But a recent appointment at ila Only Spa at the luxurious Lotte New York Palace hotel didn't resemble past spa experiences.
Litman secured $80 million in funding and spent seven years on research and development before launching the world's first customizable robot massage in March.
What a robot massage feels likeFor those who are uncomfortable stripping down in front of a stranger, Aescape solves the problem.
I lay face down on the massage table, which was firmer than a typical spa table.
I typically request moderate pressure from massage therapists, but Aescape's middle setting felt intense.
