Bodyworks DW Advanced Massage Therapy FiDi

This was my first time at Bodyworks so I dont know if this experience is standard practice or just a one-off. I arrived 5 min early to my 60 min appointment (4:45pm start time), and the therapist is waiting for the previous client to finish. No problem - by the time I get in, its 4:55. We get started at 5pm. However the massage ends promptly at 4:45pm (the original 1h time), which cut my 60 minute massage short by at least 15 minutes. It would have been fine if I felt like the therapist had taken care of all of my issues, but my legs and hips were still sore. To his credit, he did a great job taking care of my lower back.I dont mind paying for a great massage but it doesn’t seem right that it’s advertised as a 60 min massage but you only get 45 min max. I dont know if Id come back or recommend this particular therapist.

Incredible deep tissue somatic body work massage to address physical fatigue and emotional trauma. Yvonne is both professional, warm, and welcoming, but also incredibly knowledgeable about anatomy. She took the time to listen carefully to me and explain using the anatomy chart where she was going to focus/her technique. The treatment was targeted and very healing - one of the best massages Ive ever received. After the massage, she explained to me what she observed and what the treatment plan would be should I elect to return (which I am!). Recommended by my PT office and now I highly recommend as well! Also super convenient location if you work downtown. Easy online booking via app a plus too!

I had an incredible experience with Adee as my massage therapist. She has a remarkable gift; after one session, my sciatica and shoulder pain were significantly relieved. The massage felt like a religious experience. I never imagined such profound pain relief was possible from a massage. I’m speechless at the difference in my body after just one session. Everyone should experience this at least once to understand the true power of massage.

I have been going to Bodyworks DW FiDi location for a few months now and am very satisfied with the quality of work done so far by my massage therapist - Shiho. I have had neck and shoulder pain for years due to working with the computer for extended periods of time and for the first time I am seeing results, my muscle stiffness and range of motion have both improved. I would highly recommend Bodyworks DW.

Kelly was AMAZING. I am a former dancer and have been searching for a strong sports massage to help with lingering college injuries. This + a recent crick in my neck from sleeping wrong added to my intense pain yesterday. Kelly worked out my muscles and helped explain the anatomical details in the process. Such a helpful, informative, comforting experience. You are all are RIGHT across from my corporate office & I will definitely be a regular customer. Thank you!!!

I could not endorse this practice more. Having gone through four hip surgeries over the past three years, finding a good PT massage has been crucial to my recovery and general maintenance. Kyle is an outstanding practitioner and I wholeheartedly recommend Bodyworks DW!

I’ve had 5 sessions with Adee C at Bodyworks. She has been great every time! Adee is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and skilled. I would highly recommend her. Also, the booking (and rescheduling) process is very straightforward and user friendly. I had to reschedule several times due to scheduling conflicts. As long as it is more than 24 hours before the scheduled session, then it’s no big deal.

It was the best massage I have ever had. I came in because of intense pain in a trigger point in my shoulder. I walked out feeling like the pain never existed. I will absolutely be back!

Whenever Im in New York City for a weekend getaway I always schedule an advanced hour-long massage therapy session with Ann at the Bodyworks DWs Financial District location. Thats five visits within one year and I live in the Boston area. I look forward to my next visit. Thanks, James.

I have been going to Bodyworks DW for 5 years now. I have benefitted so much from every appointment. Today, I had an appointment with Shane. He is phenomenal; one of the best massages I’ve had.

I have been getting massages with Adee to address a shoulder injury and she is incredible! She is really able to find every knot and work through it in such a helpful way. I can already feel a difference after 2 massages. 100% recommend!!

Shiho & Carlos are two of my favourite therapists. The modalities used are always very effective. Best massage place in all NYC!

I’ve been here twice. Both of my therapists were amazing, Karl and Zahara each time. Massage is very much treated as therapeutic here and not a luxury service. Both of my therapists were thorough in my initial intake.During the massage the therapists proactively asked for my feedback and checked in to make sure I’m okay. Every time I’ve walked out I have felt so much better than when I walked in. I also like that they are flat rate, you don’t have to decide what type of massage, there are no random upgrades and you can choose to tip.Only one tiny tiny con is that it’s really confusing to get to in the building. It’s a maze and a bit disorienting. But the instructions they send over are very very thorough. So just follow those and give yourself plenty of time to get to your appointment.I love this place and will be back

Had the most amazing 90 minute prenatal massage with Zahra and to say it was pure bliss is an understatement!! She is seriously the best and alleviated all my aches and pains at 32 weeks. Her hands are like magic and she knows exactly where to focus. It was incredible and I felt like a new person when leaving. Cannot wait to go back for another massage 💆🏽‍♀️today!! Thank you, Zahra!!

It was phenomenon! David has a great understanding of the connection between mind and body, and knows how to apply it well. A true artist.

Mary was amazing, fixed my neck & shoulders and gave me lots of tips on how to prevent my muscles from getting this tight moving forward.

After hearing everyone at my office rave about what a miracle worker Rachel is I finally took the plunge and I’m so happy I did. I got there expecting a massage but it ended up being so much more. Rachel went over my history and watched me walk and do some other movements. Then she explained in detail what she saw (she even went over the anatomy for me) and proposed a thorough plan for what she would do during the session. The actual massage was incredible and I’ve never had anyone who was able to go as deeply into certain areas. Then she watched me walk again after I got off the table, gave me stretches to do at home, and even checked up on me a couple days later. After this experience I don’t think I can ever go get a massage anywhere else again!

Michelle was very attentive to my concerns and listened thoroughly. She quickly determined the source of the issue and spent the whole time alleviating the pain in the area, all while communicating with me and asking me questions to determine my comfort level as well as ensure we were targeting the correct spots. She also included some range of motion exercises into the session to evaluate the impact the massage was having on my affected areas. I walked out of there feeling much better than when I arrived; and though I am sore today, I am noticing a huge difference in my level of discomfort - she truly helped!

