About Us

Body Connection Massage is a small business owned by Loretta Gmeinder, Licensed Massage Therapist. She attended the New York Institute of Massage and graduated co-valedictorian of her class in April 2015. Previous to massage therapy, she worked at the University of Buffalo for 19 years as a research interviewer on several grant funded studies in the addictions field. She received her BS in Sociology in 1999. Loretta became interested in holistic living after she healed a health condition within 6 months using homeopathy. After that, her passion continued to grow as she became a mother, explored issues surrounding pregnancy, childbirth, child rearing and holistic living. This naturally led her to Massage Therapy!

  • This is a hidden gem on Sheridan Dr - had an excellent experience from appointment scheduling to walking out the door.

    Julie did a great job. Very professional!

  • Very nice place. Great therapists that have a lot of experience and knowledge!

    I would tell them that they should try this form of therapeutic relaxation. It loosens up muscles and the massage feels so good.

  • That my experience was outstanding. The massage therapist provided a soothing and relaxing massage.

    Body Connection has a great staff in place to take care of any needs or problems. My time with Julie was well spent and very enjoyable. Her background in healthcare combined with massage technique expertise really provides a fantastic experience. I use massage as injury prevention like a maintenance thing and look forward to my next appointment. Five stars!

Loretta is a gifted therapist who really listened to my issues and offered some good advice to mitigate future aches! She addressed two areas of discomfort I had and by the time I left my aches were resolved and and into the following day. Great experience and I'll be booking future appointments .... and I already have referred her to a friend.

She told me interesting facts about the importance of foot massage and how it relates to many other parts of the body. Her soft spoken voice helps with the massage. A very comfortable experience - hope to return soon.

My husband and I did a couples massage, he had Loretta and said she was amazing! Thanks for the relaxing experience. We will definitely come back :)

Every technique the massage therapist performed was beneficial and helped relieve pain in the areas of concentration.

She is so nice, professional, talented and listens to what is hurting you and comes up with ways to make you feel better than you did when you walked through the door. Bottom line is that she cares.

Julie is not your typical massage therapist. She uses her intuition along with her deep knowledge of the body to help you with whatever problem you are experiencing. No massage will be the same. She has helped me significantly with my pain.

Strong hands really dug in and got me deep I turned into pudding a bowl of jello.

Julie talked me through the whole process. She addressed my concerns and targeted the areas that were causing me pain and prompted this visit. She helped me understand my body and how it works.
