Engineers ought marvel at the design of our human body. Every cell in our body is a mini factory with full communication going on to carry out all its necessary processes. The bones which comprise our skeletons are loosely held in place by ligaments and tendons. Our bones move freely in to and, well, fortunately not so freely out of alignment when strong muscles pull on them. When there is an imbalance in the relationship between two or more muscles, that's when pain occurs and I am contacted. My name is Gary DeFilippo and I will consider it to be my privilege to be your chosen Orthopedic Massage, Medical Massage, Sport Massage and Rehabilitative Massage Therapy provider.

Thank you, Hanna for coming in and for your 5-star review
Thank you, Kathy, for coming in and for your wonderful five-star review. Thank you for mentioning that balanced muscles are essential to physical comfort. The body is like a suspension bridge. When the muscles are the same strength and length right to left side and front to back, the body feel ageless and moves freely. This can be done at any time for people of any age.
Thank you, Lynn, for coming in and for your five-star review. Sleep is essential to recovery. Very happy to hear that you are sleeping better.
Thank you, Todd for coming in before and after your races over the years, and thank you for your five-star review. An Orthopedic Massage is a pre- and post-event, as well as a medical treatment massage. How my treatments are different from other medical massages is my clients receive what they pay for. An hour massage means a 60 minute hour, and often a little more. I do that because the body needs to be relaxed, so they can sleep at night, in order to heal, to recover.
Thank you, Roger, for your 5-Star review. So glad that you enjoyed the experience and that you responded so well to it. To date, you are the largest and most muscular man I've worked on. So glad to have the opportunity. I look forward to your next session. I'll have to carb load that morning.
Thank you, Dion, for coming in and for your 5-star review. So glad that you were amazed by your massage experience. My goal is for everyone to be delightfully surprised 4-7 times from first to initial contact to follow up contact.
Thank you, Kennedy for the 5-star review! It has been really great helping you out of your pain and restoring your posture. When Kennedy came in, she opted for the Orthopedic Massage upgrade in order to return her body to Anatomical Position (for optimal comfort). To those reading this, before you use a Groupon with any vendor, contact them ahead of time to find out if the Groupon that they advertise is in your best interest, ie The Orthopedic Upgrade + Groupon is more than buying from me.
OUCH! Sorry that you didn't enjoy the experience. Intake form is required by NY state. I HAVE effectively treated MOST bodily pains, tingling and numbness, so when I see it on an intake form, I let the person know. I wear a mask to protect my clients and myself. Full disclosure, a residual effect for me having Covid (2019) is a limited lung capacity for me, so breathing may have been heavy.
Thank you! I appreciate you having brought your mother-in-law in to see me, specially since she was only here for a short visit before she returned to her own country. When foreigners come in and tell me that they have been all over the world (the client worked in the travel industry, it is a HUGE compliment to be told that. It is always an honor, whether it was the first or the fifth time that I've heard that.
Thank you Jade for that in-depth review. I appreciate the opportunity to treat you. Frozen Shoulder and Adhesive Capsulitis are conditions that are easily treated regardless of how long it had been. Under most circumstances the person will leave their very first session noticing a moderate to a significant improvement right off the table. Then it is a matter of "rinse-lather-repeat" until the arm is moving freely in a few sessions without surgery
Thank you for your review. Since you received the Orthopedic Deep Tissue Massage, I'll assume that you came in with a chromic pain problem, possibly a common work relatedRepetitive Stress Injury. Most clients come in with upper back, shoulder, and neck pain. Some even have tingling and numbness radiating into their hands such as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, both easily treated with Orthopedic Massage.
Thank you Lisa for coming in.I appreciate the five star review. I am glad that you had a great first time experience. Though yours was the Swedish Massage, I encourage you to come in for an Orthopedic Massage. If you refer friends, its like Kohls cash which you can use to discount your cost. $10 dollars for everyone who comes to me directly. $10.00 dollars discount to your friends and family who come in directly, which means cannot be combined with other offers.
Thank you for your five star review. While I am a wealth of useless trivia, I do like to take the first five minutes talking to my clients about the most important person in the room, me, and how great I am at this. Of course I am joking. It's all about you and your aches and pains, mostly it's about you deep down, your deepest layer of muscle tissue and how I am going to reach those skeletal muscles without putting you in pain, unlike traditional Deep Tissue Massages.
Thank you Christy. One of the comments that I love to hear is how I effected someones sleep. During REM sleep (as you now know) our Anterior Pituitary Gland secretes growth hormone. As adults we are done growing but Neve done repairing damaged cells. Which is why people with Fibromyalgia never heal well.
Thanks Don for the Five Star review. I am so happy that you chose to continue treatment with me from Empire Therapeutic Massage. I appreciate your sense of humor. I love to make people laugh and I truly appreciate those who can make me laugh.
Thank you Caroline for being such a long time client of mine. You were with me when my practice was Lamb To Lion Rehabilitative Massage in Southview Commons, Laying On Of Hands Rehabilitative Massage on Metro Park and now here. Wow!
