Sophia is a New York State Licensed Massage Therapist and has been practicing in New York City since 2013. Having graduated from the renowned Swedish Institute, she received the highest caliber of massage training, including knowledge of modalities like Shiatsu, reflexology, Tui Na, polarity therapy, craniosacral therapy, and manual lymphatic drainage. While knowledge of all these styles has helped shape Sophia as a massage therapist, her specialization is in deep tissue, myofascial release, sports, trigger point therapy, and medical massage, having developed her own unique style based on these methods. She strives at creating a balance between a relaxing experience and focus to and alleviation of problem areas. Sophia is also certified in Prenatal and Postpartum massage, and loves helping women cope with the physical challenges that occur during and following pregnancy.

​

Before venturing to massage school, Sophia earned a BA from Pace University (Summa Cum Laude) in Philosophy and Dance, both of which continue to serve as influences on the way she approaches bodywork. Like her educational background, Sophia exceeds at marrying the cerebral with the artful, and creating a truly therapeutic massage session, she has come to understand, requires both. After a session with Sophia, clients can expect to feel both thoroughly relaxed as well as improvement in any preexisting areas of pain, tension, or discomfort.
