"I had the amazing opportunity to be introduced to Greg and his work during my run in Hairspray on Broadway. Shortly after my first appointment with him, my body responded in ways that simply blew my mind, and our sessions together quickly became one of my most anticipated days of the week. Greg focuses in immediately where you as an individual need attention the most, and his ability as a gifted teacher also provides a well-spring of knowledge about what's going on with your body. He has an innate ability to truly connect with people on a level I've never experienced with a therapist before. Greg has a deep understanding of the mind/body connection and trust me when I say his healing nature expands beyond the physical. My time with him was just as therapeutic mentally and spiritually as it was for my physical body. Every time I left Greg's I felt like I had tapped into something soulful that is hard to put into words. I'm proud to know this modern-day-magic-man and I will be seeing him for years to come!"

"When your body hurts so does your spirit and Greg's magic touch takes the pain away. When I walk out of a session I feel like the weight of the world has been lifted off my shoulders literally and figuratively! After my first session with Greg, I realized what real body work was and how it truly can change the quality of your everyday life. His healing hands have helped me become pain free. He also understands the body, schedule, and the needs of the actor/singer/dancer doing eight shows a week. His understanding and care on and off the table culminates to a beautiful rejuvenating experience that I am so grateful to be a part of. Greg is magic!"

"I believe that your body speaks to you. It tells you when it's under stress...tells you, of course, when it's in pain...and tells you when to stop kidding yourself -- and that's it time to go see Greg. No joke -- after that initial consultation/massage, the state of your body becomes sort of inextricably linked to this man. He is honest, astute, skilled, and direct. He won't pamper you, but he will heal you. You may want to curse him off, but at least he lets you do it to his face. It doesn't get any better..."

"Truth be told, if I could clone one person on this earth it would be Greg Miele. I would duplicate him so that everyone I care for would know what it is like to truly, simply FEEL GOOD. I think those of us whose careers and livelihoods depend on physical activity tend to adapt to pain. Because of Greg's vast knowledge of the body, his ability to not only cure you of pain, but get to the root of the problem AND prevent it from reappearing, are unmatched. I have seen many a doctor, chiropractor, physical therapist, masseuse, etc. since 2001 when I started in this business and never have I had the personalized treatment, attention, care and results like I receive from Greg"

"Serious body work that produces real results is not for the faint of heart. If you are a performer, a dancer, an athlete or just someone who takes the health of their body as a high priority, then you must schedule an appointment immediately with greg. He will zero in on the source of your discomfort, whether through injury or just day to day stress, and pull it out of you. with great skill and years of experience he can help restore you and get you back on your feet. He goes deep and complete, so you have to surrender, but nothing remarkable gets accomplished if you aren't willing to put in the work. No one else has been able to break through to the core the way Greg has for me. And he's one heck of nice man too! I highly recommend Greg for bodywork."

"After weeks of flying around the world, and carrying heavy photo equipment up mountains, I can always count on Greg to put my aching body back into shape. Greg has the ability to know the exact spot that needs work; it's as if the hurting part of my body is calling out to him "help me Greg!". Since 2001, Greg has been my go to guy."

"Greg is no ordinary bodyworker.... It f**kin hurts, but the light at the end of the tunnel is no pain. Worth every amazing, excruciating moment! I get off the table and feel like i'm 16 again....He, and his work, are one of a kind"

"In a city filled with ineffective spa massages, Greg Miele provides the real deal: concentrated deep tissue work that really caters to the needs of his clients. Greg's expert work helps to alleviate the body tension associated with the stressful nature of my job, with his easygoing, friendly personality highlighting each visit. I have been his client for several years, and the work is always thorough and consistent."

"My name is Warren Carlyle and I have been dancing and choreographing since 1986. It has been my pleasure since 2000 to be treated by Greg Miele.

"I use my body every day. It is my livelihood. Never before have I experienced treatment to the standard that Greg provides. The massage is so deep and so effective that often after a serious injury the recovery time is more than halved. The work is specific and concentrated and has always led to a deep feeling of well-being.

"People talk of healing hands. Greg certainly has those and more. I constantly refer Broadway dancers and performers to Greg. They appreciate so much the strength of the work and the healing effects of the treatments. Greg always follows up with a phone call and is constantly available to address all needs and concerns.