My session at DW was with Karl - a truly gifted massage therapist. As a massage therapist myself, I seek out and have received a lot of bodywork! My experience with Karl was exceptional. Karl went to great lengths to make sure I was comfortable throughout the session. His gentle strength was affirming and nurturing. My nervous system really quieted - - my body felt weightless on the table. I loved and appreciated my time with him, I cannot recommend him highly enough.

I wanted to say big thank you to William and DW team for the healing massage!I have a long lasting chronic pain that takes away a lot of mental and physical energy. Second day I am feeling more energized and refreshed.He is a skilled and strong therapist with a great vibe that makes him a wonderful massage provider 💫💆🏼‍♀️

Karl was amazing! No doubt he performed one of the top 5 massages I’ve ever received. I left Bodyworks feeling the tensions melting away from my body and my mind at ease- I was transported. Thanks again Karl!

Good location downtown. Karina, the massage therapist who took care of me was excellent.

This was my second session with Adee Chandally and I think I have found my go-to massage therapist, here in New York City. She always takes the time to listen to my specific concerns, ensuring that the session is tailored to all my aches with my long-term ambitions in mind.Adee seems to intuitively find every knot and tension in my body, working them out with precision and care, while creating an incredibly soothing and tranquil ambience. She also laughs at all my bad jokes, so +2 to that!After each massage, I feel like a new person. My muscles feel rejuvenated and Im able to hit the gym with added rigor while also focusing on yoga poses that make sense for my body type.Adees background as a certified yoga instructor definitely pays dividends far beyond any massage session could. I am able to apply her instruction well after each session.Her expertise, professionalism, and genuine care for me as a client makes her an exceptional practitioner. I cant wait for my next session with Adee, and I know that Ill be leaving feeling stronger!

I engaged in polite but genuine conversation with my masseuse Michelle. She was very nice, communicative about whats going on with my body, very honest and reassuring and helpful for future stretches and exercises I might need to work out my tenser muscles. Nothing was uncomfortable , I was at ease and feeling lighter as I left the studio. I can’t wait to go back! Thank you for all your help and no judgement.

Wonderful prenatal massage! Akiko was so fantastic at relieving my pains and aches from pregnancy. She acutely pointed out what posture I was doing that led to that pain. During the hour she focused specifically on my sciatica and after the session I had much less pain, and walked away knowing how to stretch and carry my body to lessen the pain.

Omer was absolutely incredible. Best massage I have ever gotten hands down

Im still a pretty new client (2 sessions) but ij 1 session Rachel was able to better diagnose and help communicate why I might be having the shoulder issues and pain I was experiencing better than a host of physical therapists, chiropractors, doctors (you name it!) could it. Every session so far has been absolutely intense (no sugar coating it) but after have felt like a whole new human with greater understanding of the mechanics behind my painHighly recommend!

I’ve worked with Akiko for many weeks and she has a genuinely gifted therapist who is responsive to feedback and remembers many things session to session.The other therapists I’ve worked with have been pretty underwhelming, by and large. Intake is limited (“why are you here?” With no explanation of how they work or even what type of style I’m used to or prefer) I am usually the one who has to provide feedback without the therapist checking in, and that feedback often feels like it falls flat (asking for more pressure, for example. I bet this job is taxing on people but if your bio as a therapist says you specialize in deep tissue or sports massage, why are you getting huffy with me with asking for more pressure on certain areas?).Also, I would point out that while the website makes it a point to say that pricing is all inclusive, this is ‘medical massage,’ and gratuities aren’t expected, they definitely are. So, just factor that in!The review for this place are tremendous but, in my humble opinion, not entirely warranted, especially if you are considering going out of your way to come here.

Very peaceful office space. I saw Marc who is communicative, professional, and overall wonderful. I’ll definitely be back!

Christopher provided amazing professional service - really listened to all the various issues I had going on and gave me a targeted, effective session.

Shiho is my therapist. So grateful for the incredibly therapeutic massages I have received from her. Each time after my massage I leave with a new body and a happier mind. Beneath her shy exterior is a highly gifted, brilliant, knowledgeable, caring and nurturing person. Bodyworks is very special place. God bless you all!

I’ve had many massages in my life and I can say this was one of the best! Zahra is a skilled therapist and healer. The staff was very accommodating as I made an error in my online booking and they offered me several other options. I highly recommend this hidden Fidi gem.

Have had the pleasure of working with Andrew multiple times now. As someone who takes my body and practice sincerely, I appreciate his knowledge and insight. Would highly recommend him! Especially if you want to understand what might be happening. Not just a quick massage.

Relaxing, calming ambiance. My technician Akiko was so thorough and addressed every pressure and tension point that I had (& some I didnt!) Never had a massage experience where I felt ‘healed’ hours afterwards. My posture is so much better & I felt immediately felt lighter when I left. I also want to call out that I appreciated there wasnt pressure to upsell a package or product, which is common in many spas. Left feeling like a whole person. Will definitely be returning.

For the first time since my lung surgery a year ago, I could feel my ribs. Also my lower back pain disappeared!

Overall, an amazing experience. My neck and shoulders have been tight for as long as I can remember, and this can cause lots of issues, including pain and headaches. After doing research and finding Bodyworks, I am really grateful to Christine for her thoughtful approach and treatment. She listened to my concerns, asked insightful questions, and before even massaging me, showed me other things I can to improve my neck tension (such as posture and breathing techniques). Her treatment was methodical, and she was careful to address all of my areas of concern, explaining what she was doing and why as she went. Its easy to leave a massage feeling happy and relaxed, but I also left this one feeling reassured and empowered. I cannot wait to go back for another session to continue addressing these issues. While I love a good spa day, this kind of massage is certainly so much more important to my overall health and wellness. Thank you Christine!

Had a great experience with Michele. Came in with back pain, she worked right through it. Havent felt any pain right after the massage, then it came back for a day and then disappeared for good (fingers crossed). Thank you!

