I have been working with Boston Bodyworker for many years. The staff of massage therapists have always been professional and personable. They have been able to be an integral part of my wellness team. I highly recommend.

Absolutely horrible -- It's hard to imagine a worse experience than I had. 1) "Therapist" hadn't read the form you are required to fill out before the session, so I went over where my pain issues were before the massage started. 2) Despite that discussion "therapist" asked "what side was hurting?" when the massage began. So he didn't read what I wrote or listen to what I said. 3) Shortly into session "therapist" declared himself "feeling faint" and just left. No massage, no nothing. Painful area was literally untouched. 4) Manager waited over 24 hours before calling to apologize -- while laughing about it! It's really hard to see an apology as sincere if the person is laughing. Maybe it was out of embarrassment but it was highly unprofessional and inappropriate nonetheless. 5) To make up for this disaster, I was told that if I PAY them for another massage, they'd add half an hour to the session. Seriously??? I need to pay them so they can make up for their horrible staff? Don't think so - I won't be back.

I've had 5-7 massages there over 5 years because they take health care spending card but i almost always regret it. only 2 of the therapist were good They aren't there anymore. Won't go back. Fong Massage is 100x more effective

I couldn't be happier with the quality of therapy I received here. I went in thinking I needed to have a deep tissue massage to relieve thoracic pain and improve mobility. James had the knowledge and was honest enough to recommend that I get myofascial release therapy instead. And WOW. The results from just one hour were better than the results I've had at other places with weeks of repeated visits. I already booked another appointment and intend to be a regular there. I feel better than I have in a long time thanks to Boston Bodyworker and James.

No.Our therapists will communicate with you about anything that may elicit discomfort.There are times during a massage where a patient will report a feeling of a “good hurt” or “it hurts so good”.The primary intent when treating the muscles is to match tissue tension,meaning we are trying to communicate with the tissue through careful palpation in order to get it to relax and return to its normal resting state.We like to communicate with the patient by using a ‘personal’ pain scale of 1-10.We like to work in the area of a 5-7 range. There are times when we do not need to “go deeper” because we achieved the response from the tissue being treated.It is important that you communicate with your therapist at any time if you are uncomfortable.
We like to define a clinical massage as a comprehensive blend of evidence based massage and movement techniques that specifically cater to the prevention of musculoskeletal pain. It is in-tended to assist the body in what it does naturally; repair. A clinical massage is best utilized when applied on a consistent basis depending upon the level of stress a person places upon one’s body.
