Salvation Wellness

I've lived in Jersey City since 2007 and this is my first time here and it was great!   It appears they recently moved into the space around the corner on Columbus too and that space is fantastic.  I was looking for a quick treatment for same day and they came though!  Truth be told,  I tried setting up an online appointment but there was a user error (me) with actually completing it.  When I showed up for what I thought I had made the appointment, it didn't go through!  They were more than accommodating in fitting me in with who was available.  Space is super peaceful and not your traditional spa-like atmosphere which, quite frankly, I loved!   Great job and I will certainly be back!

Just had my first cbd massage here and Had an excellent experience. This was possibly one of the best massages i have received across NYC, Hoboken and JC. I suffer from cervical radiculopathy due to a cervical slip disc a few years ago. Getting a good massage that addresses underlying musculoskeletal issues is as rare as it gets. I walked out today feeling lighter than ever, and cannot wait to be back! Highly recommended! More...

I've been spending time exploring Jersey City because my sister just moved here. Not a Yelp reviewer either but I had to share. She bought me a 90 minute CBD massage because I have Lyme disease and thought it would help my pain. I was a skeptic with this new CBD thing everyone is talking about, but I couldn't believe how much better I felt after my massage!! I have had my fair share of massages and I think I have a good gauge of talent. Johanna has a strong intuitive touch and took great care of me. Definitely going back, I'm hooked. More...

I just happen to walk by and the combination of CBD and massage caught my eye. They happen to have a last minute massage session open plus it was an early bird special deal! The vibe and atmosphere was really nice and relaxing.Their products smells so good, I end up buying some! The owners and staff are kind, welcoming, very well educated and experienced. I'd definitely come back and recommend this place to my friends. More...

The owner was nice enough to refund me my money and provided a credit for a massage after I was unable to go to my first appointment due to medical emergency. I came in last Sunday for a prenatal massage, my first. I wanted to try prenatal massages elsewhere before posting this review because maybe the expectations are different from regular massage. My initial thought is that everyone was very nice at Salvation Wellness, but overall, the prenatal massage was nothing magical. More...

I honestly despise Yelp in every possible way but I'm using it hypocritically to say that this was possibly a life-changing experience. In the 7 years I've worked behind bars as a bartender and barback I've done unfathomable damage to my back, shoulders and neck. Plus a traumatic skateboard injury to my left shoulder 8 years ago has left me with an arm that comes out of socket at least once a month. After seeing Sarah today for a one hour session, I feel as if I've reached a positive turning point for my physical well-being. She was extremely patient with me and after dedicating 38 minutes to my shoulders alone, was able to restore full range of motion to both my rotator cuffs. I am typing this in disbelief, I've not been able to lay on my back with my shoulders relaxed above my head for the better half of the past decade until this afternoon.The remaining 22 minutes were spent on my neck, hips (which are also quite fucked up from skateboarding) and back. I feel like I'm floating. I can not recommend this place enough, and specifically Sarah's unreal talent as a massage therapist. Thank you so much. More...

I had a CBD massage with Carrie. This was so much more than a typical massage. Carrie was able to hone in on my trouble areas with the skill of a surgeon. She showed me the source of my back problem and showed me how my entire body was compensating and where it was weakened.  She referred me to a physical therapist. Now I will receive the healing that I need. I am very grateful for Carrie and Salvation Wellness - aptly named! More...

I went to Salvation Wellness for the first time today and had a massage by a Sarah. This was probably the best massage experience I have ever had. She noticed where my pain points just by looking at me and she spent a lot of time on the tension in my jaw/neck. I have so much relief I'm in shock. Most massages I get just make me feel relaxed but this actually made me feel healed from a pain I've been experiencing for months. Thank you so much for this experience. I will tell all my friends about this place. More...

I can't say enough good things about Salvation Wellness. The owner, Cea, knows more about anatomy, functional movement, and chronic pain than anyone I know. You need not come here for temporary relief alone; the people working here are well versed in self care and how to make improvements in your daily life to create big differences in your overall health. In addition to massage, I have personally really enjoyed their self massage classes and hope to attend a dynamic anatomy class soon. Before SW, I'd hope to get a massage where I would not just fall asleep on the table . Now I have the luxury of walking in and getting all of my problem areas addressed with little verbal instruction from me, if any. More...

Salvation Wellness is awesome. My therapist, Becky, is really thorough, hears all I have to say with what hurts and presses/squeezes/stretches/pampers exactly the right thing to make me feel human again. I've also been seen by the owner Ceallaigh (for the better part of a decade), who really is an expert and addresses my ailments, aches and pains with utmost professionalism, care, and knowledge. She highly recommended I see Becky when I couldn't get in to see Cea for a session. More...

This place is awesome.  Came in to pick up some items to help with my headaches.  The owners really helped walk me through the products and really did not try to push anything on me that they didn't feel would help. The products itself are very high quality and at a price that is slightly less than the boxed stuff you can get elsewhere.  This place is a find...check it out!! More...

Went for my first massage about a week and a half ago and it was awesome! I already booked my next appointment. The only negative thing I noticed: the massage room was very cold, it could've just been a one time thing because it was literally 15 degrees outside but the sheets on the bed kept me pretty warm. I only noticed it when different parts of my body were uncovered throughout the massage. The staff is super nice and the space is really cute! More...