I want to share a review about this place, hope that anybody with neck pain will see this. I am talking about car accident neck pains btw. I found this place on google and they take FSA card so I gave it a shot. I went in got paired up with Karl worked with him 3 times already, and I can tell you my neck pain has been better these last 2 months since 2012 when I had my accident. Honestly I had to write this review today cause I noticed for the first time in years I haven’t noticed my neck hurting or a headache cause I keep messing with my neck. I also noticed that I am not messing with my neck not even thinking about it! Thank you Karl and DW body works ! I want to cry cause of happiness of pain going away it is crazy thank you thank you so much !!!

I will definitely be rebooking for next month; I just have to figure out my calendar. This morning is the first time Ive gotten up without pain in more than a year. Andrew is a gem! I went there expecting a spa treatment and received a healing experience instead. Phenomenal! Thank you!

I had a great session with William. His massage was excellent and targeted areas really in need of work due to my heavy workout routine including Bjj, boxing and weight training. I will be back. Thanks!

Knowledgeable therapists that tailor each session to my needs. I have been worked on by Bryan, Andrew P, Momo, Will, Adee, Kelly, Rachel, Shiho and David W. Everyone really took the time to listen to what I was looking to accomplish and left feeling great. A great team!

Frank gave an EXCELLENT therapeutic sports massage. Michael is GIFTED from the gods as healer. The expert knowledge, passion and commitment of the owner David resonates throughout every interaction. They continue to exceeded my expectations!Looking forward to my next session.

Honestly, it was one of THE best massage therapy session that Ive ever had. Yes, I am sore but in the way that I know my body is healing. I am so grateful to have found your practice. Everyone was welcoming and helpful. I have nothing to say other than I will be back and keep up the wonderful work! PS - Christine is absolutely amazing. I went in feeling like I was hobbling and walked out upright. She is magical

Very happy to have found this place for pre-natal massage. Yvonne is a lovely, professional and skilled therapist.

I was referred to Rachel by two of my friends whom received medical massages by her and they had so many positive words to say. I agree! She helped me to feel safe and cared for. She understood what was going on for me based on my symptoms and helped me to open up my rib cage and breathe! The pain in my hamstrings is relieved and returned, but this time with less intensity. In addition to going to my doctors and getting more tests done to find out the cause of the issue, Rachel has given me some much needed relief. I have already scheduled my next session! Thank you so much! I look forward to receiving the follow up exercises and to having you work on me again!

I cant say enough good things about Bodyworks DW! I moved here from San Francisco and left my beloved massage therapist behind and was loosing hope in finding such a talent until I received a massage from David. Wow. These massages are intuitive, therapeutic and healing. There is a clear mastery of the body here with an understanding of the best way to utilize the time you have in your session to give you the most relief possible- love that. I received a great massage from Jae as well and I have no doubt that all the therapists at Bodyworks DW will deliver thoughtful, deep and healing bodywork. I highly recommend!Second Testimonial:Back again to praise the mad skills of Laura Sniper. She really gave me relief and I am very grateful! She is strong and intuitive and I am very happy to have found her. Thanks, Laura!!

I’ve gone to see Michael B. Twice in the past 3 months, and I’m going to see him again soon. He’s absolutely incredible. I feel completely comfortable and safe with him as a therapist. He seems to have a strong intuitive sense of where I’m holding tension and how misalignment might be developing in my body. He addresses my pain but also seems to address other areas that might be affected without me even realizing I need the work! Bodyworks DW is the most professional massage therapy clinic I’ve ever been to, and I no longer feel the need to look anywhere else. Thank you for the care!! ❤️

I kept getting Instagram ads about this place on my feed. One day my back pain was really flaring up. I remembered the name from IG and booked an appointment afterwork. An 830pm massage appointment is hard to come by so I was already very happy. I saw Frank and wow he is a true healer. I also recently start seeing Akiko because of scheduling and again, a true healer. The practitioners consult with you before you get on the table and really examine your body posture. Some even give exercises to do at home to aide in correcting your issues. I am a hairstylist and it really takes a toll on my body. This practice helps keeps me aligned and pain free.Do not hesitate on booking with them.

This is a top quality place. The massage therapists are extremely knowledgeable and professional. Bryan is fantastic for deep tissue/muscle tension release massage. They will also show you exercises to so at home to help with the lower back pain and psoas (hip flexor) muscle tension. Highly recommended!!

Karl is an extremely warm and conscientious practitioner. He paid careful attention to what I expressed as needing and offered more that he knew would have me feeling better. He and DW are just the amount of calm I needed after an extremely stressful few weeks.

Was a great experience. Great massage and Zahra was very informative and pro.

Had a session with William and was a true sports massage. Was exactly what I needed to work out tension. Definitely was painful (not because of him) but was one of the best feeling afterwards. Highly recommend.

I had the best bodywork session with William Rojas! Ive been a distance runner for over twenty years, and have recently developed on-and-off issues with my left posttib and calf. I’ve been to many (excellent) bodyworkers over the years— but William is by far the best. William expertly figured out the asymmetries causing the issue, did amazing therapeutic deep/soft tissue work, and showed me some at-home exercises to strengthen the relevant muscles. I highly recommend seeing William for all sports-related injuries!

Zahra gave me a fantastic massage! It was just what I needed, restoring and relaxing. Thanks very much, Zahra & BodyworksDW!

Had a massage with Kelly! She explained what was going on with my body and she really knew how to give me a good muscle release. Will definitely be coming back soon :)

Adee was professional, thorough and accommodating. I felt muscle relief instantly and continue to feel the benefits 24 hours later. I would highly recommend Adee to my peers and have already scheduled a follow up.

Andrew Pannullo really knows the body. Best neck and shoulder work Ive ever had. He really listened and then was able to pinpoint exactly where the problem areas were. Helped me tremendously!

My initial visit was a bit of a one off but I gave it another shot with a senior massage therapist and was extremely impressed. She loosened up my hips and I could feel a big difference in mobility and posture immediately following. Meghan was very thorough and attentive to all of the focus areas I noted. Would love to see her again!

Welcoming customer experience, extraordinarily professional practitioners!! I have spent years receiving massages and have often been left unsatisfied. My experience with the Bodyworks DW team was next level from start to finish--my warm and knowledgeable masseuse Alexon used several modalities to approach my particular challenges, carefully listening to the needs of my body throughout our session. It was truly a bespoke approach, and I felt his sincere interest in wanting to help me heal. I left feeling renewed -- and having already booked a return session for the following week :) If you are serious about a holistic approach to massage, run, dont walk to Bodyworks DW.