"In a clean, quiet, calm setting, you can have a life changing experience with a true master. I will be calling on Greg as often as I can for the rest of my life."

"When Curtis Holbrook recommended Greg to me he said, "He's kept me onstage." That pretty much sums it up! Rock of Ages opening night and I couldn't turn my head. He literally was responsible for getting me back up there. His understanding of the body is remarkable, and his work is like nothing I've ever experienced. Oh yeah, and it hurts like a mother****er... in that "now I might have to marry you" kinda way! "

"Greg is a healer. As an actor, I've traveled a lot, and gotten a lot of different work from a lot of different people. And while the work may be relaxing, it ultimately isn't therapeutic. Greg is great for someone wanting to address a specific problem, and has the knowledge and the experience to lead you down the road to recovery. He also isn't afraid to suggest other types of bodywork that could be beneficial to you, whether it be acupuncture or the like. he is truly interested in your well-being. Plus, he's a pretty great guy."

"Ah Greg...What can I say? You rock!!!! I've had many massage therapist over the years work on this body, And none have come even close to Greg's standards. His pleasant manner and infectious laugh make you more than comfortable when you meet him for the first time. His knowledge of the body and it's inner workings are impeccable...you always know exactly what his doing and what his working on cause he tells you. It's less like a relaxing massage and more like a conscious meditation. A conscious exchange of energy...he's wonderful at teaching you to keep your body balanced, which is something we all are searching for..thank you Greg."

"I have never experienced bodywork like Greg's. He is so intuitive and knowledgeable about the body, and his massage work is intense and healing. I go to him to keep flexible, strong and pain-free. My daughter has some chronic problems, which he has alleviated considerably. My son, an athlete, hurt his back, and the minute he comes to New york, asks to see Greg, for the help and relief he gets. i am not in New york at the present time, and my fondest wish would be to have bodywork with Greg right now! Greg is a true master of the art of massage therapy!"

"I worked with Greg seven days a week for over 4 months ... without a doubt the only reason I made it through the New York run of The Elephant Man was Greg's magic! ...We went through a war together"

"Greg, you have made me realize the value of massage. For a long time I thought of massage as an extravagance, an extra, something unnecessary. As I've gotten used to your style of massage I've come face to face with my preconceptions. I want mobility, movement, and freedom in this lifetime as long as my body will allow. With your deep work I feel my body will be mine and not the other way around for a longer period of time. You've helped me realize that our bodies need attention and work, just as our diet, our relationships, and careers. Without an able body we are forced to be less than we can be. That day will arrive, but your work will help me postpone that meeting as long as I can. Thank you for keeping me more in tuned with my body and it's needs. I'm confident that your work will help me retain the physical energy I have and love."

"I found Greg through a recommendation by my therapist in LA, and after just one session I not only felt more aware of my body and my particular areas of pain, I felt completely at ease and comfortable with him and his (incredibly intense!) style of work. I have been dealing with pain in my knee for a few years now, and an MRI gave me nothing other than shame that the pain I was feeling was seemingly unfounded. Greg diagnosed me immediately and went directly to work. It was an enormous relief to feel like my problem was being seen, and even more rewarding to know that it could be treated. The results were astonishing! I will see Greg at every opportunity, and I do not hesitate to recommend you do the same. Thanks Greg! You're wonderful!"

"Without Greg I would still have been carefully dancing the Cassie dance in A Chorus Line in pain. I had been battling a hamstring injury for over a year and Greg cured me in two sessions. His hands are brilliant and the results are magic, and on top of it all...... he's a great conversationalists. He's the man I go to for everything now."

"Greg is one of the greatest people in NYC. And I'm not just saying that because he does all these amazing things to take pain away. I say it because he has a true and deep love for his work, and for the people he works on. His knowledge of the human anatomy, and his care for the human being, is clear in the results after a session with him.

"His work space is also one of the greatest things in New York. It is so wonderfully decorated with treasures from a more peaceful, groovier time. If the work gets a little intense (which sometime it might....) I just open my eyes and always find something new to look at, laugh at or admire.

"I look forward to every single visit with Greg, knowing that I'm going to get some relief in body and mind."

"It's hard to describe Greg's work...but i can tell you to run, (if you can) don't walk, to see him. It's one of the best things you can do for yourself, no matter what you do for a living. Your significant other can give you what most people consider a massage..Greg will change your life. I'm not kidding. He's an amazing person...and bodyworker."

