The Urban Muse

I started coming to the urban muse a few months ago and have been consistently booking treatments and services. I cannot rave enough about the quality, service and experience you will have.
As a frequent Spa goer. I’ve had the opportunity to visit some wonderful places and some truly horrible places. The Urban Muse tops my list as one of the absolute best spas I’ve had the pleasure of visiting.
My first experience was after receiving the hands down worst massage of my life at a neighboring establishment. The therapist I was pared with (Jamie) at the urban muse took the time to listen to my needs and pain points and did an absolutely amazing job of undoing the damage done by the other place.
I’ve seen her two additional times and she’s nothing short of amazing!
I’m heading in tomorrow for a facial and massage package and while I don’t have Jamie tomorrow. She mentioned that everyone on staff is wonderful and highly accomplished in what they do.
The gift shop is also wonderful. If you are into healing energy and looking for something unique to give someone or yourself, this is the place
Every person is nicer than the next.

The massage therapist didn’t give me the full time I paid for. Also didn’t get the knots out of my back. I told the therapist at the end I still had knots and he said «they would work themselves out». Told the manager I was dissatisfied and she didn’t care. Did a great job the first time then once I came back not so much.

My Husband booked me the Sedona Rose package for my birthday. It was amazing! Jodie made my horrible shoulders feel like marshmallows and was a total pleasure to chat with during my treatment! The whole experience was wonderful from start to end, they even brought me a cupcake for my birthday! I can’t wait to go again!!!

Wow! Unexpected pleasure plus THE BEST Therapeutic deep tissue massage I’ve had in a very long time! John really gave me his entire strength and ability. I will say it hurt… so good!!! I thought I would be sore the next day… surprise! I was not! My whole body needed this! John delivered and really helped. Walking up and down the stairs the next day seemed to overnight get 75% better… they are still needy, but whatever he did took the pain to a lower level… my legs, my back my arms, my Head! All felt good the next day! I recommend John to who ever needs a truly medicinal type massage… or just a stress reliever… he is truly a healing man. I am thinking about going again in a few days just to cap it off! I am so grateful to him for helping. My only complaint… I wanted to take a hot shower before and after and it was not offered. Another woman was there at the same time as I and finished at the same time. John kinda disappeared, after handing me a glass of water. The other therapist offered the hot shower to her client. I had wished I could have to relax more n drive home n go to. Ed! That I think was the unfortunate problem our appointments were the last of the day. Which is the time I like to go, at night… so I am relaxed for bedtime. There is a two storefront boutique when you walk in, so if you are a first timer, you may think you are in the wrong place! Which I did. No one told me that when I made my appointment. Just an FYI to newbies of the Urban Muse… PS there is a salon I think upstairs. Again, they didn’t tell me, I asked, and did t offer to show me around either at the end. But they were busy closing. Kinda rushed at end! Still go there for JOHNS massage

Everyone at Urban Muse is so nice and do such a great job! I would highly recommend this spa!

I recently received a spa finder gift card for my birthday. I wanted to try someplace different so I looked up information on the Urban Muse. From the first time making the appointment it was such a pleasant experience When I checked in I was greeted so warmly and then ushered upstairs to the relaxation room where i sat and enjoyed the sounds and serenity. My first treatment was a facial where I told the therapist I had vertigo. She was more than accommodating and the facial was awesome. She then proceeded to let the massage therapist know that I had vertigo and when I came into my 2^nd treatment. The room was all set for me for my massage. The massage was as wonderful. Normally when you check out after having back to back treatments the cashier usually doesn’t have a clue, however when I checked out it was seamless and was simple. Therefore keeping my zen. To round out the perfect experience I received a personal thank you card from both therapists stating it was a pleasure to meet me with a 10% coupon for my next visit. Needless to say they have more than earned my business. Highly recommended

I went in for a facial here. The experience was just amazing! I had to drag in my husband too. He was having a stressful week and I so wanted him to relax. They don’t hurry you at all. The environment is very relaxing. If you would like, they get you a cup of tea at the end of the service. There is a boutique below where you can shop for little things like earrings, necklace, essential oils, shawls, hat etc. It is lovely. The spa is best for couples and to spend time with your girlfriends. I can’t wait to come back! Thank you for making us feel so comfortable.

