What is Esqapes?
Why Should You License Esqapes?
Esqapes is the world’s first Virtual Reality Massage center and is unlike any current offering on the market. Outside of transporting people to exotic locations, while giving them a quality massage at a cost lower than most traditional massage sessions, here are a few key differentiators:
Esqapes experiences are consistent and of the highest quality every time, for every client
The ability to choose from different environments encourages repeat customer visits (17 different options and more in development)
Not reliant on therapists showing up or having varied levels of skills and experience
The annual commercial license cost for 3 rooms is less than the salary of one massage therapist
Investment and operational cost are relatively low (compared to traditional spas) and includes equipment and set up
Appeals to a younger demographic
What people are saying about Esqapes
Since opening the first center in July of 2019, Esqapes has received glowing press coverage from respected media outlets around the world. We have been featured on: ABC news, CBS news, NBC local, USA Today, Forbes, Engadget, Mashable, The Spa Insider and a host of others. A few selected quotes and excerpts:
“Micah has found an innovative VR use that I and many others are getting behind. From my own experience, Esqapes is the ultimate escape from reality. My body and mind feel better for it. I’ll definitely be back!”
“Not only do you see and hear the world you are in, but you also can smell and feel it. The tropical island smells of oranges and you can feel the heat of the sun warming your skin, all while your body is being relaxed by a massage…” - Madeline Purdue, USA TODAY
“I walked in wondering whether I was going to make a deadline, juggling work and wedding planning and family obligations. But after just 30 minutes, I walked out of that small room in the similar pleasantly hazy frame of mind that I more often get after a rigorous one-and-a-half-hour yoga class. For me, the Esqape worked.” - RACHEL KRAUS, MASHABLE

Who is the Esqapes customer?
Customer Breakdown
Esqapes are designed to be enjoyed by anyone. However, this experience has proven to be particularly attractive to men and women in the 35 – 55 age range. The second most interested demographic are men and women in the 25 – 34 age range.
Given the aforementioned demographics, the majority of our guests are women between the ages of 25 – 55. This group is typically used to spending $50 (or more) on self-care and personal maintenance on a weekly or monthly basis. These have been our most loyal customers and advocates to date.
In recent online advertising campaigns, men within the same age ranges have expressed interest in Esqapes and in many cases were more likely than their female counterparts to visit the website or click on a link. The appeal for men is likely greater than that of traditional spas or massage parlors, given the virtual reality component.