"Greg is not magic. He's hard work. If you have a stubborn issue -- and nothing else seems to bring relief -- Greg is the answer. He is masterful at identifying the root problem, no matter how complex, and he brings a savant-like focus to its remedy. It is not easy. Body work with Greg is the single most intense and focussed experience I've ever willingly endured. And it works. It may not be for everyone but his work is miraculously effective. He has changed my quality of life."

"Greg Miele is, with no exaggeration, the most beneficial massage therapist I have ever had the pleasure of being worked on by. I remember the first time I went to him. I was warned that he does not give the kind of Swedish, spa-style massage that so many of us are used to. He instead, changes you physical makeup; in a good way.I didn't know what to make of it after my first session. I was totally blown away by the feeling of absolute release in muscles that had become adhered and 'glued' together from years of dancing. I was actually nauseous that first night, as he said I would be, because of all of the toxins that were released. It was, in a strange way, a feeling of accomplishment. In sessions following, he never ceased to surprise me with the thoroughness and intensity of his work, He is committed, much as an actor is committed to the work that he or she does on stage. I sometimes want to scream obscenities at him, but I know that when s done with me, I will be a new person. This is the case every time I see him. When he's done, I suddenly feel free again. It's a wonderful feeling.I have to say, truthfully, that if you are a professional performer, and especially if you are a dancer, this is the man to see. I don't know how I survived before I met him. Even if you are someone who sits behind a desk for the majority of the day, his work can benefit you. He releases tensions and relieves damaged, adhered muscles with a skill that can only be believed if you experience it for yourself. I know I sound a little bit like an infomercial, but every word I have said is true. Do yourself a favor...See Greg Miele and understand what real bodywork is supposed to be! I promise you won't regret it!"

"Holy shit I love this guy!! He's amazing! Greg makes me feel so comfortable that I forget he's about to kick my ass!!....Let me tell you...After our hello's, some water from a bendy straw, and some bready fattening deliciousness, I'm up on the table. We're getting all chatty and as soon as I'm all, "Yeah Greg, my new apartment's great...Yeah Greg, the jobs going swell...Yeah Greg".....He's down to work and he's at the root of the problem....I give him my deadliest mean face, we both smile, and we're off....the next hour or so ranges from intense bodywork while I tell him how much I hate him, to warm and fuzzy wonderful (my favorite is when he wraps my feet up with the sheets because my toes always get cold) When I'm done I feel like I've been through battle.....but definitely come out on the winning side! His genuine concern for your well-being is beyond evident. One of Greg's gifts is that he knows how to make you let him get to what you most need work on.....ya know what I'm saying!?! He's helped me prevent injuries I never ever would've seen coming!!!! I love this guy! and you will too! : )"

"Greg Miele keeps me at the top of my game as a Broadway performer. My weekly sessions with him are crucial to my upkeep. I can honestly say that without his expert bodywork, not only my body , but my work, would suffer. He is able to pinpoint problems that come from general overuse versus those that come form deeper patterns of holding tension, and works through them all. He is equally skilled at communicating ways to teach people how to better listen to and take care of their own bodies.

" He is, in short, AMAZING!"

"Greg became my village while I was playing Prior in Angels in America on Broadway. I mean he wasn't merely repairing my body with his genius, intuitive and unparalleled skill as a Massage Therapist. The fact that he's the best bodyworker in NY is the beginning. Working together almost daily, he became a home away from home. I could have spent a 2 hour session just talking with Greg and I would have come out feeling healed. He became my confidante, father, brother… It's actually impossible to explain the mystery of what Greg gives you. Ultimately I leave every session feeling much closer to myself. More intimate not only with my own body but also with more clarity about my inner life, who and where I am essentially on the inside. It's actually a privilege to spend time with Greg and have him work his magic on you. Playing Prior Walter in Angels in America is undoubtedly the most challenging thing I will ever do as an actor. Every day I was haunted by the question "how on earth will I get through this day?" Without Greg I'm not convinced I could have gotten through it without missing multiple shows. I missed none. I'm very proud of that, but much of the praise must be given to Greg and his care. Whether he likes it or not he is now a permanent fixture in my life."

