I received this treatment from Gregory last week. Still thinking about it every day since. WOW! I went in with some serious trouble with my back and when I came out I was ready to go back to my normal activity without any shooting pain. Not only is Gregory's 21 years of experience immediately apparent even while he explains what one might anticipate during and after the session, this gentle, soft spoken yet powerful man really comes through with the bodywork.

Luis has always gone above and beyond and has taken such good care of me during pregnancy and post-partum. He has been patient when I've been late and has given me extra time at points. He was there for me when my dad died, when my in-laws were in town, when my back was so sore from breastfeeding. He suggests stretches and life hacks to help feel more comfortable. Whenever someone asks where to get a massage in Manhattan, I send them to him! As a bonus - the rates are very reasonable (ESPECIALLY with a membership) and there is often last-minute availability, which makes it so much easier to fit in a massage around a...
