Human@Ease

I found a living social deal for a detox package and decided to try hunan@ease. I made the trek from the Bronx to Brooklyn and after taking the G in the wrong direction made it to my appointment. I have a few spa massages a year usually gifts from people who think I’m too tense I generally agree. What I hate about spas is how sort of sterile it all is someone greets you dressed in all white you drink warm water it’s silent and I can never relax. I will say this massage was the opposite definitely the most relaxing massage I’ve had which was very surprising. With the detox you also get a face massage green tea eye treatment aromatherapy and 30 minutes in the sauna. Facility was very clean and more important warm and inviting. I felt in a word at ease. My only complaint and this isn’t necessarily for the business is I wish I knew before hand how much the package normally costs and the suggested tip. You cannot tip on a card but can pay tax on a deal with one. I felt terrible for only having 13 bucks in cash but hopefully ill be back soon!

Went here with a friend for a living social deal. The employees are incredibly friendly and welcoming. Each one I encountered had something nice to say about their services without being pushy. I had a massage, body wrap, and used their sauna. Their massage therapist is heavenly with her hands and was super nice! They also offer more services for the body and mind. Not only will I spread the word about them but I want to come back and try out more of their services.

I have been coming to Human@Ease for almost a year and a half. My partner and I regularly use the infrared sauna and really enjoy the experience. The gym has a very laid back feel to it and while I am mainly familiar with the infrared sauna space they offer some really cool programs and classes that I would definitely check out if I lived closer. The sauna space is always clean and there is a shower in the room which was a life saver for me when I used to work in the evenings. They also have toiletries that you can use such as shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion etc. Geo and other front desk staff are always super helpful and accommodating when it comes to scheduling and any concerns that may come up. They have deals from time to time on sauna packages which has also really helped me out given my grad student status. This is a super laid-​back, welcoming and relaxed gym that offers a great infrared sauna. I would recommend for anyone interested in wellness services to check out Human@Ease!

Beautiful space, classes are not over-​crowded, extremely friendly staff, and a bonus of this awesome fluffy-​lion-​dog that chills in the reception area.
Last night I had my second yoga class in my life, and 1^st in several years. I booked via ClassPass for the Happy Hour Yoga.
I was a little late and thought for sure they would not let me into the class. The weather was really bad last night.
The woman at reception not only let me into the class. But she was super understanding and friendly. I rushed into the class, and fumbled my way through it. I am not good at yoga (yet).
The instructor, Nikki Saint, was amazing! She was very down to earth and kind of funny at times, which I loved, it made me feel comfortable. She came over to me at one point to ask if I was ok and totally didn’t judge me for opting for child’s pose when I couldn’t keep up. I didn’t feel intimidated thanks to her. Towards the end there was a nice relaxing part and she even came over and had some aroma therapy stuff. She also adjusted my positioning a few times. I’d say she’s very attentive to her class. I will totally go back. I’ve already recommended the studio to a bunch of friends. Highly recommend!

I found a deal on groupon for a couples massage. Never had one before so didn’t know what to expect. I was also reluctant to go to Bk just for a massage (I live in Queens).
Well, I’m glad I did. The staff was nice and welcoming.
The place was clean and relaxing. I loved the lobby, it has an artisanal feel to it.
The massage itself was excellent. I was massaged with lemongrass /​coconut oil for 20−25mn then wrapped before heading to the sauna for about 30−40mn.There’s even a shower in the sauna room so you can be all clean when leaving.
It was a positive experience for me as well as my husband and I would recommend it to anyone.
I work long hours and it’s just what I needed .We loved it so much we have decided to come back every month or so for that massage, it will be our special pampering.
Bonus :it’s in the busy area so you can hang out and eat there. Makes for a great date.
Thank you human@ease !! Can’t wait to be back.

I usually don’t rate places but this is seriously the worst place ever. There were flies all over the place and there’s no bathroom — Are you serious?
The receptionist girl is dumb as a brick and is literally responds «I don’t know» to any questions.
Avoid this place if you don’t want to be bitten by Mosquitos, be overcharged, and deal with useless people
Avoid this place at all costs.