-2018

"Greg will hurt you. If you want. He can be gentle. But it's not worth it. I advise you to use the tools he's been given. He is the strongest man from the elbows down I've ever known and I've known some strong forearmed men. I will uncontrollably call him a c**t at least 11 times throughout a session. I may even threaten to hit him in the face. He has made me cry. And I have paid him for it. with dollars. If you want real work done to your body, if you want to feel genuinely more open, if you want a healthier cared for body, let Greg do his thing! It is worth it every time. On top of which he is a truly unique, soulful, funny, kind , caring and compassionate man. And it's a pleasure to spend time with him whether he is separating your muscles from each other or not. And he provides cupcakes."

-2012

"You must submit to the Greg Miele experience to believe it. Greg breaks my body the fuck down in unspeakably painful ways… but ways that quickly result in an awesome change to my muscles and overall fitness.

I was recommend to Greg twice - first for quad issues from jogging and again for upper back pain that was making life difficult. I finally wised up and booked an appointment. My first experience: muscle torture that turned to painful happiness. A few visits later, my back worked again. Greg didn't offer hot eucalyptus towels, scented candles and whale chirping music – his muscle work is for freaking real.

And that's just the start…. If you keep going, Greg uses his pain superpowers in restorative and preventative ways. It's obvious now, but 40 years of office stress and working out has a cumulative effect – and Greg reversed it.

One further note - once you know Greg, you won't want to work with anybody else. He's as fascinating, warm and funny as it gets - even when he's dispensing his evil pain justice on your little body."

"....in writing a recommendation for greg, the popular 80's tune "Hurts So Good" was the first thing that came into my head. i admit i have a very low threshold for pain, and usually massages are a bit rough- going for me. but greg can find the problem spot and instead of just going for it, he eases his away around it, then to it, so by the time he is finally there, it is welcome, and you know that in a few short minutes you will be relieved. every time i get off the table after working with greg, i feel healed, and not more tense then when i got on which is usually the case. i highly recommend him and his work, and am actually going to try to book an appt. as soon as i type this period."

"I am writing to sing the NEVER ENDING praises of Greg Miele. For over 15 years now,I have trained and worked professionally as an actress, singer and dancer. In addition to that, I have been a competitive,long-distance runner most of my life. Believe it or not, when I first came to Greg in 2002 I had NEVER had any type of massage therapy. I was having terrible trouble with my knee from a running injury, and still having to dance on it 8 shows a week. A dear friend suggested I go see Greg, even though I was totally skeptical and reluctant to do so. I don't mean to sound over-dramatic, but am completely sincere, that visit changed my life. Not only was Greg lovely, warm,patient, and very sensitive and respectful of my tentativeness, but also made me feel completely comfortable and relaxed. Now I won't lie, this is no "oil and rose petal" massage, but he digs in, helps you breathe into and through it, so that the pain becomes productive and healing. Over the past few years, Greg has not only gone on to save both of my knees, legs, my back, shoulders, and neck, but about 8 months ago I began having bouts of vision loss caused by severe migraines. My doctors suggested multiple prescriptions, and that I come in 3 times a month to have shots in various spots on my head. Before I did any of that, I decided to see if Greg could help. Sure enough, he targeted the tension, and after about a month, the headaches had completely subsided. No shots, no pills, just Greg's healing hands. In short, he is an amazing person, who's done wonders for my body, as well as my spirit. I am certain there is no better person for me, and he is the first and only person I would recommend to anyone else."

"Whenever I am working in New York, I try and take advantage of the remarkable services of Greg Miele. It's not a service to particularly enjoy - it's an altogether different kind of experience. Through the pain comes a re-energizing that puts the body into focus. If you're tired, it will wake you up. If you're already awake, it will send you through the roof. I can't recommend him too highly, It's the best bodywork I have ever received throughout my travels! I also enjoy his company tremendously."

"Actions speak louder than words. Greg is an intuitive, caring, agressive, deep, and challenging massage therapist, with an emphasis on the therapist. But he must be experienced to be understood. Open your heart and get ready for an incredible journey. I absolutely love this guy and I'm so grateful he's my friend!"

