36 W 21st St, New York, NY 10010, USA
I booked a post surgery lymphatic drainage massage not because I have had surgery but because I have had a knee injury. My physiotherapist recommended that I get lymphatic massage to complement the physio therapy I’m doing, but that it has to be very gentle. I’ve had some great experiences since my injury with lymphatic drainage massage, but the person I usually see was unavailable so I decided to try MOVA. I communicated that I had a knee injury before I arrived, when I arrived I repeated it and explained in more detail, and I said many times during the session that I needed it to be much gentler but it was still very intense. I did not do 1 star because this is a lovely studio, the people are kind, and I’m sure this massage technique would be great for some people, but unfortunately it was so intense that I was very uncomfortable even on the areas that I was not injured. I had to leave after about 15 minutes. She only did a minute or two on my injured leg, thankfully, but it was and still is very uncomfortable and I worry it could have worsened my injury. I said that I would pay in full but that I could not finish the session, and I did pay in full. You should note that the massages do not seem modifiable at all in terms of pressure. If you are here for a massage for pleasure, and you like a very vigorous and intense body contouring massage, I’m sure you would like it. I do think they should remove their post surgical lymphatic drainage option, however, because this technique could post a risk for someone with an injury or after surgery.
