From our clients

  • She is so good that I make the 1.5 to 2 hour trip to continue receiving her services

    "I'm 63 years old. I've been doing massage therapy for nearly 40 years. Suffice it to say, I have experience with many different massage therapists and the various forms of massage therapy. When I discovered Lucinda, when she was working in Bay Ridge Brooklyn nearly 4 years ago, I immediately knew that I had found a gem. Lucinda is very good at working at what ails you. She is gifted as a excellent massage therapist should be in feeling and finding the problem areas that you may not even be aware of or it's in another area because of the way that our various systems are connected. She is so good that I make the 1.5 to 2 hour trip to continue receiving her services. I personally find the 90 minute sessions the best because I find it more complete. "

  • Lotus Position

    I was looking for a massage therapist that helped me to stretch my inner legs to be able to sit in a lotus position to meditate. Something I had been trying to do for months without success. Also someone who improved my health in general harmonizing body and mind. Aleks was able to help me to do both. He knows what body-mind is and how it works. He offers different styles according to the needs of the patient. He works very professionally and with compassion. Now I can sit in lotus position without pain. I highly recommend him!

  • tremendous value in each of our sessions

    I have been treated by Aleks Degtyarev for 7 months during the last year at the Melt Massage studio in Brooklyn. I had an outstanding experience working with Aleks. He is great at communicating and my back pain was noticeably reduced after a few sessions. Aleks is one of these rare people with an incredible talent for bodywork, he proved not only to be highly educated on multiple techniques and approaches in the field but also to understand how the body functions on a much deeper level. This resulted in tremendous value in each of our sessions, and the feeling of progress and being in good hands. I was very much looking forward to working with him every single time. If you’re looking for a healing therapeutic massage, not just a “feel-good” massage, Aleks is the person for you. I wish he’d stay in Brooklyn, so I could keep working with him, but hearing he started his own practice, I know he’ll do an absolutely amazing job, and I would highly recommend Aleks to anyone looking for a wonderful massage experience.

  • recover from an injury in my quad while being able to continue dancing

    I’m a professional dancer, and Aleks helped me recover from an injury in my quad while being able to continue dancing. He used a mixture of eastern and western techniques, from deep tissue massage to assisted stretching to trigger point release. Every week we tried a different approach, and it allowed me to recover extremely quickly.”

  • I don’t know if I can properly express my gratitude

    I had a great massage at Melt Massage with someone. I went to rebook and she wasn’t available as soon as I wanted a massage. I randomly went with whoever was free next. That was when I met Aleks. I don’t know if I can properly express my gratitude in language. His intuitive nature is unparalleled and maybe just from our immediate comfort around each other I didn’t question any of his impulses. As a trans man sometimes I feel all the awkward feelings in a massage room. But Aleks didn’t even blink and was very excited and available talking about how scar tissue can affect back movement and so much more. He found that we worked very well together with Tua Na and I just let him do his thing. As soon as we finished our first session I immediately rebooked him. I went as many times as I could before he moved to Long Island. I even now will drive an hour and 45 minutes one way to have a session with him. To trust someone with your body and to help you rediscover pathways that seem blocked can be profoundly exciting and open up many feelings. Every time we meet I feel like I am in better communication and connection to my body on not just a physical comfort level but on a level of expanding the possibility of my own movement on physical and spiritual levels. We trade book ideas and he follows up beyond a typical “hope you’re well” but on a more deep practice that with my greater knowledge of my body can only improve his own practice in helping me achieve fluidity.. We once had a session where as he worked on one area and I felt a response in another he would follow my own body's guidance. It was incredible and exciting to me that he is someone working with healing by using the greatest guide ever…the person he is working on. I can’t recommend him enough and his book recommendations. I look forward to a long time of working together. And trust that he will work as far as I want to take my body’s capabilities to even greater capacities.

  • most transformative bodywork I've ever received

    My few sessions with Aleks were some of the most transformative bodywork I've ever received. In a highly collaborative 90 minutes, Alex guided my body on a deep journey, finding spaces of blockage, memory, and emotion that I didn't know were there. Together we worked through everything that arose in my body to let go of old habits, feelings, and pain, and create space for new potential. In this co-created therapeutic space, Aleks helped me meet my own boundaries within my body, and together push through those blockages to free up emotional and physical space I didn't know was possible.

  • He did an incredible job releasing tension in my hips

    I went to Aleks for body work and left with more than I asked for. He did an incredible job releasing tension in my hips. Not only was I able to release physical tension but emotional trauma I had been storing for years. Aleks was calm, professional and proficient during my sessions. I felt very comfortable with him and was able to fully surrender to the healing techniques he performed. He is my go to for any type of body work, he’s very informative and his touch is shamanic.
