Bodywork Spa in Jackson Heights – Lucy Palacios, LMT, MLD-C

Lucy is a rare gem! I’ve frequented a few other places in the city looking for massages that could help with healing knots, some scar tissue beneath the skin, etc. She’s the first person I’ve met where I saw instantaneous results. She uses hot stones in her massages in an effective way that I don’t often see. Shes really easy to communicate with and really cares about her clients. Her prices are very fair, too. It’s a bit of a trek to get here if you don’t live in the neighborhood but I think it’s absolutely worth it and can’t recommend her enough

My massage from Lucy was a good, relaxing and safe experience. She took the time to learn and understand my issues before the massage and checked in frequently during the massage, then made adjustments based on my feedback. I wasn’t afraid that my pain would get worse from the massage, as sometimes happens with me. Clean and relaxing massage room.

loved my appointment here! lucy was very thorough in the intake and was really accommodating with my schedule. the hot rocks treatment helped break down knots i’ve had in my shoulders and back forever. can’t wait to go back!

I had a wonderful experience receiving a Manual Lymphatic Massage from Lucy. It was the first time I had that type of message. As someone who deals with water retention, I definitely felt a difference with my face and chest. I could see less puffiness. My result were more visible the next day. I would recommend Lucy and would return for any bodywork massages!

I recently had a deep tissue massage with Lucy at Bodywork Spa to relieve soreness in the legs after an intense workout. The massage was incredibly effective, with specific attention to quadriceps and hamstrings. Lucy was very professional, knowledgeable, and attentive. She is great at identifying and addressing problem areas, and offers helpful advice. I felt more relaxed after the massage, with less pain and more range of motion. I highly recommend Lucy for anyone looking for a great deep tissue massage for tired or sore muscles.

I had a great experience with Lucy’s Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)! It was the first time I did something like that and she was very patient and helpful with explaining the difference between massage and MLD, and the benefits . She took before and after photos and I did see visible differences - my skin was smoother and less puffy. I highly recommend and look forward to future sessions.

For years, I assumed my back pain was incurable and would be just something I learned to live with. However, after just two sessions of trigger therapy massage with Lucy, I was proven wrong! I feel better than I have in years. Lucy creates an attentive and peaceful environment during the massage, and I highly recommend coming here.
