Overview

Professional massage therapist trained at the 'Ivy League' of massage schools, the Swedish Institute. I have more than 10 years of experience. Trained in different modalities such as deep tissue, sports, medical, swedish, trigger point, joint mobilization, and also studied exercise science.

In my massage I use a combination of modalities and stretching. Trigger points therapy is very effective and quick in releasing tension and pain in the body. Trigger points are commonly referred to as “knots” in the muscle.... They can result in stiffness, muscle tightness, limited range of motion and chronic pain. Working the trigger points relieves the pain and relaxes the muscles in those areas. As a result it increases the muscle length, it's range of motion and energy levels. I also do general, relaxing Swedish massage.

My studies in exercise science have given me a better understanding of how muscles work, and the importance of exercise and good posture to prevent injuries and to improve the quality of life.

The massage is done on a professional massage table at my place on Flatiron/Chelsea area in Manhattan. Biotone products used for the massage.

Gay, Straight and Bisexual male clients are welcome.

Testimonials

Gathered by Roman from admiring massage clients to share with you.

Sept. 26, 2024 in New York, NY (in-studio)

Roman has the greatest hand of any massage therapist I've ever worked with. His hands are intuitive and are able to find the spots that really need work. While it's happening it's a transcending experience, and I never want it to end. He also has a way of making me feel totally relaxed, because he knows what he's doing. I've been to other masseurs but they always seemed sort of impersonal to me. With Roman, it feels like a very personal experience.

Roman is the real deal. Your muscles will get the attention they need and you will feel instantly relaxed once he starts warming you up. I strongly suggest more than an hour massage so he can give expert care to problem areas and work out those kinks. You won't regret it. I definitely will be returning before the holidays.

Roman is an extremely skillful and well trained massage therapist who cares about his clients and gives the ultimate care.

I book a treatment with Roman on almost a weekly basis. His touch is thoughtfully strong and the added stretching incorporated is appreciated. Over time he has helped with thoracic discomfort, tight hamstrings, etc.

Roman has always been easy to book with and is flexible around shifting schedules. His apartment is convenient and comfortable.

I give him the highest recommendation.

Roman is a professional massage therapist in every sense. He works you on a table in a clean studio. Roman asks you if there are issues and he works on them. He also finds other areas in need. He also stretches your body in ways I never knew. He is not a robotic therapist, in each session he focuses on different areas. His rates are reasonable and does not rush you and he gives you lessons on stretching and balance before you leave.
