1. What type of sessions do you do and what should I expect?

I do two different types:

1) Swedish/Deep Tissue/BodyWork uses Effleurage (long gliding strokes, Petrissage (medium-depth strokes), Friction (deep tissue strokes), stretching, pressure points and various techniques that I have developed over time and with experience. This type of work focuses on the whole body, including soft tissue and muscles. Although the majority of the session is Swedish & Deep Tissue, I do add a little of Shiatsu, Thai Massage, Reflexology and Reiki. It is very focused, strong and firm (which can be adjusted according to individuals), but at the same time feels very relaxing and great to the touch. A much lighter type of BodyWork can be done if requested. Sessions are 1 hour($90) or 90 minutes($120).

2) Foot Reflexology is an ancient practice of working specific pressure points using the thumb and fingers on the feet, which correspond to each organ, gland and structure of the human body, which helps to reduce tension, provide relaxation and enhance the natural healing abilities of the body and keep it in balance. Sessions are 1 hour($90). IN-CALLS only.

***I will do outcalls to part of Manhattan & Queens ONLY if you have a massage table. Add $20 and up to above rates depending on your location.

When you enter my place of business, I will talk with you about your health and any problems you may have, ask you to undress, if receiving Swedish/Deep Tissue Bodywork (a towel/sheet is available, but you can be nude if you prefer) and lay face down on the table. If receiving Foot Reflexology you only remove your shoes and socks and lay face up on the table. I ask clients not to move around and lay still and concentrate on their breathing for the best effect. I do not engage in conversation during the session, this is your time to relax and I need to concentrate on you. Should something bother you it is fine to let me know. You will have time to carry on conversation before and after the session.

2. What are the benefits of BodyWork & Foot Reflexology?

The main purpose of BodyWork is to help you relax and ease stress within your body & mind, which in turn can help you have a good night's rest. In addition BodyWork can also ease sore muscles and make the muscles feel good. BodyWork also maximizes the benefits of exercise by increasing circulation which brings oxygen & nutrient rich blood to the muscle tissues to promote recovery and growth. At the same time it flushes out lactic acid that builds up naturally during exercise and creates the "aches and pains" that people talk about. BodyWork can reduce the chances of being injured by relaxing the muscles. Foot Reflexology helps to relieve stress, encourage deep relaxation, improve circulation, cleanse the body of toxins, revitalizes energy and balances the whole body system.

3. What areas of the body do you work?

With Swedish/Deep Tissue BodyWork, back, shoulders, neck, buttocks, legs/thighs, calves, chest, abdomen, arms, hands, feet, face, unless told otherwise. With Foot Reflexolgy only the feet are worked on.

4. Is the session done on a table?

Yes, a full size table is used for both BodyWork & Foot Reflexology.

5. What are your hours and and how far in advance should I make an appointment?

Hours are Monday thru Friday (1pm-10pm), Saturday & Sunday (hours vary). Last appointments are either 8:30pm or 9:00pm. Due to my schedule, it is best to schedule a day in advance or at least early in the day for same day appointments. To make an appointment call me at 212-946-5688.(no calls between 11pm and 7am). I will not return any beeper or pager numbers. All appointments are to be made by phone, not email. You can send an email, but to confirm the appointment you must call me at 212-946-5688. Also my time is as valuable as yours, so please be on time.

6. Is there any one you will not work on?

I do not work on anyone with contagious skin or foot conditions (poison ivy, planters warts, etc). I will not work on anyone with a serious health problem who have not consulted with their doctor first. For Swedish/Deep Tissue BodyWork, I do not work on individuals over 230 lbs (unless height/weight are in proportion). I also will not work on anyone who is not hygienically clean. Please make sure that you are showered and clean before coming to me. If for some reason (coming from work,etc.) you are not able to shower, my place has a shower for your convenience.
