We pair breakthrough fascia work with immersive training, doubling the impact of every technique we teach.

Bodywork masters, here to restore possibility to people’s lives
our purpose
We’ve met teachers who could barely stand through a class, runners sidelined before race day, grandparents missing playtime, and new mothers whose C-section scars made simple twists agonizing.

Watching them leave our practice upright, rested, and hopeful is what drives our work.

Bodywork Masters exists to offer an effective, non-invasive road back to comfort – before cortisone, opioids, or scalpels even enter the picture – and to arm fellow practitioners with the skills to replicate that success with their own clients.
The moment fascia became our focus, and training others became our vision
our story
Bob Tricomi opened a single-room studio in Lexington with one aim; get people out of pain. After months of 12-hour days he noticed a pattern: when he warmed fascia first, tissue “melted,” deep work felt comfortable, and results stuck. Clients in Lexington raved; told their neighbors, and it wasn’t long before he was completely booked out. Bob could have raised prices and kept the line outside his door.

Instead, he asked a bigger question: How can more people feel this relief without driving across 3 towns? From then on, Bob started teaching The Tricomi Method to like-minded colleagues. Bodywork Masters was born – part treatment centre, part training ground – devoted to delivering life-changing relief and empowering therapists to replicate it everywhere.
From our Lexington studio to training bodyworkers everywhere
our vision in action
The Bodywork Masters Training Program turns The Tricomi Method® into a clear, 25-hour roadmap.

Licensed massage therapists, PTs, chiropractors, acupuncturists, and movement coaches shadow live sessions, master heat-assisted tools, and practice full-line assessments until they’re second nature.

Graduates leave certified, confident, and able to cut treatment plans from months to weeks; freeing schedules, boosting income, and, most importantly, multiplying access to truly effective care.

When pain finally eases, people talk

From “I’ll need surgery” to “I’m back on the bike,” these stories show what happens when fascia finally moves the way it should.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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!

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.

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!

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.

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!

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.

Our Core Values

The Tricomi Method® is more than techniques — it’s a mindset. These values guide how we treat clients and how we train professionals.

Have a question? let's Talk

Empower clients with knowledge
We talk you through findings, techniques, and easy at-home steps. When clients understand why and how change happens, they become active partners and results last much longer.
Raise the bar for bodywork care
We share tools, hands-on lessons, and honest feedback so new bodyworkers begin where we leave off. A rising standard of care helps every future patient who walks through any door.
Care for the whole human
Muscles, nerves, sleep, stress, posture – everything is connected. We treat tissue while coaching lifestyle tweaks, so that relief shows up in daily life, not just on the treatment table.
Treat the root, not the symptom
Pain travels. We follow each fascial line until we find the true restriction, release it, and confirm movement is free, making sure the same ache doesn’t circle back next month.

Owner, Master Bodyworker

For more than fifteen years, Bob Tricomi has been the go-to bodyworker for people in Lexington who’ve “tried everything” yet still live with pain.

Today Bob splits his schedule between hands-on client care and advanced deep tissue massage training through The Bodyworks Masters Training Program. Whether he’s resolving a frozen shoulder with myofascial release and trigger-point therapy or mentoring a new practitioner through scar-tissue work, Bob’s goal is the same: restore pliable, healthy tissue so people can move and live without limits.

Outside the studio he’s most proud of his two accomplished daughters and his ever-energetic grandchildren, who remind him daily why pain-free movement is so important.