I wrenched my back and was in a lot of pain, could hardly move. Called Bodyworks and they saw me that day. I walked out of there 1000% better. I saw Germain and he was absolutely fantastic. He listen to me, went to work, and did an amazing job. Very personable and all around nice person as well. then he sent me a follow up email with a list of pointers, valuable info, etc. I am new to the area, but prior to this back home, i have seen many great massage therapists. I must say Germain is up there as one of the best! The overall vibe of Bodyworks is very chill as well, very inviting. I am instant regular now. thank you!

Had a great session with Lisa Moynihan. It was clear she was very knowledgeable about anatomy and muscle attachment points. She was able to work out the issues I was having in my back, neck and shoulders + gave me some great advice on prehab work and stretches I could do at home. Overall excellent service and company - Ill certainly be back and wouldnt hesitate to recommend her to anyone.

The best massage ever. William did an excellent job releasing some seriously built-up tension while increasing mobility. Afterwards I was so out of sorts I walked into a wrong train (don’t laugh too hard), but I felt like a whole new person. I will definitely go back.

After a 40hr marathon flight in economy my back was a mess. I hobbled in to see William for a 60min session. It was quite an extraordinary therapeutic massage - intense, targeted, painful, necessary, and has dramatically improved my recovery time. Thank you

Best massage I have ever received! Samora was my therapist, so kind, very knowledgeable and explained the reasons for my on-going neck issues. Samora was very firm in her approach, encouraging when it was uncomfortable and delivered a wonderful massage. Go see her, you wont regret it!

Excellent massage therapy and customer service. Best massage and treatment I have received in New York ( after several years of trying different places and treatments). I had an appointment with Laura and was extremely impressed!Highly professional, efficient and knowledge of the body. This is the first time that I truly felt that I was seeing an EXPERT and not just someone trying to sell me a service.Highly recommend and will be back.

I am so very grateful for Bodyworks DW and specifically for Christine. After a recent surgery I found myself with extensive scar tissue that was limiting range of motion in both of my arms. I had to take extended time off from work, and was very frustrated. Christine did an excellent job of piecing me back together. She is so skilled and perceptive. Her expertise guided her through various massage techniques that she felt my muscles and tissue needed to release, while still keeping the experience pleasant and relaxing. Im back at 100% and will certainly be adding Bodyworks DW to my self-care routine throughout the year. Total Gem!

What an amazing and pleasant surprise. The location has a wonderful vibe and my massage was perfect. The masseuse was strong and intuitive. I’ll definitely go back.

Last week I had a massage with shiho after injuring or straining my left hip abductor . After I left my left QL was looser and the left hip stopped aching . This was just one session. I’ve been living with a tilted pelvis for 7 years . It causes headaches , knee pain , and because of all this tightness I’m just chronically tired . I guess one problem at a time . I honestly believe if I spend about 6 more sessions with her I may end up cured . She’s pretty booked but she is so gentle and so caring . Her knowledge of the body is amazing . She gave me hope that I would get better . I’m getting a massage with David next and there is no doubt in my hand that I will be good hands . The therapist at body work dw are life savers . Honestly I started giving up on life but this place has given me a renewed sense of hope that I will someday soon be able to live a normal and pain free life .

All of my massages here are always amazing! Staff is super knowledgeable and very understanding as I have been late due to subway issues and don’t rush to finish.

Bodyworks is much more than massage therapy. Ive been working with Akiko for serveral months to address some chronic issues, and she has helped me change my posture and the way I walk through pre-massage evaluation combined with expert, highly targeted massage technique. The immediate effect is that the body/muscles feels better, but because Im working on my posture, due to her feedback, the chronic issues are also improving. Thank you!!

Ive pretty much been looking for someone like Rachel and Bodyworks DW for years. And as someone who has tried so many different types of bodywork (everything various Asian ones, to expansive fancy ones to more woo woo ones), let me tell you, if youre looking for bodywork - to fix pains, knots, old habits, etc. - come here. Even if it hasnt hit you yet that you need to come here, come here to treat your body before it really needs it. Preventative bodywork is just as important.My jaw/shoulder was bothering me more than usual one night and by some miracle, I came across Bodyworks DW and took advantage of the discounted first time 60min session. Rachel was the only one working that night and when I arrived, found out we know a lot of the same people because of her history with yoga and my working at a yoga studio.I wont tell you she miraculously fixed my pains in one session (anyone who tells you that is a quack), but she did lesson it and pinpoint a few areas I could work on to strengthen and further lesson the pain myself. I got homework too, which is amazing. She also encouraged me to do Pilates which...I dont know how I never took Pilates but it is the thing I have actually been looking for.So Ive seen her about 10 times now and...I cant tell you how neurotic I am about being balanced and I am totally comfortable telling Rachel things that I notice in my body. My imbalances arent totally noticeable unless you look for them, but because she has the eye for it, shell actually understand what I mean and in the nicest way (while still addressing my concerns) helps me understand that maybe Im focusing on the wrong thing. Shes even done work on my jaw that Ive never had done before and it is about the best thing EVER.I also have a thing about how I walk (long story involving pageant days) and I LOVE that Rachel has me walk for her (and also stand and bend and whatnot) before each session because its evident what parts of your body are compensating for other parts. And theres just a way that she looks at you while doing this that lets you know shes noticing things in fine detail.Shes also been so amazing recommending other people I may want to see in and out of New York, which shows she really cares on wanting to help me sort through all my little problems.I started at Fidi but based on Rachels schedule, have been to the midtown location as well. Theyre very similar.

I had anterior and posterior cervical surgery. After 2 major surgeries my life changed for the worst. Daily, I experienced neck, shoulder and trapezius muscle pain to name only some issues. Physical therapy, acupuncture, medications, etc., did not accomplish goal of long-term relief. In August 2020 I went to Bodyworks DW and encountered Lisa Moynihan a truly amazing and talented senior massage therapist. Lisa’s methodical treatment plan, attention to detail, commitment, accompanied with great personality restored normalcy in my life. I am truly grateful for all you have done and continue to do.

