What We’re Known For
OUR STANDARD
The Bodyworks DW Method
No guesswork, no spa menu. Every session starts with a real evaluation, then integrated clinical massage tailored to your body—plus simple at‑home strategies—so results last beyond the table.
01
Therapists you can trust
All therapists are NYS‑licensed, personally mentored by founder David Weintraub, LMT, and continually train in orthopedic, myofascial, and neuromuscular work—many also teach accredited CE.
02
Time, not “styles”
You don’t pick “deep tissue” or “sports” from a menu. You book 60 or 90 minutes, and after your evaluation we choose the right blend of techniques for your body that day.
03
Root‑cause focus
Where you hurt isn’t always where the problem started. We look at posture, movement patterns, breathing, and your injury history to get beyond symptom chasing and address deeper drivers of pain.
04
Good intense, not brutal
Work that changes how you feel—often in the first visit—kept at a productive, safe intensity so your nervous system can relax instead of brace and fight back.
05
Support beyond the table
You leave with with simple home‑care strategies—stretches, positions, or self‑massage——and we coordinate with your PT, physician, or trainer when it helps.
06
Two studios, one standard
Two NYC studios—FiDi and Midtown West—using the same results‑focused method, shared training, and the same 60‑ and 90‑minute session options, so you get consistent care wherever you go.
TESTIMONIALS
Trusted by thousands of New Yorkers
Hurts so good is absolutely not the solution; she has a gentle yet effective approach that “welcomes back” your body to proper alignment, yet will have you feeling like jello in the best way as you lift from the table. Better, the effects of 60-90 minutes with her will last far longer than your usual session. She’s got a magnificent skill of seeing where your body needs the most help as you walk in—before you’ve even revealed what ails you—but really listens to your aches and pains to ensure you leave feeling brand new! I actually hate to recommend her, because that means less availability for me, but alas, I want you too to feel amazing.
What sets Leela apart is her intuitive skill. She listens and she truly cares about your comfort and progress. I've seen real, lasting relief from working with her.
My two cents: start with weekly sessions until your pain becomes manageable, then transition to every other week for maintenance. Consistency really is key with her approach, and the results speak for themselves.
If you're looking for a massage therapist who combines genuine warmth with real technical skill, Leela is the one to see. Five stars, without hesitation! Her massages are a highlight of my week.

Frequently Asked Questions
Have more questions? Get in touch
What happens at my first visit?
You’ll meet your therapist, talk briefly about what’s going on, and do a few simple movement tests. Then we’ll design a targeted session around your main goals for today—no generic full‑body routine. You leave with a clearer picture of what’s driving your pain and 1–3 self‑care ideas to keep progress going.
Do I need to choose a massage style?
No. At Bodyworks DW you book time, not a style. You choose 60 or 90 minutes, and your therapist blends the right techniques—deep tissue, myofascial, neuromuscular, orthopedic techniques, and gentler work as needed.
How do Wellness Wallets work?
You pre‑load a one‑time amount and we add bonus credit on top. You can use Wallet credit on any 60‑ or 90‑minute session at either studio, with any therapist. Your loaded credits never expire. Bonus credit expires in 12 months.
Do you take insurance?
We don’t bill insurance directly. In New York State, massage therapy is usually out‑of‑network. We can provide a detailed medical massage receipt (“superbill”) you can submit for possible reimbursement (coverage varies by plan). HSA/FSA cards are welcome.
If you’d like more detail, you can read about our out-of-network care in our studio policies.
Can I use my HSA or FSA card?
Yes. We accept HSA/FSA cards with a major credit‑card logo (Visa, Mastercard, etc.). Most plans treat medical massage as an eligible expense, but it’s always best to confirm with your provider.