Although it takes me about 40 – 45 minutes to get to The Urban Muse, it’s so worth it! The massage therapists at the spa are extremely knowledgeable of the treatment required for the client. Every massage session that I have had at the spa have beyond spectacular. In addition to the superb quality of the services, The Urban Muse has a storefront that offers unique items, such as soaps, jewelry, books, accessories, household items, etc (great gift items). I always recommend my friends and family to visit The Urban Muse.

Just had a prenatal massage here with Heather — it was BEYOND amazing! Her technique was great & pressure was perfect. The table was made super comfy & warm. Atmosphere is clean, quiet, & relaxing. Fruit infused water, nuts, cookies are available in the spa lounge. Tea/​water offered after your massage. You don’t feel rushed at all.
I’m glad i decided to drive a little further out from livingston to find a better deal on prenatal massages than what was offered in town. Totally worth the 20 min drive!

I discovered The Urban Muse on line after reading such great reviews. It was the best way I knew how to give someone a personal and extra special «Thank You» gift. I knew if I just gave the person a gift card it would never be used. So we went in for a visit. She received the 90min Warm Winter Delight and while I got the Mandarin Body Polish. The place is very charming, the people are delightful and very caring. The place smells amazing and we both walked away vowing to come back again for another visit. It was an amazing time! Thank you Urban Muse we glowed all the way home!

Sarah was awesome. I feel loved up and relaxed. Highly recommend Srah. She’s got the magic touch.

This place has become a staple for my girlfriend and I. When we need to unwind, we come here for a massage followed by the amazing steam shower. This place is amazing and never disappoints. Every time we come we have a different masseuse, and every one of them have been amazing! Absolutely love this place!

The Urban Muse… oh how fantastic you are. I cannot tell you how many times I passed this place thinking it was just a trinket shop. Lord I was wrong. I had no idea what was in store for the Mrs when I booked a spa treatment for her bday. Sure in the front it seems small but that’s so deceiving! UM is 2 floors of complete bliss. The front of the store sells trinkets, jewelry and accessories for the woman in your life. In the back and upstairs is heaven.
*Her spa treatment of 75 minutes was well worth the price tag it came with.
*They allowed me to go in the back to chill out and nosh on cookies, goodies and sip some lemon water while she received her massage (I declined but was able to enjoy it after she was done).
*They don’t rush you. You can literally spend the day just vegging out in the back on comfy couches.
*The staff is so friendly and adorable.
*I would have to say this place is neck and neck with De Pasquale…
*Take your boulder off your wallet Gents and treat your special someone to The Urban Muse. *wink wink*

It’s honestly a great massage but definitely expensive. The shower heads are not great. The tea, refreshments, and hospitality is wonderful.
Been to Depasquale the spa and the urban muse, and I would recommend Depasquale purely based on the serenity of the entire place and the quality of the shower.

I went to Urban Muse for the first time last week based on the great reviews. I was late for my spa appointment because my GPS literally broke on me while I was driving. I had to call the spa and they gave me street by street directions. I was about 15 minutes late to my spa appointment but the receptionists were very kind and forgiving for my debacle. They didn’t give me any attitude or rush me because I was late.
I got the de-​stress package (massage and facial) and after 3 hours, I was completely de-​stressed! The waiting room had excellent snacks and they offered gourmet tea while you wait. The décor was tranquil with a little Eastern aesthetic touch. The space itself was clean and huge (2 floors)! Both masseuse and facialist were very professional and did an excellent job. No complaints. The price was about average price but the service made it feel like I was at a 5 star hotel. I am definitely coming back.

