I had a wonderful post-NYC marathon massage from Sarah Maag on Nov 5. She is professional, courteous, and had a wealth of knowledge and experience to help athletes, especially runners. I impressed with the entire experience: from finding information on the website, to the smooth online booking system Sarah Maag Massage Therapy uses. She met me out front of the office building where the studio is, and spent time making sure I was comfortable. The massage was relaxed and specific to my needs as an athlete. I was even given extra time to finish a problem spot--that was so appreciated! I would recommend Sarah for athletes in NYC or those guests like myself, who wanted a post-marathon recovery massage.

I had my first ever massage experience (!) @ Sarah Maag Massage Therapy with Kate, who was thorough, knowledgeable, and super attentive. She made me feel at ease from the start, which I really appreciated (I wasn't sure what to expect!). She addressed my problem areas and even gave me yoga advice (she is well-versed in yoga too) during our debrief session. The space is relaxing -- great vibe. I'll be back! More...

I cannot believe how amazing I feel after a massage from Kate at Sarah Maag Massage Therapy! I signed up for my appointment online, which was very easy/straightforward. Then the day before the appointment I received a confirmation email and a text with directions to the location, which were helpful. When it was time for my appointment, Kate met me in the lobby and immediately I could sense her calm energy. Before the massage began, Kate asked me if there was anything I wanted to focus on, and I told her about my tight shoulders. It was clear Kate was a professional, and listened to what I had said about my problem areas. She also thoughtfully asked about using essential oils (which smelled amazing). The actual massage was incredible. I could literally feel the tension in my muscles melting away throughout the massage. Kate also spent a good amount of time working out a knot in my right shoulder, like we had discussed. The pressure level was perfect for me and she checked in when using slightly more pressure when working on my knot. Before I left, she offered a few stretches I could do at home for my shoulders. Afterwards I felt like I was walking on a cloud! Do yourself a favor and book a session with Kate! More...

My experience at Sarah Maag Massage was exceptional. Kate was my massage therapist. She took the time to review my areas of concern and addressed all of them during the 60 minute massage . Kate gave me a focused massage and I left feeling relaxed with all areas taken care of. The space is beautiful and clean and you feel relaxed as soon as you walk in. I highly recommend Kate and will definitely go back to see her again. More...

I had a wonderful experience at Sarah Maag Massage Therapy. The atmosphere of the space was inviting, relaxing, and helped to promote a peaceful mindset - certainly something I look for in a practice. Hope is incredibly conscientious and professional. My job is physically demanding, and I've suffered from muscle tightness and spasms. After a conversation regarding current areas of stress and tension as well as previous injuries and more, she focused on relaxing my nervous system. After the massage, she gave me helpful recommendations for stretching and applying heat to my muscles at home. I felt well cared for and considerably less stiff. I will definitely be booking another session with her! More...

Very convenient location. The equipment was all of good quality and I enjoyed the clever use of space for the venue. There's some background noise from other businesses in the building but nothing problematic.

An intense workout left me sore, particularly in my legs, shoulders and back. I received a recommendation from a friend to get a massage at SMMT with a masseuse named Hope. I must admit, I vastly underestimated what a professional massage can do for the human body. Within the first 5 minutes of meeting Hope I felt enveloped in a unique serenity and calmness. The most remarkable aspect of the experience was feeling like I was in the hands of an artisan that has mastered their craft - someone that clearly understands how the body works. Confident, judicious movements of her hands and arms. Never too much or too little pressure. Pin-point accuracy and superior intelligence with her attention to detail. Hope was completely in tune with my body at every moment. Her manner was incredibly humble and self-assured, with the likeness of a doctor.     When the session was over it was like coming out of a waking dream! It wasn’t until I stood up did I truly understand what a transformation my body had been through. The worst of my soreness was cut in HALF and overall I felt incredibly energized and light on my feet. Hope also showed me some stretches to improve my leg soreness over the next few days. Thank you! It really helped! A great massage speeds up one’s perception of time. I would recommend booking the longest session your schedule can tolerate because an hour feels like a blissful 20 minutes.   I emphatically recommend Hope! This level of experience should be part of anybody’s weekly routine. I am so thrilled with Hope’s ability to deliver such a top notch performance and expertise that I am making her my regular masseuse. I originally thought I was going for “just a massage” and it turned out to be more like a spiritual experience... Seriously! This world needs more people like her. THANK YOU! More...

Hope was personable yet poised, making sure to talk with me before our session about areas of tension, negative stressors, sleep habits, even food allergies! She was attentive and professional throughout and after having had persistent pain in my hand and shoulder, I felt as light as a feather and without pain for the first time in weeks!

Wonderful day at Sarah Maag Massage Therapy =Total relaxation They have such a beautiful location and facilities. The main waiting room is very luxurious and comfortable with fresh fruit and water. The woman's area has everything you would require after or before your spa treatments. I only wish they had a private dressing rooms . Love the sauna my favorite and they has a huge steam room and Roman style jacuzzi. Lots of attendants around if you need assistance. My facial by far was best I have had in a long time left my skin glowing . They also have a nice selection of skin care treatments for sale in the entrance. The robes are so luxurious my daughter purchased one to use at home . Can't wait to go back. More...

Went back for my second massage at Sarah Maag today and my second experience was even better than the first! I was running late because my driver got a little lost, but Sarah was super understanding and still gave me the full hour of time (she didn't have another appointment immediately after mine, thankfully). She's moved her practice into a new building, but the massage room is now a little bit bigger and has way more natural light. I liked it! Even though I wasn't there for any specific pain or aches, she still took the time to catch up with me, ask me how I was doing since my last visit, and asked if there were any areas/massage methods that I wanted to focus on. My main objective was just to relax and I definitely succeeded in that.I'm not sure if I mentioned this in my first review, but the massage table and sheets are so comfortable and soft here. I could just about fall asleep on that massage table. Sarah queued up some music and mixed together some scented oils for the massage. I also *love* the way she incorporates heat with hot pillows/warm hands.We ended today's session with some really helpful breathing exercises. I think it's great that she ends every session with something that I can do at home or work. I'm still a massage rookie, but I will definitely be back for a third visit. More...

Excellent service! The space is currently situated in a small building in Downtown Brooklyn. Taking an elevator to reach the floor I needed to be in, I was greeted by my masseur Brogan with warmth and a welcoming disposition. Brogan escorted me to the massage room which was cozy softly lit; soft greens and grays, splashes of white and a tasteful painting of a portion of human anatomy put me immediately at ease. Not to mention the cute salt lamp nightlight! Brogan walked me through the process of Lomi Lomi (Hawaiian massage therapy), gracefully explained what I should expect, and politely inquired if I had any questions. Brogan is an exceptional listener and his warmth offset my nervousness. I felt profoundly welcomed by him! Brogan's physical intuition, attention to detail, and physical strength was very much appreciated. I recommend Sarah Maag wholeheartedly and I am very much excited to work with Brogan again! More...
