I have a back injury so tend to be a frequenter of massage providers. I've tried a bunch of massage services and providers and it's really hit or miss. But this seems way better than trying to book something directly with a masseuse/masseur which usually involves a lot of back and forth for scheduling, rates, clarification of service, etc. So I'm really glad that there is some disruption in this space to make this particular hassle easier. I also think that this model could possibly guarantee a better overall experience as there is someone on the other end that cares about converting you into a regular customer on their platform which may improve quality standards everywhere, and especially for the providers on the particular platform. In my experience, massage providers seldom care if you had a good experience and there is basically nothing you can do if you had a bad one. This is especially true if you go to get massage as a form of physical therapy rather than just someone giving you a relaxation rub.
I've actually used Pine a few times and I will say that the booking process is surprisingly simple via their app and website. Also, I've never been disappointed with the quality of the provider I got - seems like at the very least this startup has really good relationships with quality providers that they are able to bring onto the platform. Worth a try in my opinion.
