Rachel Richards, LMT

Rachel Richards, LMT

Massage Therapist
272 First Ave Loop, New York, NY
I am a New York State Licensed and Board Certified Massage Therapist who has worked with hundreds of clients. I specialize in chronic pain relief, postural alignment, and mobility. My work is primarily a blend of Deep Tissue Massage, Sports Massage, and Medical Massage. Sessions are focused on alleviating your pain, tension, and restrictions, improving your alignment, and enabling you to move freely. Whether it's running marathons, writing novels, or lifting up your child for a squeeze, my goal is to help you do what you love for as long as you love to do it! My work is uniquely defined in three big ways: Tailored to you We're not treating a condition; we're treating a person. Just because two people have the same injury doesn't mean they will both respond in the same way to identical treatments. A customized, individual treatment plan is developed to help you best achieve your personal health goals. Targeting therapeutic goals To achieve long-lasting benefits of your massage therapy sessions, the work is goal oriented. Not only do we focus on alleviating pain and tension, but we work towards specific functional goals, such as walking for more than 1 mile without muscle cramping, getting back into cycling, typing for more than 5 minutes without numbness in the fingers, getting down on the floor to play with grandkids, walking up and down subway stairs instead of splurging on cabs, and getting out of bed in the morning without muscle spasms. Evidence-based My work is informed by the latest research - and fortunately, massage therapy research has been exploding in recent years. I combine this with extensive experience and continuous advanced education courses taught by leading health and bodywork educators. Evidence-based practice also includes the valuable information you bring regarding your health history, your experiences, and your treatment goals.
