Affordable massage for athletes and dancers
Massage is very valuable for people who push their body to the limit. I also know the frustration of having to limit training, competing or performing or even completely stop due to injury or chronic pain. I provide quality massage therapy at an affordable price. My goal is to assist you in having a long and successful career which will ideally translate into a lifespan of healthy activity.
Techniques
My manual therapy technique encourages mobility by incorporating Deep Tissue Massage, Release techniques (similar to Active Release Technique A.R.T., Tool assisted (similar to Graston) Active Isolated and Post Isometric Relaxation Stretching, Kinesio Taping, hydrotherapy (ice massage), and new! NormaTec MVP sequential compression boots (see News below). I have trained as a multi-sport athlete and dancer so I am quite aware of the how your body may feel as the result of training.
Rather than perform formulated massage strokes or employ extreme and pin-pointed pressure so as to induce pain, I try to cater each session to the unique needs of my client.

What to bring
Please arrive on time for your session. I do not want to limit your session due to lateness. The office has a waiting room. Please bring shorts or something you are comfortable stretching in while preserving your modesty. Payments are cash or check. Paypal payments can be arranged and gift certificates are available. Tipping is NOT permitted. Sessions are typically 75 minutes in total. They can be made shorter if you have time constraints.

I have been using the NormaTec MVP compression boots www.normatecsports.com for a few months now
I like them and the feedback has been positive. May have great value for recovery while training and competing. Will be using the arm sleeve with the elite wheelchair athletes at the NYC Marathon.
Had the good fortune to work with several of wonderful dancers from the Mark Morris Dance Company. Combined massage and the compression boots. Well received
5th Ave Mile. Many of the runners tried the compression boots for the first time. Positive feedback.
NYC Half Marathon. The compression boots were appreciated. Paula R. (women's world record holder in marathon) mentioned that she has been using mechanical compression boots for many years at a training center in France and really likes them. There is nothing not to like about how they work. Ryan H. (American record holder in the half marathon) is now using them in his training.
I am really trying to introduce them to the dance world.
Some of the other groups I have worked with recently:
AVP pro beach volleyball at Coney Island www.avp.com
