How can bodywork help you?

Reduce or eliminate pain with bodywork massage therapy

Bodywork concentrates on fascia (like a gelatinous Spider-Man suit) covering your muscles. When trauma, surgery, or repetition makes it sticky, we warm, stretch, and free it so blood flows and nerves calm.

    Injury

    Tweaked a hamstring, rolled an ankle, or woke up with a stiff back? We melt that tight tissue so movement stops hurting.

    Surgery

    Months after a C-section or knee scope, the scar still pulls and burns. Gentle heat and hands-on work let everything relax again.

    Stress

    Laptop marathons knot your neck and jaw; nights turn restless. Warm cups and steady pressure help shoulders drop and breathing slow.

    Repetitive Motion

    Typing, golf swings, or carrying kids one-sided fire up elbows and wrists. We trace the line, loosen it, and everyday tasks feel easier.

    Chronic Health Conditions

    Arthritis, scoliosis, years of low-back pain really take their toll. Regular fascia sessions keep tissue pliable so stairs, steering wheels, and hobbies stay doable.

    Acute Health Conditions

    Sciatica or a pinched nerve can hit like lightning. Targeted heat eases pressure fast, letting you sit, stand, and breathe without pain.

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.

From stuck to moving again

People arrive with pain that won’t let up. They leave lighter, looser, and more confident. Their words say it best.

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.

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!

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!

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.

Frequently asked questions

Still wondering? If we missed something, please get in touch with our team, we’re happy to answer any questions you might have. 

Get in touch
  • What should I expect from my first bodywork session?

    During your first session you will complete a form with your presenting issues. Your therapist will discuss with you what the issue may be and then you will start your bodywork session. You may experience some bruising or red marks, this will depend on the state of the tissue being worked on. Bodywork can feel intense, especially the first session if there is an injury or trauma to the tissue.

  • What should I wear to a bodywork session?

    Your comfort is a priority during a bodywork session, so choose clothing that makes you feel at ease. Opt for loose-fitting attire or clothing that can be easily adjusted. Some clients prefer to wear underwear or swimwear for added comfort, while others feel more relaxed disrobing entirely. Ultimately, the key is ensuring your therapist can access the areas of your body that require attention to address any pain or discomfort effectively.

  • How often should I come?

    That will vary based on your injury or condition of your tissue. If you have an acute issue that is causing pain or discomfort you may need to come more often in the beginning , every 10 days to 2 weeks, and spread out sessions as you heal. We recommend that you come every 4-6 weeks for maintenance to keep you body healthy. Your therapist will be able to give you a personal recommendation.

  • Do you accept insurance?

    We accept FSA, Flexible Spending Accounts. You can use your FSA debit card or we can write you a receipt. We are working with some specific insurance companies to offer a discount on our services. We will post the details once we have worked out an arrangement.