I love this place! Such a chill gym, great equipment and flexible pricing for sessions. I do the ‘self guided personal training’. The first couple of sessions they teach you about the equipment, help you find your proper settings and then from there you keep a progress chart of your workouts week to week. I’ve been slacking a little more lately but i’ve been coming here pretty consistently for the past year and I just have had such a great experience and great results! I’m usually coming at strange hours so I get to have time in the gym area all by myself usually or at max with 1 or 2 others at a time. I also had the community shiatsu, which is shiatsu massage (think Reiki and Accupressure combined) by donation. I felt like I was walking on air afterwards (in the best way possible!)
Also, I have nothing but great things to say about everyone who works there. The owner Di is super sweet and helpful — she also has the cutest dog on the face of the planet I would say (somewhat bias because I see him every week) but still! I just love coming here and it’s become a little home away from home for me in Greenpoint/​Williamsburg area. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great, low key gym to call home! :)

Been going here for an over a year now to use their massage/​sauna services and I love t! I think it’s extremely affordable. They’re are super nice, the place is very clean and I’m very much so at peace every time I walk out. Give it a try!

It’s been exactly a year since I’ve joined Human@Ease and I can definitely say that I have no regrets. I started the gym with the BEST program — a 3 month course focusing on overall wellness + health involving everything from discussions about eating habits as well as strength training. I lost the 10 stubborn pounds I was holding onto during the program and have kept it off a year later! My eating habits and exercise regiments have definitely changed from the program. So far at Human@Ease, I’ve tired their personal training, introversion self-​training, group classes, and I can say that they’re all great. I probably prefer the strength training most because it involves tracking data to see how you’re progressing which is a big motivating factor for me. The staff is extremely helpful and a great source of support. If you want something different from a normal «gym» experience, definitely try the place out!

This is my gym of sorts now. It’s not a gym in the typical sense, it’s small and has a limited amount of machines (I took a star off for the ones I miss), but that’s not that point. This is a place to work out and have a non-​gym experience. So, if like me, you don’t like the usual pumping music, steroidal grunting and competition for machines, this is far better. The staff are also super helpful and pleasant to deal with, something I didn’t always find at the previous places I’ve been in nyc. So if your looking to work out but are put off by the gym atmosphere, this is a definite alternative.

I had a massage with Kasia and it was unlike any massage that I had ever had, and yes… I’ve had a lot of massages. I laid on the floor and she stretched me out, rolled me into a ball, etc. It was a little like Rolfing. I’ve never had a Thai massage, maybe that is similar, but I wouldn’t know. Anyways, I felt relaxed afterwards and that she worked out the kinks. I liked that she stretched me out. It was truly a unique experience that I thoroughly enjoyed.
I’ve also taken Tai Chi here and liked that class a lot too.

Ever wonder what it would be like to smell and feel like an old piece of wrigley’s doublemint gum? Now’s your chance! Yes, this was a living social deal. First they tried to sell me an add-​on massage to the wrap and sauna aromatherapy session I had already purchased. I declined. It would have been nice to know in advance when I made my appt. that the person doing the wrap was a man. He also didn’t speak clearly, so that also made things uncomfortable, as I had to keep asking him to repeat. himself. They don’t even offer disposable panties, needless to say I kept mine on. He says to me as I’m face down on the table, «I understand you declined the massage, but I like to massage beforehand.» I’m sure he’s a nice person, but he was clearly not a trained or experienced massage therapist. even rubbing in some of the obvious no-​no spots, (bone, spine). It didn’t help that his hands felt quite callused/​rough. He put some spearmint oil on me and said that was the aromatherapy! (I still smell like cheap gum even after two showers.) Why can’t they ask what scent you might like? Then came the wrap. This was the worst wrap I’ve ever had. A seven year old child could do a better job. He did once around my calves, and something messy around my upper knee area, completing missing thighs, also wrapped my rib cage, but not my stomach area. When I got in my room alone, I tried to rewrap the stingy material there was. The plastic was rolled and not smooth, when it dawned on me, I’m a giant wad of stinky gum! Then I went in the sauna. No big deal. It’s not even big enough to lie down on your back with your knees bent! Also, after the «wrap» I asked for towels, stating it would be nice to have a towel in the sauna/​and or when I got out of the shower. He said I could use what he had resting on me before (a hand towel, and two small foot mat towels!!), which were also caked with stinky spearmint. Really, no towels I asked? There is a towel shortage now, he told me. I sat uncomfortably in the sauna for 40 mins, it wasn’t even that hot, then took a shower. My underwear was soaked. No spares! Also the bath mat in front of the shower was already damp (not pleasant or spa-​like), luckily lighting was dim so if it was also dirty, I was able to miss that. When I got out the desk lady tells me there’s a five dolllar service fee and mentions the gratuity. Paid their service fee, but this was the first time I’ve never left a tip, and I’m usually a 20−25% tipper. Now I’ve got to get these sore spots out of my neck where the guy uninvitedly rubbed me the wrong way. Literally!
Tip– If you already bought a coupon for this place and need to use it, bring your own towel, don’t get spearmint, don’t get massaged, and bring your own plastic wrap! If you were thinking about coming here for this kind of treatment, I’d say skip it! You’ll sweat more at a bikram class, just laying in child’s pose, and it will cost you less.

