Powerful Massage & Movement Training for Your Nervous System | Williamsburg, Brooklyn

105 Grand St, Brooklyn

Ease stubborn pain, tension, and stress. Move with confidence, curiosity, and joy.

Traditional bodywork can feel like a temporary fix or an aggressive fight against your tissue. My work takes a different path. By working with your nervous system instead of inflicting force, we can relieve deep-seated tension, quiet chronic pain, and help you feel genuinely at home in your body.

From Elite Ballet to Clinical Relief

Hi, I’m Daniel. My journey to becoming a Licensed Massage Therapist and Certified Personal Trainer started with 15 years as a professional dancer with the American Ballet Theatre.

I combine that lived, athletic, embodied experience with modern pain science to help you navigate:

  • Desk-Bound Bracing: Relieving tight shoulders, pecs, and neck.

  • Nervous System Regulation: Shifting you out of a perpetual "fight or flight" mode.

  • Complex Recovery: Tailored support for chronic pain, autoimmune conditions, and athletic recovery.

  • Massage That Feels Good and Doesn’t “Beat You Up.”

    "Daniel is amazing to work with! He meets you where you are in your physical journey with empathy, care and no judgement. Can't wait for my next session!" Jennifer

    “When I had painful plantar fasciitis, the stretches that Daniel showed me fixed everything! I didn’t even need to try anything else.” Yuki

    "After just one session, the intense pain I was having in my chest resolved and is still resolved 10 days later. After our session I felt extremely grounded and calm, which has also had a lasting impact." Nicole

    "I cannot recommend Daniel strongly enough. His work is intentional and his presence calming. He really listened to my preferences and worked with my body, my levels of comfort and my history. Our session left me with immense relief and ease." Kate

    “Daniel's Fascia Love class is amazing. It introduced me to a new way of thinking and experiencing movement. I had never thought about the fascia tissue covering our muscles. Focusing on the fascia with simple but powerful exercises has increased my strength and flexibility. Daniel is a wonderful teacher, and I recommend his class to all." Lisa

    “Your classes have forever changed how I stretch, and have truly influenced how my body feels.” Megan
