I’ve been seeing Jake@essentialbody.work for years at this point, and despite irregularities due to set backs he has had in life, he still maintains a wonderful touch, gives a great massage, and remains intuitive and skilled with delivering a rock solid massage every time. Thanks again Jake, this review was long overdue!

I used to shy away from trying new masseurs on this site and then I met Jake. I took a chance on him and was so glad I did!
Many massage experiences can leave you unhappy or unsatisfied on so many levels. Jake took care of all my aches and pains and made pleasant conversation and offered more so much more then other therapists. He offered a way to connect and let go of the day in the most relaxing way where for a moment it all fades and you are left feeling relaxed, restored, and renewed.
The massage is great, yes, but the experience is so much more. Its very difficult to put into words. Definitely don't leave town without trying to see Jake at least once! You'll surely be glad you did; I can promise you that!

I came wondering what I might find behind door number one and a bit hesitant at first too, I’m so glad I followed through with it because I realized after how much I needed the massage that I got from Jake. From beginning to end it was amazing and he got rid of every issue even the ones I didn’t know I had. Definitely recommend him to anyone who really needs a good massage.

Jake was wonderful. His level of expertise is unique to him in regards to his massage skills. He was able to have me completely restored. I’ve never experienced anything like it. You should definitely go to see him at least once. He didn’t worry about time and let me know from the beginning I would need more time then slotted and he wasn’t willing to let me leave without completely restoring me. I truly appreciate that about him and yes he is usually late but he does let you know in advance and promises one of the best massages each and every time and I believe him. Go to see him you won’t regret the decision. Cheers!

Jake was exceptional, he took care of all my aches and pains, even offered to remove an old scar that I’ve had from a previous surgery and I was shocked at how well it all turned out when he suggested he could in fact remove it. For the first time I was able to feel comfortable with it. I would highly suggest him to anyone really needing a serious massage. Thanks Jake.

Jake was wonderful, his skills are unmatched. Jake uses deep pressure and a unique technique that works. I was very satisfied with the massage.

Jake gives a strong and attentive massage. His skills as a masseur are unmatched. His strong hands and firm touch are perfect for getting to the center of any issue. He listens to his clients and is excellent and providing a proper blend of a relaxing and therapeutic massage. I highly recommend Jake for your next massage experience.

Jake was prompt in responding to my massage inquiry, he got me in on short notice and took care of my aches and pains. I had shoulder and back issues that were impeding my work life and Jake found them and fixed them with ease. His studio was quiet, clean, and filled with a sweet aroma. The product he uses for bodywork left my skin feeling smooth and had no smell which is preferred. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for both Therapeutic relief and general relaxation. It is the best gift you can give yourself if you are in pain or in need of a mental escape.

Jake has strong hands and an interesting technique, he is polite and courteous and worked out all the kinks. I would definitely recommend the 90 min massage!

All I can say is WOW! It’s been getting more and more difficult to find reliable, strong, personable, and effective masseurs - but Jake is absolutely that. I booked him on a whim but this massage was everything that I needed. I left feeling relaxed and the knots in my lower back had entirely disappeared. He’s a very friendly guy and I enjoyed my time with Jake very much. If he is in your city, you definitely need to take advantage of the opportunity and book an appointment with him.

Scheduling a session with Jake was very fast and easy. When we began the session, he asked if I had any specific areas that I needed extra work on. Jake had a very nice table and made sure that I was comfortable and relaxed. Jake used both strong and gentle pressure depending on the areas and what I told him I needed. He gave attention to all the areas that needed it and I felt incredibly relaxed and healed after our session. I will continue seeing Jake as long as he is in town. Overall, it was a 5-star massage and I would recommend Jake to any friend that was looking for an amazing massage session with a strong and friendly masseur. Thanks Jake - I'll be back!

