Massage Therapy

I feel your pain.

The patterns and stresses of life can accumulate and cause tension, strain, and discomfort. Those physical distortions and mental distractions can prevent you from being present in your body and functioning fully in the moment. 

Focused and informed therapeutic touch will leave you better equipped to move back into you body and out into your life. 

With an open dialogue and appropriate technique, I work to positively impact your body, mind, and mood as well as your ability to function fully and with presence.

What Massage Clients Say

  • Tim Goebel, New York

    “As a former elite athlete and Olympian, I have worked with dozens of massage therapists over the years. Buddy is definitely one of the best I have worked with.

    He does a great job of tailoring the massage to what problem areas I need work on that day, and each session is very well customized. Best of all he’s always in a good mood and exudes positive energy. I always look forward to my monthly session with him!”

  • Keith W., New York

    “Buddy is an extraordinarily talented massage therapist who translates his knowledge of sports medicine and years of professional dance into tactical therapeutic massage.

    Through frequent weight training, running, and long-haul work travel my body gets uncomfortably tight. His warm personality and sincere joy in his practice of massage therapy clearly show when you’re on his table (or chair). Whether it’s tightness from fitness or flying, Buddy is able to work out any discomforts I’m feeling while consciously ensuring I’m not in too much pain. Thank you again, Buddy!”

  • Miguel, New York

    “Amongst all the therapists I’ve seen over the years, Buddy has been the one with whom I have built the strongest relationship.

    Buddy understands my needs and preferences as a client and adjusts constantly with non-verbal cues. I jokingly say to him I have a bit of Stockholm syndrome about going to see him since I like very deep work and I keep coming back. Over several years of working with Buddy, his work has improved my overall quality of life, and I just enjoy his company.”

  • Kurt Brown, New York

    “I’ve been seeing massage therapists, in varying modalities, for three decades now, and Buddy in the top three of the hundreds I’ve experienced.

    His own training in bodywork is both broad and deep, and his ability to articulate that experience, with his hands, and with his instruction, is formidable. He’s an amazing teacher who has been instrumental in helping me develop my own non-professional practice.

    You don’t have to be a student, just a grateful client, to know that a session with Buddy is one of life’s gifts that is worth making time for.”

  • KLM, New York

    “Buddy is simply the best.

    Of all the massage therapists I’ve come across (both in my 12+ years at Google and in spas/resorts, etc) he’s the one I prefer the most. Not only does he give amazing massages (tailoring style and pressure as requested), he also has a deep understanding of anatomy/physiology and consistently helps me address physical pains/issues I’m having. #highlyrecommend”

I Feel Your Pain

With a background as a dancer and manual therapist, and personal experience with surgery, I know pain and discomfort well. They’re your body's critical alarm, cutting through your thoughts, disrupting your day, demanding your attention.

discomfort is designed to get Your attention in a big way

While discomfort can stem from injury, it can also arise from overuse, inefficient alignment, or persistent holding patterns. Your body, unaware of imminent threat, simply flags dysfunction or inefficiency with the same symptom: discomfort.

massage can help reduce restriction and cultivate comfort

When your body begins to crave so much of your attention, you have less to devote to the rest of your life. And let’s be honest, you need that all of that energy you busy, beautiful human you.

Massage offers me the opportunity to step back into my body

Whether applied in just one area or to the whole body, whether deep or superficial, whether tailored to a specific condition or just to feel good and anywhere in between, massage can help. 

And sometimes, it just feels good

Focused and informed therapeutic touch will leave you better equipped to move back into your body and out into your life. With an open dialogue and appropriate technique, I work to positively impact your body, mind, and mood as well as your ability to function fully and with presence.

I look forward to working with you,
Buddy
