Overview

Hi, I’m Derek, an experienced professional with strong hands, an intuitive touch, and a client-centered approach to bodywork. Based in New York City.

I draw from a combination of Deep Tissue, Swedish and Reflexology techniques. Each session is tailored to your body’s unique needs and goals. Whether you’re seeking relief from chronic stress, recovery from physical activity, or simply time to unwind, I’ll customize your massage to provide the right balance of focused therapeutic work and deep relaxation.

Sessions take... place on a professional massage table in my private Hell’s Kitchen studio. My approach combines strong, attentive bodywork with an intuitive touch, creating a comfortable and intimate environment where you can settle into the experience. Pressure and technique are always tailored to your preferences, comfort level, and what feels best for your body.

I welcome gay, bi and straight clients of all experience levels and body types. Every session is approached with openness, respect, and an emphasis on helping you leave feeling relaxed, refreshed, and completely at ease.

Testimonials

Gathered by Derek from admiring massage clients to share with you.

Oct. 28, 2026 in New York, NY (in-studio)

Derek is fantastic! I visited his studio while in town and couldn’t have asked for a better massage experience. The atmosphere was peaceful, the pressure was perfect, and I left feeling completely relaxed and rejuvenated. Derek is warm, professional, and exactly as pictured. He truly works wonders for both body and mind. I’ll definitely be returning whenever I’m in town. Highly recommend! 10/10!

One of the best massages I've had in NYC. Derek took the time to understand exactly what I needed, and the pressure was perfect throughout. I left feeling completely relaxed. I'll definitely be booking again.

I wasn't sure what to expect, but I had a really great experience. Derek made me feel comfortable right away and gave an excellent massage. He checked in about the pressure, worked on the areas that were bothering me most, and I felt a huge difference afterward. I'll be booking again.

Derek is super handsome and gives a great massage. His space is warm and relaxing and I appreciated how he paid extra attention to my problem areas with just the right amount of pressure. Very professional and I will return.

Truly, one of the best massages I have ever received! Perfect blend of deep tissue and total relaxation. Derek is a total pro and also very friendly. The strongest hands I’ve had so far.

Incredible massage with Derek. I needed some deep tissue work, and it’s rare that I find a masseur who is able to apply the amount of pressure I really need. But Derek was great, very strong hands and touch. Will definitely book again!

Fantastic massage!! Derek took his time and made me feel comfortable and relaxed throughout. I had a lot of lower back pain, which Derek focused on and also the pressure was awesome as most other massages I’ve had have been too light. Derek was very friendly and look forward to another massage with him soon!