All I can say is thank goodness I found Jake. Jake's massage skills are exceptional - I have tried about 3 different massage places around town and then found Jake when I gave up on getting any relief from my sore shoulders and back. His hands are very strong and the conversation was delightful. Jake is a true master at his work and cares about his clients. I've actually seen Jake twice now, and he will continue to be my first choice for massage! I know he travels a lot, so if Jake is in your town I highly recommend you take advantage of the opportunity to have a fully relaxing and relieving massage with a friendly, easygoing and enjoyable guy. Thanks so much Jake.

I am so grateful I found Jake. For weeks I have had a knot in my back and in my calf, and no one has been able to help me. When I saw he was visiting my area, I decided to give him a try. Communication was a breeze, and I was very excited for my appointment with him. He has very strong hands, and was able to get the knots out and even found some I didn't know I had. He has amazing energy, and made me feel at ease right away, like we had known each other for years. He welcomed me into his oasis with a smile, massage table, calming music and great conversation. Instantly I forgot my stresses and was in total relaxation mode. I originally scheduled an hour, but my time with him was so good that I had to extend it. Jake more than exceeded my needs and expectations. I have visited my fair share of massages on masseurfinder, but Jake stands out to me as of one the best experiences. I will always keep an eye out for him if he comes back to town. If Jake is in your area, snatch him up!

Jake was very professional, his studio is clean and comfortable. The lighting was perfect. The table was heated, the lotion was too surprisingly. His hands are strong and his shoulder and neck work were superb. I really needed this. Good deep tissue massages are hard to come by in this area and I’m glad I made the appointment. He is definitely worth the money.

Jake was very professional and asked if there were any problem spots I wanted him to work on. The massage was very relaxing and I will definitely go to him.
Dec. 31, 2017 in Washington, DC (in-studio)
Ok, first and foremost, so great that Jake is back in DC. I had a massage with him years ago and it stuck with me so much that when I was back in town and saw that he was available I had to make an appointment. His technique is great, it’s relaxing and it gets the knots out. He genuinely knows what he’s doing. Hi space is great, his products are top notch, and he’s a great conversationalist, would honestly go back just to talk to him. All in all, I highly recommend,

Jake is a real gentleman His massage was very therapeutic.

Thank you jake! I'm in a super stressed job and my back,neck and shoulders are extremely tight and like rocks. Jake's massage worked the kinks out and I felt feeling great. He's a super nice guy, friendly and made the experience very enjoyable. My outlook has a recurring meeting !

After seeing Jake in NY was looking forward to seeing him in DC on a recent business trip. He has an excellent set-up not far from Dupont. Dedicated massage room with shower/bathroom and a very nice table. Great pressure throughout and adjusted as necessary. Worked through all the tight spots and just a super guy to talk to and get to know. If I were in DC, I would be a regular!

Jake really knows how to give a deep massage with lots of pressure. I can see why he has so many great reviews

Jake's hands are some of the best in the business. I tend to go for strong men. Jake is one of them. My massage was perfectly implemented.

This was my second appointment with Jake...definitely not my last. Great massage and a great man. Friendly, strong, relaxing space and amenities. Even better than the masseurs on here I have paid more for. Absolutely give Jake a try.
July 26, 2017 in Washington, DC (in-studio)
Glad to have this guy back! He has a nice space and a very comfortable table. Jake's massage technique is as skilled as I remember. He is very chill, and I felt at ease from start to finish.

I'm pleased with Jakes performance. He gives a great massage and def has a nice touch. I would recommend him to others looking for a massage in the dupont area. I live pretty close by and it's good to know I can walk over within a half hour and get a massage. Will continue to come back. Thanks Jake.
July 02, 2017 in Washington, DC (in-studio)
Jake is back and better than ever. It's been over 3 years since I last saw Jake and it's great to be able to say that he's just as good as I remember and he even has improved his massage technique. He worked out some problem areas in my calves and had me totally relaxed by the end. If you've ever thought about trying his services, I suggest you don't delay!
June 29, 2017 in Washington, DC (in-studio)
