Chris delivers one of the most powerfully effective deep tissue massages I’ve ever had. I’ve been seeing him on and off for more than a decade. I recently returned for a 90-minute session and was reminded how extraordinarily talented and genuinely caring he is. His massage is both strong and soothing. His knowing hands seem to flow effortlessly, connecting one body part to the next, finding muscles and tight spots you didn’t know you had and gradually coaxing them to open and loosen. The Thai stretching he incorporates is nothing short of exquisite! His years of experience and expert training are clearly evident in the way he plays the human body. If you’re in need of a REAL massage, you have to give Chris a try. He’s in a league of his own. You’ll leave feeling relaxed, restored and ready to face the world again.

“I have seen Chris over many years, and It is always a treat to see him for excellent massage! As a someone who is formally trained, Chris has expert knowledge of the human body, and his years of experience have also given him a very intuitive sense of where to focus once you’re on his table. His strong and confident hands are always wonderful to experience. His clean and comfortable studio is super conveniently located. Chris is super friendly and fun, and he always makes me feel welcome and cared for. Do yourself a favor, and see him soon!”

It was amazing to work with you yesterday and see that you remain the BEST massage therapist in New York --without question! As a former LMT I require and demand a lot of a massage and you deliver that and more. I am glad to be back in New York and even more glad to work with you again. My body and I feel incredible today!

Just had the pleasure of getting a second massage from Chris, and was just as pleased the experience as last time. Over the years, Chris has developed his own technique, resulting in an invigorating, full body massage that was both therapeutic and relaxing. I would recommend session without hesitation.

Incomparable. I'm amazed by Chris' massage technique — fluid yet deep strokes that made me melt into the table, and pinpoint precision when working on pressure points. He easily located the source of tension and tightness I wasn't even aware I had. When he finished, I think I felt an inch taller.
I wish I could make this a weekly indulgence, but will definitely recommend to my friends

Chris is amazing, relaxed me fully, made me feel rejuvenated with his strong hands, and he provided a truly wonderful full body massage. I am addicted. Highly recommended for his excellent approach, demeanor, professionalism, and gracious hospitality.

I have now gone to Chris multiple times for a massage. Every time I walk out of there I feel terrific! He is professionally trained/experienced, talented, strong and friendly. The perfect combo. You can take a shower at the end in a clean bathroom and a fresh towel.