i really enjoyed the Detox package! I just had my second experience yesterday. The Massage therapist, Elliot Anderson is really great. He is attentive, gentle, gives tips for home and does a wonderful job overall. He makes you feel comfortable. I highly recommend him and Human@ease in general. I will use more of their services.

VERY UNPROFESSIONAL.
Bought a groupon for the Shrink me in a Hurry package.
Made an appointment, and was told to get there 15 minutes early to fill out paperwork. When I got there, I just waited and waited. Only one guy working there was helping another woman with a personal training session, and didn’t even notice when customers walked in. Many walked in, stayed 5 minutes, then left.
Waited 30 minutes before I was told the woman who was supposed to help me today just «didn’t show up». He didn’t seem surprised, as if she just didn’t show up on a regular basis. After an hour he told me I might as well leave.
Worst experience, even if I were to get the package I paid for, the place did not look professional, would not recommend it to anyone.

I purchased a online deal for an hour-​long massage at a very good price and it was fantastic! I was able to book easily at a time that was convenient to me. The staff was very nice and made me feel very comfortable. Their non-​discounted prices are very reasonable as well. I’ll definitely return when I need a bit of pampering self-​care!

My friend & I went to use a Groupon that we purchased. We both really enjoyed our visit and we’d go back for sure. We did a detox package that included a massage, wrap and then time spent in a sauna. The massage was really great! Very relaxing. Everyone there was really nice and helpful too.

Got a groupon here that wasn’t worth it at all! but that doesn’t stop me from being a fan. The staff is great, their dog michito is the cutest!!! I would love to go here just for yoga or the classes. Everything else I could skip out on.

I purchased a package, and go here just for the infra-​red sauna. I had to complete a questionnaire prior to using the sauna, this seemed a little unique. However, the form was not excessively long, it was two or three pages.
The sauna itself works fine. They hooked up a car stereo inside the sauna so clients may make their own music choices. I personally don’t need it ’cause I bring my own book with me. They provide enough towels, a glass of water, and toiletries. There’s a shower in the room for after the sauna-​so that’s a plus.
Dishan, the owner, is very pleasant and so is every staff member that I’ve dealt with so far. The décor is lovely, very zen like, and relaxing.
Although the neighborhood (Williamsburg, Brooklyn) is a little out-​of-​the-​way for me, at least they are close to a train– the G line. Another plus is their business hours, most days they are open ’till 9pm.
The location also offers various styles of yoga and massage, maybe I’ll try it someday.

Let me preface with: the gym is not my favorite place. Human@Ease has really impressed me and besides being impressive, has actually provided me with a place i can feel comfortable working out. I like the whole vibe and vision of this place. Its a gym and wellness center combined and you can tell they are heavily into holistic health. I’ve taken ZUMBA there, and LOVED it. I’ve used their infrared sauna, which was clean and just an overall nice experience. The people there are really nice, and seem to make an effort to know their clients. It really has changed the way i feel about working out. I actually look forward to going to classes now.

I had surgery last winter and wasn’t ab;e to work out for a couple months; I gained about 10 pounds. Try as I did to get the weight off, doing my usual yoga, cardio and pilates I had been doing to stay in shape for years, I became pretty convinced I would never lose it. I walked into human@ease in September, and learned about their self training and bmi assessment and figured it couldn’t hurt; I never did weight training before but I was willing to try anything!
With Dishan’s guidance, self training 2 – 3 times a week, and some suggested dietary changes my body fat dropped 4 percent (mind you, only about 6 months) and I feel like I’m in the best shape of my life.
I couldn’t recommend her more highly. She taught me how to use the machines, create my own workouts, and helped me get results.