I had massage with Billy in this massage studio. My experience was terrible unprofessional masseur, have no idea about how to do deep tissue massage, strange behavior . I won’t look that it was his first day at work as I came to pay money for the session and expect certain quality.

My first session here was last fall. I had been feeling completely hopeless about the recovery of my ankles (for lots of different issues). The thing that really stands out is that I feel heard by the therapists which is more than I can say for the doctors I had been seen by for my pain... I was able to be a part of deciding how the session went. They really care!!! At this point I’ve worked with many different LMT’s at Bodyworks DW in both locations (they recently opened a Midtown location) and I have never once had a bad experience. This place is INCREDIBLE 🙌

I am proud and happy to report that after 5 sessions with David Weintraub, my chronic neck and back pain has been almost completely resolved. I feel as if I am literally 10 years younger. It was well worth the money I invested in my health, as physical therapy was doing NOTHING for me. He showed me ways to correct my posture and identified the root causes of my pain. Myofascial release WORKS! It is a science. David and his staff are practitioners that go above and beyond to provide EXCEPTIONAL service and results. LOVE THEM!!!!

I went to this office to be treated for a sore and stiff right leg which was impairing my walking and causing me major discomfort for several weeks. My massage therapist, Lisa Moynihan, was nothing short of a miracle worker! She listened patiently as I explained my symptoms, pinpointed the exact points along my leg which required treatment, and performed the most thorough and soothing massage Ive ever experienced. Within an hours time, I went from hobbling around to walking completely normally.Lisa succeeded where countless spa masseuses failed. Best of all, she never watched the clock and she graciously went past my allotted time. I would give her six stars if I could. Easily worth every penny.

David is an excellent massage therapist. As a chiropractor, I am really impressed with his knowledge of anatomy and how the body functions. I also like that he incorporates different techniques depending on the client and the problem at hand. I have been to David myself and have also referred several patients to him, all of whom thought he was terrific. I would particularly recommend him for people with stubborn or difficult to treat problems.

Zahra was absolutely amazing. My back pain completely gone. After a tough week, it was really best remedy.

This is an amazing establishment! Ive been coming here for over a year. As a business owner, this is my stress relief. Every time I come in, David assesses how my body is positioned and lets me know whats going on in my body and in turn how he is going to fix it. These guys are really top notch and know what they are doing! Id recommend BodyWorks to anyone! Ive even used my sessions as gifts to friends or girlfriends ;)I really love the fact that I feel like we are working toward a specific goal. I leave feeling a little taller and a lot more comfortable every time!

Michael was amazing! I hadnt had bodywork done in almost 2 years and was in desperate need of relief in my upper back and neck. Ive had a a lot of bodywork in the past and can say that this was the best Ive ever had. He also took the time to educate me on posture, stretches I could do, and pointed out things I had not noticed about my body before.

I recently went to see David Maine for the first time and I was extremely happy about my entire experience. I had been having uncomfortable pains in my upper back, shoulder blade areas and neck from working 40 + hours at my desk job. David focused on these areas and constantly made sure that I was okay and also gave me stretches to do at home after our session. I will definitely be making another appointment with David Maine very soon!

Had a 90 min session with Jess L. In just one session my body alignment improved and I learned new things to take with me to realign my spine on my own. I truly appreciate the efforts of this location’s therapists to teach and explain to their clients what’s going on in their body and ways to help outside of the office so that they can continue to improve without needing the therapist everyday.

I have some specific bodywork needs and spend a great deal of time looking for the right therapist. I must’ve tried every place in the city. DW Bodyworks is the best. Attentive, highly skilled and knowledgeable. And customer service is way better than competitors.

Ruth was amazing and Im feeling a huge difference in my lower body just 24 hour later. There was a quick evaluation and you could tell there was an expertise during the massage. Go here if you need a massage to fix something versus feel nice.

Ive had the opportunity to work with three of the therapists here and been impressed by them all. Kind, thoughtful, professional, and most of all, effective describes them all. The front office staff has also been excellent. Ive now referred multiple friends and colleagues and theyve been equally impressed.

I’ve had massages with two different therapists at Bodyworks and both times was great. They are very professional and knowledgeable. I felt like they really got at the root of my issues - I felt a lot of relief right after.

Amazing! After two days of extreme lower back pain I booked in for a one hour session at mid town. After a quick discussion with Christine she went to work on my upper back and shoulders. One hour later and I was able to walk back to my hotel and say good bye to my wife and spend 12+ hours on a plane in economy all pain free. Highly recommended!!

I originally went to see David for chronic back problems that no other PCP, therapist or chiropractor was able to correct. His work was successful in fixing my acute problems, but also has helped manage the longer-term issues. I have only great things to say about the the work that he has done and all of the Bodyworks team. Thank you.

I have been working with Christine and she is amazing! Her professionalism and knowledge will keep me coming back. My first time with her was during my training for the NY Marathon and I have picked back up. Highly recommend Bodyworks!

I came in for chronic lower back pain and left with significant improvement. Michael T was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to explain the reasoning behind the muscles that he targeted. He released several muscles that have been stressed for months, and I walked away with almost no pain. I will absolutely come back for further treatments!

Highly recommend Bodyworks. Ive been to many massage therapists over the years, and believe Ruth at Bodyworks to be one of the best in the business. As a competitive triathlete, I frequently come in with issues that need work and I always leave feeling far better than when I entered. Given Ruths expertise, its clear that Bodyworks cares immensely about having the best therapists in NYC. Again, I highly recommend.

I have been working with Bodyworks since the 2010 NYC marathon. David helped me profoundly with my running recovery and adjusting my running form. This is not massage experience for lightweights--he is going to work you over, and it may hurt badly while hes working on you, but afterwards you will feel like a new person.I was pregnant last year, and Ive found the experience incredibly uncomfortable, so I scheduled an appointment with Shiho for a prenatal massage. This was one of the BEST decisions I have made. My body was immediately more comfortable, and the effects lasted for about 14 days. I went back several more times during my pregnancy.After I gave birth, one of the first things I did was go to Shiho for a post-natal massage. She really helped to ease my recovery and adjust to the weight of my nursing breasts.