"Remember that old Nike slogan: “No Pain, No Gain” that everyone loved until, one day, some marketing execs and fitness gurus realized advocating pain was probably not the wisest suggestion for a healthy body? Well, Greg’s work is a lot like that old slogan. He isn’t there to make you feel good - he’s there to change you, to heal you, to make you feel GREAT. Greg’s work is reflective of who he is - deeply intuitive, filled with love, care, and an incredible understanding of the body - both physically and emotionally. I truly look forward to my time with Greg because I always walk away happier, healthier, and more inspired to be GREAT to myself. So I guess in the end, my advice is exactly in line with new insights of those aforementioned gurus and execs: while it may not make sense, and it may not be pleasant, “Just Do It.” Your body and spirit will thank you."

"Greg is a healer. Since meeting him, I have come to learn that all massage therapists should be just that. I don't want you to think he heals you with his energy....that whole "thing". He literally separates your muscles by working on the adhesions that bind them ....and you stand up from the table (a little sore) but with so much more mobility than you walked in with. You feel the improvement instantly. That, to me, is the definition of a healer. Oh, and the conversations don't suck :)"

"I had the distinct privilege to have Greg massage me twice a week for the entire run of The Boy From OZ on Broadway. In fact the physical demands of the show were so great that I am sure I would not have made it through without his expertise. Greg combines an extraordinary knowledge of the body as well as an intimate understanding of the demands of the performer. In my opinion this makes him unique and the top of his field. I continue to work with Greg, most recently in 2011 with Back on Broadway. He's also happens to be a fantastic guy that I'm proud to call my friend."

"After 3 weeks of debilitating pain on one of my knees I broke down and went to go see the highly recommended Greg. After an hour of expert, sensitive, yet vigorous work on muscles I didn't even know I had, I got up off the table and literally skipped home. I'm forever a client. His knowledge is only outweighed by his compassion. I feel lucky to have Greg in my life on so many levels."

Greg Miele is a force of confrontational healing, packaged within a loving, honest personality. Imagine a Knight in Armor that will slay the dreaded Dragon of physical tightness and pain for you! When you close your eyes on Greg's table- that's what's going on. Even if you see a Snoopy figurine out of the corner of your eye.

Cherry Jones generously shared with me her "secret weapon" for how to get through the physical rigors of the live theater schedule - it's Greg!

I can say "ditto" to every single one of his clients online testimonials.

Truth is I want to hoard Greg - and clone him for good measure!

On his table I laugh -because he's f'ing hilarious- and I cry with gratitude for the (occasionally painful) release he's ushering my tight spots through. If you're a singer, you might just hit the famous high C.

Doing 8 shows a week (on a raked stage -in heels!) made my chronic issues into a real problem. Without Greg, I cringe imagining which parts of my body would have given out.

Greg is an ally and an angel, and his deep work made my body able to forge ahead. I am convinced there would be a LOT of Broadway performances just not physically possible without Greg as that Angel, ally, and "secret weapon".

He even taught me about icing my feet after every show & yes his mother's homemade desserts are indeed from Italian Heaven as well.

"I think Greg knows magic. His capacity to find what's wrong in my body and make it right is like some kind of voodoo. Either voodoo or a really comprehensive understanding of anatomy, the
interconnectedness of our muscles, and how where it hurts might only be the starting point for where he needs to do his work. I've been to a whole lot of massage therapists, and I have never been able to find someone who can dig in deep enough and make it hurt so good that it actually gets better. What he does is closer to physical therapy than massage, and man, am I ever grateful to have him to call when I need him!"

"I have worked with world-class performers for over two decades, and Greg is as good at what he does as anyone that I have ever experienced do their thing. He is the Michael Jordan, the Muhammad Ali, and the James Brown of bodywork all rolled into one. The man is a heaven-sent wizard with those magical hands. Holy sweet Moses it hurts, and sometimes I want to punch him mid-session in retribution, but he keeps me laughing while I man-cry, and the relief that my body gets is worth every single second. Kind-hearted, tough, sweet, and brilliant, he has to be experienced to be believed, but once you do you will never go anywhere else."

"I first met Greg in 2001 when I was dancing in the Broadway show "The Producers". I had been suffering from severe tendonitis in my knee and was much in need for serious bodywork. I was referred to Greg and the healing began. The phrase "born to do it" comes to mind when I think of Greg and his work. There is magic and strength in his hands like none other I have ever known. Greg got me through so many tough times, muscularly, and my body has been holding up well ever since. I now know to always go to Greg when my body is telling me that something is off inside. He seems to find the problem right away and can flush those muscle demons right out. His easy going nature and genuine kindness is also an essential key to Greg's success as a therapist. I have complete trust in his knowledge and abilities and he has enabled me to perform rigorous routines 8 times a week on Broadway."

