Eastside Massage Therapy — Local services in New York

I am a former basketball player who still suffers from Tendinitis in my knees and a lot of sore muscles that came with playing basketball. First, I was very trilled to find out that Eastside Massage Therapy has many massage therapists who deals with athletes. This gave me a sense of relief that I would be dealing with a lot of professionals who can tailor a massage based on the feedback I gave. I worked with Inna the first time I came to Eastside Massage Therapy. My experience with her was amazing because from the second she started the massage till the end of the massage, I felt more relaxed and I started to feel those tight muscles I had was becoming more loose. To be honest, if Inna never had another appointment right after me I would have done two hours instead of one. Inna's technique was so amazing and it was just what my body needed after all the years of physical pain that I faced while playing basketball. The type of massage that Inna used was a mixture between Trigger Point Massage, Deep tissue, and of course a relaxing Swedish massage. I honestly felt that I was on cloud nine and I did not want to leave this feeling.

The next massage Therapist I had at Eastside Massage Therapy was Bair (Male therapist). Bair was a professional and I enjoyed his Sports/ Deep Tissue Massage that I received from him. I loved the fact that Bair was a former athlete who understands the pain that we athletes go through. I would recommend both Inna and Bair for anyone that wants to get a good massage. Also, be on the lookout for another Massage therapist named Steve who I was told that he was wonderful by several of friends. I LOVE EASTSIDE MASSAGE THERAPIST AND I WOULD RECCOMMEND IT...

The first time I booked my fiancé’s appointment it went great. He arrived early and had to wait 10-15 minutes after his appointment time and receive an amazing deep tissue massage for 1 hr. So no complaint even though he waited a few minutes.

However, the second time I booked his appointment, he was arriving late when customer service called him and said his start time was 1:45 and when he arrives whatever minutes he missed would be deducted from his massage. He said he understood but do they have a 10- 15 minute window since thats how long he waited last time and did not complain. The receptionist responded “that’s our policy” and he responded “well that’s not a fair policy” and she proceeded to say “well that’s the policy and we’ll see you when you arrive” and hung up.

When he arrived and was done with his massage (which wasn’t good compared to the last time), the receptionist told him the amount and he said there’s a card on file which he placed there before he even arrived to his FIRST appointment. The receptionist’s manager or supervisor was walking by and said “no she needs to see a physical card”. Now I already found it RUDE how the receptionist spoke to him on the phone but for hm to be singled out to have a physical card when there was ALREADY a card on file before his first appointment and they charged it? Also, this was a white establishment where he was the only Tall and Black man with an accent. I was already apprehensive about him going there but now it’s...

I just left my second massage at Eastside with Allysia and holy wow I feel amazing. I've felt like a sack of jello after both sessions, in the best possible way. Not only does Allysia reach spots I never knew were sources of tension, but she also freely offers knowledge throughout the session to help me feel better in the interim between massages. She even took the time after my massage to show me stretches I can do daily to help with my problem areas. She also made sure to check in with me verbally throughout the session to help locate the exact spots that needed more attention. The front desk staff is lovely, the facilities are clean and quiet and relaxing. My next session is booked and I'm never going back to suffering through my back pain again. I'm in love, thank you Allysia...
