Bed Stuy Acupuncture & Massage Therapy — Local services in New York

I booked a 90 min massage at 1:30p (which ended early at 2:55p) and Marquis, while very professional and kind, seemed to lack the knowledge on how to work with a patient for what their muscles and body need that day. There was no awareness as to what areas needed more attention, when muscle knots were loosening, or when it was time to move onto a different area because the muscle wouldn’t allow anymore work to be done. He never spent enough time in one area to even get to the above mentioned, even when I would repeatedly ask. I understand if you have your system of working and I’m sorry to interrupt your flow, but c’mon man.

His use of deep pressure is great but he kept missing target muscle and would work on my bones and tendons rather than the muscle tissue. His movements felt completely random. Nothing had continuity. I asked him not to massage my lower back/kidney area because it was hurting and he didn't listen to that. I requested changes and areas of focus many times politely and clearly.

This place is amazing. I have been coming here for acupuncture and massage since 2018 to alleviate chronic pain due to herniated discs in my cervical spine.

I also strongly recommend Everett, who is a fantastic masseuse and gives really wonderful massages targeted wherever you need. Honestly, all the staff I've had the pleasure to have appointments with have been great. You can also pick up CBD here if you need any. I cannot...

I started coming here for chiropractic treatments, but it has slowly become my place for massage and acupuncture. Dr. Claire is a knowledgable and very gentle Chiropractor who is also a warm soul that cares about whole body health. My go to massage therapist is Angela, and I believe her hands have great healing powers that every time I see her, I walk away almost in a trance because I am so relaxed. For acupuncture, I'm seeing Anne, who really helped with shoulder pain and stiffness and congestion from allergies. Also, my roommate is a regular here and loves her practitioners as well. All this is to say, Bed Stuy Acupuncture & Massage Therapy has amazing practitioners who have really helped me with healing my body in different ways. I trust them and am grateful to have a place like this in the...