Wasn't sure what to expect considering i have a tear in my left shoulder and have had multiple cortisone shots to ease the pain throughout the years. Also have had been to other massage places as well. Usually left in more pain then went i went in at these other places. I got a gift certificate to SW for xmas, so when i read some of the reviews i was excited to see how they would do. They did not disappoint! My therapist christine listened to me and to what my problem was. Was thoroughly impressed! I was able to have better mobility range in my arm and pain was almost 95% gone. Was able to finally get a good nights sleep. She also then informed me how to stretch it out on the foam roller. And at the end of it all she recommended to come in once a month to maintain, not once a week or twice a week which i feel like most places would to get your money. Couldn't have been more happier with my results. Also this is prob the 2nd review i have ever left in my life just to give some insight on how great my arm felt. More...

Had a great experience here. I tried the TMJ 15 minute release massage. It is intra oral so they actually apply pressure inside and outside of the mouth to get the deepest points possible. I'd never tried any bodywork like that before. Sarah did a fabulous job and the pressure was perfect. She was very clear on advising what she was doing and why she was doing it. The facility is very clean, well organized, relaxing and well run. The staff was 100% ready for me when I got there. There is a nice big bathroom. I've also tried the CBD massage there, which I loved, but would prefer as a deep tissue massage next time. I was offered water after my treatment right away. They have some self care items for purchase too. I am going back again to try the infrared sauna for a 30 minute appointment next week and am looking forward to another experience there. The building is easy to find and relatively close to the path station. Great spot! I booked through class pass. More...

I've seen a few of the massage therapists and they're all great but I really loved Carrie! I've had chronic back pain for the past two months and have had a lot of massages to alleviate the pain.

Some of it was painful, but totally worth it! More...

What a fantastic find!This place is wonderful: conveniently located, cool interior, efficient front desk staff, and a fantastic massage! Just be aware that this is NOT the kind of massage you get when you want to relax; this is the kind of massage that is uncomfortable because it actually makes a lasting difference, especially if you're an athlete. I've never had a TMJ release before or a number of other techniques used here, but they all released tension that I've had for years.I'll absolutely come back to this place again! More...

I suffer from TMJ disorder, and this is one of the few places that offers intra-oral TMJ massage (inside the mouth). I've been to places that just massage the "outside" (like your face and neck), which is fine, but sometimes you just "knead" to get right in there! See what I did there? They use gloves, like a dentist, so please don't be wary, it's not icky. If you have tightness or clenching in your jaw (which is every woman I know) do yourself a favor and try their TMJ release service. It's a quick 15-minute session to release your jaw tension, and it offers so much relief from popping and clicking! Arielle does my sessions, ask for her! I go about once a week to maintain and combat my TMJ. What are you waiting for! More...

Not my first rodeo when it comes to massage therapy, however, it is the first time that I can say that no matter who I work with at Knead, I always get a fantastic massage. I am currently working with Becky, and she is amazing!  My neck has been a mess (much of it caused by TMJ) and it leads to pain in my shoulder, arm, back, etc. Becky has, within 3 sessions given me back 75% of my mobility on that side of my body.  I was limited to a stiff neck look on a regular basis, and now I can actually turn my head all the way around to look behind me. Comes in handy when driving :) Cea is beyond amazing as well, and really played a major role in my pain relief starting a few years ago. Now she has developed a CBD oil that not only smells amazing...it works! I had what I believe to have been sun damage on my nose, it was scaly, and was a real concern for me. Before running out to have it chopped off my face, someone suggested trying CBD oil on it. I tried the Knead CBD oil...Um...it's gone, like it never existed. I had that for YEARS! I am still in shock, and disbelief, but it is gone.  Thank you all for the amazing massage therapy, and the best CBD oil! More...

When I carve out a portion of my crazy day to write a review, you know the service was that great! Such was the case with Knead. I'd been suffering from plantaar faciitis for months with little relief despite podiatrist visits, cortisone shots, etc. Enter Becky at Thread. I was skeptical, since not many things had offered relief, but I was tired of limping around and cutting back on activities so I figured it was worth a shot. Whatever voodoo she did worked! She didn't just concentrate on my foot, but on all the other muscles in my legs that might be causing the tension. I booked for 30 and then wished I had booked 2 hours! I was feeling better by the next day and ended up going out that night which I was sure I was going to pay for--wrong! For the first time in months I didn't hobble out of bed and spent the rest of the day walking around comfortably! I'm not saying there was witchcraft involved, just that Becky did something magical! I definitely KNEAD this place and Becky with the good hands in my life! More...

Love this place.  Carrie is fantastic as a massage therapist - bespoke sessions with suggestions on how I can work on my "problem" areas myself.  And today I did the CBD Yin Yoga workshop with Cealleigh, the owner.  Incredibly relaxing combo with restorative and generous use her own CBD products.  And I'm WAY out of practice with my yoga but the session was completely unintimidating.  I left feeling simultaneously lighter, more energized, and more chill.  And, I'll also add one other thing -- There was one time a few months ago when I had a massage session with another therapist, and things went awry.  So sure, sometimes there are kinks in the system.  But....I reached out to Cea about it and she addressed the situation immediately,  and was gracious in her response.  I'm very happy to have Knead nearby.

Carrie is the greatest massage therapist ever. She customizes each massage for the thing that's particularly wrong with you that day and can usually tell just by looking at you what needs to be worked on. I would come see here every week if I could!I will say there are some issues with the front desk--it's happened twice now I've booked appointments, received confirmations, only to show up and be told they have no record of my appointment. But the massages are worth putting up with the ineptness, I just wish they'd work on their system so this doesn't keep happening. More...