I have gotten several massages from David Weintraub, the owner of Bodyworks DW. I find David’s massages to be very relaxing and rejuvenating. He is very good at relieving tightness and tension, and his tips on how to maintain muscular suppleness have also been very helpful. The environment is clean with tasteful decor, and during the massage, ambient music adds to the relaxing atmosphere. I highly recommend David and Bodyworks DW.

Ive received deep tissue massage regularly for 20 years and I must say that Davids technique is on another level!!! He has a compassionate and intuitive understanding of the body and the emotions it holds. I highly recommend him for serious, deep rooted issues.

David is a miracle worker! Ive seen him several times over the past few years for various injuries, and every time I walk out of his massage room feeling renewed, rebalanced and healed. His knowledge of the anatomy of the body is incredibly in-depth, and he knows know to access each specific muscle in the most effective way. The last time I saw him, he unlocked tension and pain in my shoulder that had been there for about ten years. The relief lasted for a a good while.Not only that, David is a nice guy, professional and easy to talk to. HIs treatment space is serene and calming. I send friends and patients to him regularly, and they are always 100% pleased (or floored!) with the results. 5 stars all the way.

I went to see David for some hip pain I was experiencing, and after 2 sessions Im noticing that he is reorganizing my entire skeletal structure! My posture has completely changed and pain that Ive lived with for years is subsiding. Hes a master and I cant highly recommend highly him. David is the real deal!

Ann was amazing-- truly appreciated the thorough intake (my first visit), her previewing what she was going to target and how, her deep tissue technique, and then her patience in answering my questions/showing me helpful exercises after my massage. Would strongly recommend this studio and Ann to anyone suffering from chronic neck/back issues.

Had severe back pain for about a month. Came to bodyworks and Simon was absolutely fantastic, and after the first session i felt significantly better! He was methodical and explained the process in detail. Highly recommend !

Reasonable prices and great newcomer discount. Had a 60 min massage session with Kelly, she was very receptive to the reasons for my visit and asked all the right questions. I left feeling relieved and looking forward to another visit!

Bodyworks does amazing work! Lisa helped me get my legs back before the NYC marathon and helped loosen up tight muscles that have been a pain to roll.If youre looking to get bodywork done right by professionals who know how to address the aches and pains you may be dealing with, definitely check out Bodyworks DW. Its on the pricier side, but you pay for their expertise and ability to make you feel better.

Eli gave me a great massage a week after I ran the NYC marathon. He used eucalyptus lotion that calmed the tension and relieved a lot of the pressure. The studio is equipped to help with sport’s injuries and stress. Their prices are reasonable and I will definitely be back.

Michael B is the best massage therapist Ive ever seen in my life. Period. If youre an athlete, or just work out 6 days a week like I do, hell help you recover from and prevent injury. Highly recommended.

Sooooo relaxing. I had major shoulder, neck and lower back pain and after a 60 minute session I feel so much relief. The massage wasn’t painful but it really went deep into all the tightness. Definitely would return!

Bodyworks DW is where I go for bodywork that really works. Like everyone else I love massage but although they feel great, they rarely actually fix the pain in my low back. Bodyworks DW did. Its different than other massages Ive gotten because my therapist actually evaluated my body, figured out what was wrong and fixed it so that the pain didnt come back. The bottom line is if Ive got any actually issues in my body from to much time in the car or tweaking something at the gym, I go here to get it fixed.

While waiting for my surgery date I tried a friends inversion table a couple of weeks ago. I was on it for about 45 seconds, heard a loud and incredibly satisfying pop… I havent needed to take a pill since that night.I looked into Subluxated Vertebrae, which symptoms include: leg length difference, weak ankles and raised pelvis. You were dead on about my leg length difference and everything else. I am now virtually pain free, only some mild hip muscle discomfort , which, thanks to you feels much better. Im surprised with all of the X-rays and MRIs Ive had, none of my physicians recommended any massage and/or chiropractic therapy. Im likely canceling surgery since there is no more pain. Id like to follow up with you as soon as i can. Thank you for giving me real advice and results.

Today I had my first ever Thearpy Masage at the Maiden Lane location. It was very convenient. The employees were very welcoming and made you feel comfortable. The location was very clean. The therapist I had was very professional and respectful. Once completed I felt very relaxed and feeling less pain. Im definately returning in two weeks. Thank you. BODYWORKS!

Very professional and the therapist Evana was more than great! I came in for a prenatal massage and she knew exactly what she was doing. She hit every pressure point that I needed soothing on. I walked out of there feeling so much better. I highly recommend this place!

Adee was extremely polite and really understood how to address the issues I was having with my neck/back. You can tell she has a in depth knowledge of massage therapy and will be coming back for a follow up. Highly highly recommend her.

My experience at body works DW has been exceptional. Ive been worked on by Christine and Ive really reaped the benefits. She is very accommodating with my needs and after each session I feel like a new person!

As a teacher of the Alexander Technique, I have high standards for anyone who touches my body. Davids work meets my needs for sensitivity, gentleness, and kindness. I look forward eagerly to every session with him...and enjoy the profound results long after I get off his table. Highly recommended.

Davids massage work has left me feeling more present, relaxed and with less pain in my body after a session. Im also grateful for a deepening felt sense of my anatomical alignment and of more possibility for increased flexibility and range of motion as a result of my ongoing work with him.

After a 27 hour transit to get to NYC with four bulging discs, I was in a world of hurt starting a 6 week cross county trip. I made an appointment with Ruth, senior therapist on New Year’s Eve mind you!Best decision I made I practically pranced back to my hotel and spent the night dancing my heart out! I can not recommend Ruth and the team highly enough!!!

