Therapeutic Touch by Art

From the moment we stepped into Brian and Art’s space, we knew we were in for a quality couples massage experience. The room was quiet and thoughtfully set up, with just the right balance of warmth and calm. We were each on our own table, side by side, and though the massages were separate, the atmosphere they created made it feel like a shared experience — deeply personal, but connected.
There was no rush, no performance — just genuine care, skill, and attention. By the end, we felt unburdened and fully recharged, as if someone had quietly turned down the volume on the outside world. We’ve had couples massages before, but few have left such a lasting impression. Brian and Art offer something really exceptional.

Just wow. I’ve had four-hand massage before, but what Brian and Artem can do with their hands is, in a word, magic.
From the moment I walked in, the space felt incredibly welcoming — calm lighting, soothing music, and a perfectly comfortable temperature.
Brian and Artem were both highly professional and intuitive in their approach. Their synchronized movements were seamless, creating an incredibly balanced and immersive experience. They checked in just the right amount, ensuring the temperature, pressure and technique were perfect without breaking the flow of the session. You can tell they’ve been doing this for a while — it truly felt like they were completely in sync, making the massage feel like one continuous, deeply relaxing experience rather than two separate therapists working at once.
By the end of the session I left feeling lighter, more refreshed, and completely at ease. If you’re looking for an indulgent and expert massage, Brian and Artem are the perfect duo. I know I’ll be back!

Art knows what he’s doing and I can’t wait to come back. I had neck pain for the past several days so I thought I’d give massage a try. I’ve tried other services here but found it to be hit or miss. I messaged Art to set up a session that same day and he was very accommodating and professional, always a good first sign. When I got there I found a very nice apartment and a very cozy massage room. I especially liked the heated table feature and the hot towel compress. Art spent a majority of the time working my neck (my request) but still made time for the rest of my body. (Honestly, I wish I booked a longer session!) My neck felt better right away and I was pain free the next day. I highly recommend booking a session with Art. I know I’ll be coming back for more!

I used to take massages just to work on tight muscles. Artem has taught me that massage is so much more.

I don’t know how he does it. (Hint: It may be about the person he is, not just his craft).

With Artem, the experience is transforming. In fact I find myself in a trance for most of it. My body and mind are clear, so much so that I could not force a distracting thought to interrupt even if I tried.

So if you want someone to just work out muscle kinks, I’d say any street-side parlor might do.

But, if you want to experience something truly amazing, I invite you to reserve time with Artem, and just let go. If you are willing (and able), Artem will provide what at least for me, is something I’ve never experienced anywhere else.

I had my first massage with Art today and it was superb. I couldn’t believe how quickly the time passed. I am training for a marathon and do strength training, and had just completed a 22 mile run a few days before I visited Art. I left his studio feeling like a new man: relaxed, soothed, restored. His relaxed, friendly manner put me at ease and the environment in his studio with its lighting, music, and aromatherapy helped me lose myself in the massage. I will certainly be returning to Art regularly after tough runs and work outs.

There’s something about Artem that is exceptional. I could tell from our first interaction, and now, with a half-dozen or so massage sessions complete, I know it.

His unique gifts are being gentle, and firm. Strong, and sensitive. Attuned, and complete. I walk away from his table healed - both body and mind.

Artem’s bodywork is more than I bargained for the first time, where I just wanted (and expected) someone to work out some kinks in my lower back. This is totally different.

If you’re looking for something special, this is your man. Don’t expect anything less than a professional, thoughtful, and refreshing experience in the hands of a magician.

I wish I lived closer, because if I did this would be a weekly pilgrimage. On a scale of 1 to 10, Artem is a 50 in my book.

I heard Artem was good, but I didn’t know how good! Being a massage therapist myself, I am picky on my masseurs and Artem did more than meet my expectations! He is thorough, attentive, healing, as well as strong and intentional in his massage! It’s one of the better ones I have had in a long time and I highly reccomend him! He knows how to let you relax but also gets in all the places that need work! Thanks Artem! I WILL be back!

Hi Artem,

Thank you, thank you, thank you!! I’m really feeling much better after what I hope will the the first of many sessions!

Let me just first say wow, full stop. My experience with Art was so much more than I had expected. I don’t often go for massage as I have a fairly busy schedule, but I’m so glad I reached out to him!

I’d been dealing with sporadic back pain — sometimes lower back, sometimes shoulders — and knew it was time to see a skilled masseur. It didn’t hurt that Art is very easy on the eyes (smile).

From the time I first contacted him Art was nothing but professional, courteous, and organized. The studio is in a doorman building on a very safe street and was very well kept and clean. Art really went the extra mile to create a soothing and relaxing atmosphere, from subdued lighting to ambient music and aromatherapy during the massage. I really liked that he seemed to take his cues on talking from me, and as I prefer a silent massage to help relax. At the same time, he was very engaging to chat with both before and after, so I expect he would be happy to chat during the massage if that is your preference.

The massage itself was very professional and effective, and I was glad Art recommended the 90-minute session. That was just enough time for him to get everywhere he needed to, including the tense muscles around and under my shoulder blades. He obviously knows his way around different muscle groups, quickly zeroing in on the problem spots. I’ll definitely be scheduling follow-up sessions with him!
