So...
whether it's from spring
cleaning in the garden, too many head snaps in The March of the Wooden Soldiers, delayed Seasonal Affective Disorder,
steeply raked stages in Madama Butterfly, picking up your toddler and resting her on your hip for three hours,
playing a no-chin-rest Baroque Violin at one too many Messiahs, or working out too hard so that you can look good
on the beach even though you had comfort food every night since Columbus Day... ...Dave of www.daverubs.com will help you recover from the cold cruel
world with a heated massage table and a warm heart. (Speaking of hearts, a massage makes a great gift to a loved one!)

My
massages can best be described as eclectic, based in the Swedish tradition, with features from Shiatsu,
Myofascial Release,
Trigger Point Therapies, Thai,
Deep Tissue, Sports Massage, and
Medical Massage, depending on what you need and/or want. Some of these modalities I learned in classes and workshops and some from other
practitioners.
Education (most recent first): Earned a degree in Massage Therapy from The Swedish Institute in New York City. BA from the University of Pennsylvania. Regents Diploma with Honors from New Dorp High School. Six
long years at the Yeshiva Teferith Schmuel Ezra. P.S. 10.
Licensure: Licensed to practice as a Massage Therapist
in New York State. Click here for verification: NYS Professions: Online Verifications In My Humble Opinion: Just
so you know, a NYS license does NOT mean that the bodyworker is any good. Some of my favorite and most talented masseurs have
no license, and some licensed ones are so awful I stopped the massage after ten minutes, paid them in full, and left.
The only benefits derived from having a license are the ability to work in licensed health clubs and spas, the ability to
write a receipt for my clients who have flex-pay, and the ability to get malpractice insurance. And, for those who worry about such things, the
New York State license requires me to be discreet as part of the client/practitioner relationship. I do not discriminate against any person because of age, ancestry, color, disability
or handicap, national origin, race, religious creed, sex, sexual orientation, or veteran status. However, if you are under
18, you need to have a parent or guardian present.

As a licensed
massage therapist, I pride myself on my intuitive and knowledgeable touch. I have the ability to really
dig deep into muscles, or to use a feather-light touch, and everything in between. Whether to help heal injuries,
relax tight muscles, or relieve everyday stress, I feel certain that I can help you. Still, you should choose a massage therapist as
carefully as you would a psychotherapist. So, ask around, shop around, do what you need to do... but, please... ...don't let this happen to you!
