How can bodywork help you?

Bodywork can reduce or eliminate pain

Your pain journey is unique, with different factors in play. Learn how bodywork offers customized relief from the following pain triggers, as well as corrects a myriad of other health conditions linked below.

Feel better - now and later

The benefits of bodywork massage

You ice, stretch, roll, even try “deep pressure” massages, but your hip still catches and nights stay restless. Maybe a surgeon floats the idea of a scope. Before you sign consent forms, learn how heat-assisted fascial massage can loosen scarred or overworked tissue and let nerves finally relax.

    Pain Relief

    When adhesions let go, that constant ache eases. Many walk out saying, “I already feel lighter.”

    Increased Mobility

    Freed fascia lets joints glide. Reaching overhead, bending to tie shoes, twisting in the car feel natural again.

    Stress Reduction

    When pain settles, your nervous system switches from fight-or-flight to rest-and-repair. Shoulders drop, breath deepens, and tension fades.

    Improved Flexibility

    Heat plus deep work loosens stubborn lines, so stretches actually stretch and athletic training stops arguing with your hamstrings. 

    Improved Posture

    Releasing tight fascia lets you stand tall without forcing it. Breathing opens, and you look as relaxed as you feel.

    Better Sleep

    Night-time twinges vanish, you roll over undisturbed, and the alarm finds you rested instead of sore.

They found relief, so can you

From marathoners to desk workers, hundreds of Lexington neighbors told they “need surgery” now move comfortably thanks to Bodywork Masters. Hear their stories, and see for yourself!

Amazing result!

Bob has been great for me! I came to him on the recommendation of my wife, whom he had helped a lot with her shoulder. When I showed up, I had chronic knee pain which was starting to spread up and down my leg.

I was convinced that I needed surgery, and this was my last stop before seeing an orthopedic surgeon. Bob took a look, started to work, and in an hour the pain was already reduced.

Within a couple of weeks, the pain was gone. Amazing result! I’ve continued to work with Bob, as he’s been focusing on other problem areas that I’d been ignoring up to that point. I’ve mentioned him to a number of friends, and would recommend him to anyone with significant joint pain or movement issues.

Bob's a magician!

Let me begin with I first started going to Bob with the worst sciatica. I was limping and leaning to one side when someone said to me, Julie you have a problem… you need to go see Bob.

Well now I go see Bob regularly which is once a month for 60 minutes and let me tell you its the best 60 minutes ever. Bob asks you what is bothering you and he works on it. For instance today I can’t tell you how I feel. I feel like a new lady. My neck and back and shoulders were bothering me and I kept on going to yoga and stretching but it just was not working. Well today he worked the neck, which cured the back, which cured the shoulder and to be blunt all the way into my buttocks. This is how a neck can take effect on the body. I told Bob that he’s a magician. I can’t not to tell you enough. You need to go. Bob does this full time with no rest. I don’t know how he does it but its consistent throughout the entire 60 minutes. Plus his office is clean and new and he is expanding for us! Schedule a visit!

It has been a great experience.

Robert Tricomi was recommended by a friend as I have had lower back pain as I walk a long distance. When I attended my first visit the office was very neat and organized looking! The assistant were very receptive and courteous when I arrived. I went in for my first body massage and leaving the room, I felt great! I then signed up for 10 sessions going forward. Every session I was treated excellent & courteously! It has been a great experience.

Chuck Mabardy

I highly recommend Bob. He will help you!

Initially I saw Bob due to a torn rotator cuff –I was in pain and had lost most of the mobility in my arm. I thought surgery was going to be my only option but like magic, Bob fixed both. That was over 10 years ago! I’m now 65 and see him just for general body maintenance as needed. He helps me to remain flexible and to feel great. I highly recommend Bob. He will help you!

Nancy Stuart

I’m pain free!

I started coming to Bodywork Masters after I ended up in the Emergency Room for severe back pain caused by sciatica. The pain I experienced was intense, a 9 out of a scale of 10. I had shooting pain and numbness running from my low back and down both of my legs. The ER prescribed muscle relaxers but it was difficult to sleep, drive or even walk.

I saw Bob a few days after the ER and could barely walk from the car to the office. After one session my pain was 30% less. I returned each week for more bodywork and within three sessions I was 80% better and each visit since I continue to get better and now have almost no back pain.

Since I’ve been coming to Bodywork Masters I no longer need the muscle relaxers and I’m back to all my regular activities. Most importantly, I’m pain free.

Derek R.

I highly recommend Bob!

I started getting bodywork at BWM after a rotator cuff surgery and months of PT with no relief of pain. I was at an exercise class when a friend recommended I see Bob. I was receiving cortisone shots and ready to schedule a second rotator cuff surgery. After 2 sessions with Bob I cancelled my second surgery and continued my sessions with Bob. I highly recommend Bob and have referred many friends and family to him.

Bob is truly a “GO TO” Professional!

I’m retired and actively participate in golf, softball and fitness training. I had a knee replacement and post surgery I had a lack of range of motion and flexion. My son in California found BWM online after I tried PT and stretching on my own.

I would absolutely refer Bob, he is extremely knowledgeable and experienced. He worked wonders with me over a period of 6 weeks. He is truly a “GO TO” Professional!

Bob W.

I have recommended dozens of people to Bob!

I am an active walker and yogi. Several years ago I had frozen shoulder that required surgery, post surgery I went to PT. On completion of PT my therapist recommended I see Bob at BWM to continue working on my range of motion. Bob significantly improved my range of motion, a few years later I developed frozen shoulder on my other shoulder and I didn’t need surgery, Bob was able to work on my shoulder to decrease the pain and increase my range of motion.

I have recommended dozens of people to Bob, I truly believe that anyone that has pain in their body or lack of range of motion could benefit and avoid surgery/medication. My husband, children and siblings have all been treated at BWM. My husband and I keep regular appointments with Bob for maintenance.

  • I learned so much from the training and Bob!

    I learned so much from the training and Bob. I have been a PT for over 28 years and have taken many continuing education courses and this by far was the most useful to my practice. I learned so many skills that I now use daily.

  • The Tricomi Method Bodywork Training truly stands out!

    With over four decades of experience as a licensed massage therapist, I’ve taken many trainings—but the Tricomi Method Bodywork Training truly stands out. Bob Tricomi taught me how to work with fascia in a whole new way, using heat and specialized tools to deliver outstanding results.

    The training was incredibly hands-on. Bob provided real-time feedback, helpful corrections, and explained why each technique works—for reducing pain, improving mobility, and promoting healthier fascia. Since applying these methods, I’ve seen more repeat clients, more referrals, and more 5-star reviews than ever before.

    This training is absolutely worth the investment—whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been in the field for decades like me. Highly recommend!