Where do I even begin? Well, last night I went and got a 90 min massage by David (the owner). It was life changing. A bit of a back story. LOL. Ive gone to chiropractors for YEARS, had massages here and there. And all those methods seemed to either make my issues worse or put a bandaid on it for the time being. I have scoliosis, tense neck, shoulders, pain in lower back, hips off, I can go on. Years of stress accumulated in the body. Im a mess. BUT not anymore, thanks to David. After one session, my body didnt want to stand the way it used to, sit the way Ive always (horrible sitting habits). And it felt good to BE in my body naturally. It was wild to see my body correct itself after years of bad habits and obviously -scoliosis stress that accumilated. I can go on and on, but he seriously is a miracle worker. And I cannot wait to go back in for further sessions. By the way I NEVER write reviews. EVER. Im the one that reads them. But after going in, I really had to write about this and get the word out there. Thanks again David. You rock.

Ruth has been my saving grace in helping me recover from a herniated disc injury. She has both a strong technical understanding of the body and an unspoken intuition and does very deep work! She is happy to hone in on your trouble area or provide a well balanced massage. Thanks Ruth!

My experience has been with Christine. She is a fantastic professional, recently qualified but with more awareness and passion for therapy than anyone I have met. She has been great to work with, for my chest and shoulder.

Receiving a massage from Bodyworks DW is a gift. I have had the pleasure of working with David and Victor and can only say thank you to the both of them for the relief they have provided! Recently, I worked with David and appreciate his professionalism and compassion for his clients as well as his keen ability for reading one’s body. I recommend Bodyworks DW to my friends and colleagues.

Myriah was fantastic! After only a few intro questions, she was able to cater the massage to meet my needs, and even recommended additional stretches for me at home.

Jae at Bodyworks is one of the best masseuses Ive ever had and I am an avid massage goer. The methods at Bodyworks are more holistic and focus on long term relief of chronic problems rather than short term feel good massages. I highly recommend!

Jae is great!Just a quick message to thank Jae for our session on Friday. I came to him with a very worrying muscular knee injury, 12 hours before I was meant to be running a 13 mile Tough Mudder race. I was struggling to walk before our session and despite the pain he put me though, I got through the event with no troubles whatsoever and I feel absolutely great now!Delighted with the decision to go and see him; I appreciate the quality of his service. Will highly recommend.

David is extremely knowledgeable in his field. I’ve already seen results from the work he’s done on me, and as a marathon runner, this is so important. He cares about the well-being of his clients, and is committed to improving their quality of life. He’s friendly and professional, and I recommend him to all of my friends and colleagues.

Adee at Bodyworks is a great massage therapist. She listens, responds and has been helpful in relieving my carpel tunnel pain and muscle tightness. I describe the experience as transportive.Conveniently located in FIDI, Adee and Bodyworks are an excellent choice.

Akiko was amazing ! Took her time analyzing my body posture and the treatment was targeted and effective. Thank you very much!!

Once I started going to Bodyworks regularly, I wondered how I ever got by without it. The whole team are professionals, they listen to what your body needs and work with you to treat it over time. I am constantly recommending them to everyone!

I came in with a lot of pain, and Kelly did such an amazing job. Clearly very well educated in the art and science of massage therapy. I left feeling so much better than when I arrived!

I get a lot of massages (sit way too much) and needed a massage ASAP, though I am from out of town. The reviews do not lie...this place is FANTASTIC! Ask for Megan, she was so good that I ran back the next morning for a second session and I feel better then I have in awhile.

DW Bodyworks has been very helpful over the years in helping me deal with chronic lower body pain.I have been working with Ruth for the last year and have had an excellent experience.Highly recommended

Ann was thorough and attentive throughout my entire visit. She took the time to ask about my injuries and what brought me in. And I had a wonderful massage that left me feeling refreshed. Will be going back!

I saw Shiho, and she was wonderful. Just by looking at me she could tell that I practice yoga, and also that one of my shoulders rests lower than the other (how can you tell?!). She was sweet and professional and just lovely. I felt like a million bucks when I left.

I was experiencing incredible back pain and have struggled for many years with tension. After the first 90minutes I already feel the benefits and have a longer term plan for healing. Excellent facilities. Extremely professional staff.

Shiho is like a revitalizing nutrient! Because of my poor posture and constant desk work, Ive had chronic abdominal and back discomfort for years. Shihos deep tissue approach is as if shes having a long, relaxing conversation with my entire body. I highly recommend Shiho with all my heart to anyone who is looking for a therapeutic holistic massage.

This is literally the best medical massage place in town. They are very knowledgeable and intuitive. All the therapist i’ve seen so far are super friendly. William Rojas is my favorite.

This is not you’re usual massage where someone rubs scented lotion on you and the goal is relaxation. The staff here knows what they’re doing and digs deep into sore muscles to target knots and tension and chronic pain. It literally is healing and makes a difference. Finally! A real massage!

I had a really wonderful experience here. They truly care about their clients and are willing to go above and beyond to make sure you’re taken care of. I have a lot of neck pain and they were able to help me feel so much better and give me coaching on what I can do at home to prevent the problem from returning.

Im a musician and was unable to play due to nerve pain in my wrist. As a last ditch attempt at avoiding surgery I went to David Weintraub for deep tissue work. He not only correctly diagnosed the issue, he corrected it in 2 sessions-- saving me thousands in lost income and medical bills, not to mention the after-effects of surgery...this man is simply amazing. 20 stars!

Mary knew exactly what methods to use to pin point the issues ive been dealing with for years. I left feeling amazing, and woke up feeling looser and energized

One of the best massage/bodyworks Ive ever had. Ive been a loyal customer for about two years and plan on continuing to be.

This was my first time here & I saw William Rojas. He was an incredible massage therapist, highly knowledgeable and skilled. I will be coming back and would recommend for anyone.

Therapist asked the right questions and got the root of the problem. He relieved my pain and gave me exercises for moving forward

I had a massage with Ann and it was amazing! She took the time to discuss what I was looking for out of the appointment and then delivered. Will absolutely be returning.

Convenient location close to main attractions and subway. Very nice studio, clean, quiet, relaxing, friendly and professional. Therapist was good, adapting the massage and the pressure to the needs of my body.

