of my back. She also suggested (in a non-​salesy way) that I should consider regular massages to keep myself feeling better. I wish!
If you’re not interested in going to Landshark Ladies Night (not sure why anyone wouldn’t but whatevs), Jacque has her own practice that you can visit. It’s in the Richmond Heights area and she does take appointments. Give her a call if you need some stress relief!
