REVIEWS for my Bodywork services

Well into my 80's with scoliosis and beginning to feel muscle effects, I had my first appointment with Jon today. For sure, he knows what he is about, his touch is intuitive and experienced and his knowledge of anatomy is solid. My goal is to glide into my 90's and maintain my capacity to move freely.

Amazing prenatal massage. Jon took the time to make sure I was comfortable and enjoying my massage. I can’t wait to return. Highly recommended to someone needing a massage. Thank you so much!

On above providing a good massage, Jon is not only a good listener and empathetic person, he is knowledgeable and provides a consultive service. Thank you.

Jon has been one of my favorite body workers for years. Whenever I am passing through New York, I have to set up time with him and would highly recommend him to anyone!

In the past few days since my appointment, I think I've told a hundred people that they need to see Jon. He is a wizard. My shoulder was in agony and I needed an emergency massage while waiting for doctor and physical therapy availability. After ONE session, I am almost back to being pain-free. I can't explain what he does other than to say you feel deeply, deeply cared for on his table. I bought a package. I cannot wait to go back.

Jon always knows exactly how to address issues I may be having. I walk out feeling like a new person everytime!

Jon creates a relaxing, supportive experience and has helped me better understand my body and how interconnected health is. He's very knowledgeable and I always learn something new!

It’s quite possible that one day I will write an entire book about the impact Jon has had on my life, but for now, a few words too few. I’ve been seeing Jon for a decade, give or take. Within that time I’ve changed doctors, apts, boros, careers, hair colors, etc., but not my bodywork wizard, Jon. I’m not sure I know anyone more knowledgeable in their field (breadth and depth!) and as eager in knowledge-acquisition as Jon. And I got a PhD in philosophy- I know nerds. (No offense, Jon, but you’re a nerd ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ). Anyway, more than his knowledge, it’s his intuition that makes him exceptional. He seems to know what I need most in terms of treatment (not just body location but pacing, pressure, etc.) just by my comportment on arriving and our 5min pre-work chat. And yet, he is so wise, caring and attentive that he always asks whether I think [x] will be supportive, so as not to push me past what I feel I can handle. Example: [CC arrives to session frazzled] Jon: “Do you think it would be helpful to start face-up with some breath work and cranial-sacral?” In short, if you want to foster a deeper connection with your body, relieve stress, and increase mind