This review is for Meghan Krupka - very knowledgeable, attentive to detail, professional, and focused on exactly the joints and muscle groups that are most pressing for a performance athlete. I would recommend her enthusiastically.

Ive been coming to this location for a few years. The therapists are knowledgeable and professional. The massage treatments aim to help restore normal anatomy and improve range of motion.

Shiho was excellent. I walked in with a near-decade-old trauma, crying and rude, and she helpfully and patiently answered my questions. I am not sure how Ill feel body-wise tomorrow (probably better!) but Im grateful for Shihos support and expertise.

Christine had a really advanced understanding of the body, got my physical issues immediately and came up with a plan that she communicated to me for buy-in which I really appreciated. The atmosphere has an earthy healing energy as well.

William Rojas is THE best masseuse I’ve ever been to. Incredibly knowledgeable about the body. Don’t walk, run!

Great services, customer service, and the staff is very friendly. I highly recommend Bodyworks DW. I booked a deep tissue massage with Ann and it met my expectations and then some. I can’t say enough about their services.

Im not sure whether I was in Midtown or the Financial District, as I was only visiting NY, but Germaine was excellent -- not only addressing my rotator cuff issue, but doing so with a sense of medicine and biology Ive rarely seen in a therapist. I came out feeling better, and smarter about my condition. He made a difference, and I will be back when in NY again. Many thanks!

I was your client this summer and you saved my life! After my sessions with you I didn’t have back pain for months! I have had this problem since I was 7 years old, tried physical therapy, swimming, yoga and visited different doctors. So big Thank you for that…

Shiho is one of the best therapist I’ve ever had. She is great and very professional. Highly recommend

Simon solved my lower back problems within a few sessions. I highly recommend him to work out deep rooted problems in a short amount of time. A+

Andrew helped to significantly relieve the pain, was very personable and took the time to understand my issues.

Cold, impersonal staff and massage therapist didn’t not perform the prescribed treatment.

Very knowledgeable staff, warm and efficient welcome. Felt really good after treatment. Clean and professional. They take the time to formulate an individual experience and plan.

To David Weintraub:Thanks so much for last nights session.You are truly such a skilled practitioner and Im grateful to have found you.Im looking forward to working with you to continue to discover the capabilities of my diaphragm! :)

Felt more balanced in my after the first session. I also learned a lot about my body and how old injuries are effecting my posture now. Looking forward to my future sessions!

Nice spot. Good therapist there.

Andrew is another awesome therapist I saw this past weekend who was super knowledgeable and helpful

Had a fantastic appointment with Ruth! I learned so much about my body and feel great. Looking forward to my next appointment.

Excellent message! Best place in NYC. I will highly recommend anyone looking for deep tissue massage. Very pleased .

They constantly ask you to move your appointments but then refuse to move yours without charging horrendous fees

Ive worked with many people over the years on chronic back/neck pain and old sports injuries and David is the only one that has made a real difference in eliminating my pain, reversing my injuries and giving me lasting increases in flexibility.

Great appointment with Jess. She listens and really achieved more in one session that I did in months of physical therapy.

Excellent massage. Just ran a half marathon and exactly what I needed! received good advice on how to recover, too. Thank you Germain!

Mike was awesome. He really did some major medical work / adjustments on my back and corrected long time pain I was previously having. Thank you!

We are in the process of moving after living in our house 33 years. You can imagine what that does to aging muscles and tendons. David certainly lessened the impact.

Really excellent & skilled massage therapists. Highly recommend for athletes (professional or not); dancers, New Yorkers, desk-workers.

Hands down the best massage in New York City. Over the last 10 years Ive been to dozens of studios. Omer is the best.

Excellent massage therapy. I’ve had work done by four different therapists (for scheduling reasons) and they’ve all done a great job.

Excellent! Would 100% recommend to friends. Massage is always tailored so well. Book now!

Highly professional staff and very clean facilitiesMassage was fantastic and really helped to loosen up tight knots

Went in feeling in extreme pain in my neck area due to stress from my sons hospitalization and surgery. Left feeling great!

Beautiful quiet space. Bryan is a skilled therapist and I feel so good. Will definitely be back.

Nice facilities and great massage. Very attentive and understanding therapist

Alexon was great - knowledgable, friendly and has really helped a musucular back injury I sustained. Thanks and see you next week!

Great massage by Bryan, very professional and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend to anyone searching for a therapeutic massage

Massage was stellar. Really helped with some back & neck issues. Very knowledgable staff. Cant wait to go back.

Excellent massage with a very experienced therapist. I was very impressed. I do feel much better!

Lisa did better for me than half a dozen chiropractors--cant recommend enough.

I love the experience of being in NY and feelLike Im on a wellness vacation. Each visit I leave being back to my best self.

Logan is great, he takes the time to understand whats wrong with you and makes sure that your issues are resolved when you leave.

Dave Weintraub was attentive to my specific issues and his massages were targeted and effective. He helped me greatly.

Shiho is a great masseuse and and a wonderful person.

Best massage I ever had! Been having chronic pain for awhile and this is a life saver!!

Ruth was incredible!!! Great communication, perfect pressure, awesome massage. THANK YOU!!!!

David and his team are truly gifted massage therapists! and their location right in union square is super convienant

I highly recommend it! It’s a very relaxing and at the same time professional and therapeutic massage.

Amy is phenomenal. Great location as well.

Nothing like a Spa massage at all.....but this was the first time i woke up without swelling in my ankle.

Love the energy of the space, friendly staff and massage with Christine has really helped my migraines.

Helped, only two appts as from out of town but was able to loosen some deep tissue.

Excellent service. Professional environment and relaxing.

Adee is amazing!

Amazing prenatal massage with Amanda

The treatment was ok nothing outstanding.

Particularly knowledgeable. Whenever there’s a muscular problem it’s the place to go!

Outstanding service and very skilled massage therapist.

Very relaxing and excellent massage. Thanks Jason!

Its the best thing I have ever done for my body!

Wonderful place!!! The therapist really know what they are doing!!!!
