NK Body Philosophy — Local services in New York

I've been a client of Nicole Kung for 7 years. I have a very demanding career , where I sit at a computer most of the day and I hold all my stress in my shoulders and jaw. As a result, I used to suffer from constant headaches, TMJ and shoulder tension. Nicole came highly recommended from a friend who told me she specializes in TMJ with intra-oral massage. The massage began by massaging the inside of my mouth. She carefully applied gentle pressure, focusing on the swollen areas to relieve the tension. The appointment lasted approximately one hour. I already noticed some improvement. The next day, I noticed my mouth felt much more loose and relaxed, something I hadn't felt in a year.

Not only is Nicole an expert at what she does, she always listens to what your needs are. It meant a lot that she took the time to educate and explain the process to me. It helped me to build a trust in Nicole as well as intra-oral massage as a therapeutic treatment. I would recommend this therapy to anyone that is diagnosed with TMJ. At the end of the session she will give you gentle suggestions on what to do while you're at work and home so you can further heal your body when not in session. Nicole really cares about her clients and is so passionate about massage and healing.

After 7 years of working with Nicole, I haven't had a bout of TMJ in 4 years and my whole body feels so balanced. I now go to Nicole for bi-weekly relaxation and tune-ups. Life wouldn't be the same without NICOLE! If you don't have your health...you don't have anything.

MUST BOOK! Bear with me as I praise NKBP to hell and high water about my experience(s). I had never heard of this type of massage therapy before and it was by a happy accident I was able to model for a demo session. Nikki worked on me for about 20-30 minutes and my legs felt incredibly light, it was an interesting feeling to float and carry myself around. After that I decided to book a session, I did 1.5 hours but the following sessions were 2 hours and I’d take 4 if I could. After the first session the tendonitis I was suffering from in my elbows and knees dissolved. Completely gone and has not returned. This was months ago! I had no idea tendonitis can be cured. I ruptured my bursas several years ago and since I haven’t been able to lift properly without a lot of pain. Now I have no issues in my elbows or knees. In addition to that I had hip surgery (labrum tear) and it was incredibly tight, thinking I just needed to stretch more. Nope, just the fascia all bundled up and once released, boom, full mobility in my leg! Incredible. I’ve seen her about 4 times now and my body can move at full range without pain. She’s healed parts of me I didn’t know I needed. For background I suffer from connective tissue disorder and as an active person, this is immensely helpful. I’ve tried other Myofascial therapist but nothing compares. From various states too. They do your whole body in an hour or so, hit the same spots as everyone else and it’s nice but nowhere near the same feeling or healing afterwards. She’s specialized in this field, trailblazing a new way to heal. Please please book, it’s worth...

I’ve been working with Nicole for almost two years, seeing her for myofascial massages and personal training and highly recommend her for both. If you have any ongoing ailments, Nicole is your answer - her knowledge of the body is truly impressive. I began seeing Nicole for myofascial massages for chronic neck pain and headaches. I had tried myofascia and acupuncture before which had worked relatively well for me in the past. A few weeks in with Nicole I was once again feeling some relief, but Nicole took it a step further and helped me understand how much I had been neglecting my own health and that if I wanted to really treat my neck pain that I needed to address the root of the problem with improved mobility, flexibility, and strength training to counteract the affects of sitting behind a computer for 60+ hours/week. She was right, I had once been very athletic and enjoyed all sorts of activities including running to balance me mentally and physically but it had been years since I had a consistent work out regiment and could no longer run without significant pain on top of daily neck and back pain. Nicole helped me baby step back into a routine, starting with basic mobility and core strengthening and built upon that each week, always varying the workouts as needed. Even now with Covid, we connect via video to continue our weekly workouts and keep me accountable. Nicole has been a real life saver and highly recommend her to anyone dealing with any chronic pain. She has by far exceeded my...