Let me first say that this review is NOT for the spa. (I haven’t used those services.)
The store in the front part of the spa is amazingggg. Why hadn’t I found this place sooner? Such great stuff, but I especially enjoyed all the fragrance oils, incense, and incense burners, etc. They also have amazing scents and soaps. I may have a slight obsession with home fragrances, so I was in heaven here.
Their jewelry is also quite pretty. The feel and smell of this place made me feel happy and I can’t wait to go back.
On Pink Ladies Night Out (a local fundraiser), they also had the most amazing guitarist/​singer. I need this guy’s CD, seriously. Can that happen?

The Urban Muse does it right!!! They understand what is is the relax and be pampered. Everyone is soft spoken and pleasant and never once do you feel rushed. I was a little hesistant in trying another spa as I WAS a diehard Depasquales patron but after going here once and experiencing the best massage ever, I will never go back to DePasquales.
At the Urban Muse, you NEVER hear any slamming doors or people walking down the hallway or loud voices. They are just fantastic at keeping it as quiet as possible. Everyone I have encountered inside the spa is professional and accommodating.
I would highly recomend anyone interested in trying it, to go ahead and book your massage or facial, you will not be disappointed!

My fiancé and I recently went here for a couples massage and it was amazing. We had such a nice relaxing time. I had purchased the couples massage which included a hour long massage and dinner at a local restaurant, I highly recommend this, it was a fantastic deal.
We arrived at the spa about 20 minutes early and were able to relax with some delicious tea and snacks in the very comfortable waiting area. Our massueses came out, introduced themselves and made us feel completely comfortable the entire time. After our massages, we showered in the steam shower and got ready for our dinner reservations at the Second Half on Main. I didn’t feel at any time rushed for us to hurry up and get out. Everyone was extremely nice and accomodating. The shower was very well stocked with shampoo, conditioners, soaps, and a hair dryer.
The dinner, which was included with the spa package we purchased, far exceeded my expectations. I anticipated a «prix-​fix» menu of sorts with 1 glass of wine, however our meal included any bottle of wine off their wine list, salads, any entrée from the menu and 2 desserts. Our table was ready for us when we got there and the service at Second Half on Main was fantastic. Our waitress took the time to go over what was included with our meal and the owner/​manager even came over at one point to ask not only how our meal was going but also how we enjoyed our massages! I thought this was so great and thoughtful.
Our entire afternoon/​evening was great and my fiancé and myself thouroughly enjoyed the experience and cannot wait to do it again.

Yeah, yeah, yeah-I’m reviewing another place that every guy in Morris County should get to know if you want to bring a smile to your lady’s face.
Let me start with the spa… in full disclosure, my comments are based on my wife’s utter happiness when she she comes home from ANY of the spa treatments at the Urban Muse. Both she and my daughter have been there together and apparently the massages, body treatments and facials are HOT! I can’t argue with the end product which is two beauties in my house in a totally relaxed state (at least until my son, my dogs, or I turn them back into raging crazies).
Personally, for me (since I’ve never used the spa), the boutique is really awesome because you can get your lady friends anything from skin care products to candles to jewelry and there hundreds and hundreds of great products to choose from. Close your eyes, point a something, and buy it, because she’ll love it.
My wife absolutely loves this place… and it is SO easy to find her nice things here… when all else fails and I need a last minute gift… I can’t go wrong with a gift certificate. Boys, I’m trying to push you in the right direction… take my advice!

This spa is pretty nice. You walk in they have a shop downstairs and the massage and relaxation room/​s are upstairs. After they take you in, you can sit in there relaxation room and have some tea or water. The tea was rather good and got my stamp of approval. The fountain off the one wall adds to the serene environment.
I had the surrender massage with Amber and she was really great. As said by d b. she is friendly but not chatty. As unsure about this as I was, she made me feel really comfortable. I would come back here without a second thought.
As for parking, park around the corner, infront of the building is only 1 hour parking, if you make the first right, after you pass the place, that street is 2 hour parking.
