Sarah is hands-down the best massage therapist I've ever had. I've gone to many massage studios over the years and seen therapists who are trained in a range of techniques, but Sarah's approach is balanced and tailored to your specific needs. When I first came to her for a prenatal massage I had been unable to sleep due to severely aching hips. After just a few visits, my sleep was restored and I was a much happier mama-to-be!
It's not only her technical skills and ability to alleviate any stress or tension; her demeanor is calming and her personality is vibrant and genuine. It's rare to come across a massage therapist who has these qualities and is clearly committed to ensuring every session leaves you feeling a thousand times better than when you started.
After years of jumping from one massage therapist to the next—from the trendiest spas to the busiest neighborhood studios—I've been seeing Sarah regularly for the past two years now. I can't sing her praises enough—she is phenomenal!

I train for marathons and triathlons regularly thus I'm prone to the typical aches and pains that come along with the territory. That's where a massage therapist like Sarah comes in – and yes, she’s that good. I’ve been seeing her for over three years now and to be honest, I don’t know how I would’ve survived without her help.
Sarah is dedicated to making sure that nobody leaves her table without feeling a lot better than they did before getting on it. She takes her time to get to know you on first meeting, and then subsequent meetings ask what's going on, finds out if you have any area that needs a little more work. More than once she has spent an extra couple of minutes just making sure that everything is as it should be. She takes her work seriously and always does an excellent job. I would recommend Sarah to everyone and anyone. She is the sweetest and most talented massage therapist that I've met.

As someone who works out frequently and is an avid runner, my body endures quite a bit of stress. Sarah had become an integral part of my workout regimen helping me make the most of my recoveries with her massages. I appreciate her focus in addressing all of my problem areas. My body always feels refreshed and recharged after every massage. She is my go to person for massages in New York. I highly recommend her.

I have been receiving massage therapy from Sarah for over a year now, at least once a week, and it has become the one non-negotiable thing I do for self-care. Sarah not only has perfect technique; she is truly gifted and able to tune into her clients' body and sense exactly what she needs to work on. She always finds the source of pain and always makes it better. On top of that, she is a caring and lovely human being...such wonderful energy to have around. I can't recommend her highly enough!

Sarah is a game changer. I met her when I was pregnant with my first child and was experiencing severe back pain and sciatica. She literally has changed my world since then. I have been seeing her weekly for the past 2+ years (pre-natal, post-natal and beyond) and cannot imagine life without her. She is not only an incredible massage therapist, but has become a great friend. Many of my friends now see her regularly as well. She is beyond lovely, has a healing touch, and leaves me feeling like a new woman each time I see her.

Sarah at Tivoli Massage is hands down the best massage therapist I've ever hired! As long as she stays in the NY area she will be my sole massage therapist. She has an innate ability to locate problem areas and massage away the pain. She is very professional and consults with me prior to beginning every massage. She is a kind and thoughtful soul that makes it a pleasure to hire her for massage therapy. After each massage I feel like a million bucks! I highly recommend Sarah at Tivoli Massage.