Check back later for the testimonial...

“Every time I’m in New York,
Greg beats the hell out of me. It’s fantastic.”

"I don't remember how I found out about Greg. I think I was given a certificate as a gift. I had no idea what I was in for. Greg is the real deal. When I go to him, I always feel better for weeks. He's helped me overcome so many injuries over the years. I was told repeatedly that they were injuries that I was going to have to live with. Then I met Greg, and he truly helped me with my quality of life. I've recommended him to several friends who love the work he does as much as I do. He's a life saver and a great guy. A client for life"

"Greg beat me senseless and I paid him for it. I cursed him and he laughed. I went to him broken and he took me apart and put me back together. There are VERY few who have the skill, knowledge, and intuitive sense that he does. He is the cure for what ails ya... His work changed my life"

"Greg's bodywork has saved me time and time again. Performing the same show 8 times a week can be incredibly taxing on you muscles. But because of his extensive experience and personal attention, Greg is able to go directly to the source of any physical issue/pain that you might be experiencing and he cures it. (And as a bonus, he's a really cool dude!)

You can try many different types of body work: stretch-classes, yoga, physical therapy, "deep tissue", hot-stone massage and acupuncture. NOTHING compares to what Greg is able to accomplish in his sessions. The health of my body is paramount and I trust Greg to assure that health. THANKS!"

"Where to start other than to say that I'm incredibly fortunate to know the one and only Greg Miele. Amazing body worker, amazing human being. He's been able to skillfully work through the tension in my neck and back by addressing my body as a connected whole -- from quads to IT bands to calf muscles. The insane soreness and pain are always worth it. My body feels healthy, open, more flexible and more resilient. I look forward to many, many more 90 minute "brunch" sessions with Greg."

"I highly recommend Greg Miele as a massage therapist, particularly if you have a certain injury or area that needs attending to. He will get right in there, get straight to problem and sort it out. Sometimes I'm pretty sore the next day, but then I feel a million times better and it's all completely worth it because he fixed the issue. Greg is a nice, thorough, professional guy that will definitely alleviate your pain."

"Working with Greg truly is a life changing experience. It is a testament to those who work with him regularly because it does require commitment. Commitment to physical health and long term well being. I always tell others who have not worked with him that it is going to “change” the way you look at body work. Too often we think a “Massage” should be an enjoyable and stress relieving activity, but when you work with Greg you realize that it is MUCH MUCH more than that. It is not what I would call a “relaxing” time but an unbelievable gift to give your body. I have never worked with anyone who can get results in the time that Greg can achieve them. I have had some very difficult and painful injuries and at times it could get very depressing. One or two sessions with this brilliant man takes not only much of my pain away, but also alleviates some of the fear that can accompany any injury. After my first experience working with Greg, there was a freedom in the muscles that allowed my ailing back and joints to experience maximum freedom and minimal pain that really lasted. If you're experiencing a muscle or skeletal injury there is nobody else you should go to for this work. He is thorough, he is intelligent and he has a way of helping his clients really appreciate the body and gifts they were given. He truly cares about his client’s well being but he also has the knowledge and the skill to really make change in your life. Greg is a gift to all of us he has helped and if you value your body you will let him make the difference in your life that you deserve. Get the work done that is TRULY going to benefit you."

"Ok. So I'm reading these gushing testimonials and I'm thinking are these people deranged and out of their mind?! Having been to Greg many times to help me get through performances etc I can genuinely say that I have never ever experienced such searing pain. The man is a fully paid up member of the massage Gestapo. This however might say more about the quality of my muscles and my natural English reserve than Greg's expertise, which I'm pained to say is pretty nigh on the best massage you or me are ever likely to receive. If you want a sandalwood scented stroke go to Bliss, if it's serious work you're after then Mr. Miele is the best in town bar none. He also does a fine line in sarcasm and cup cakes"

"Greg knows exactly what the body needs. I've been fortunate enough to have him as my massage therapist since 2010-I don't know what I'd do without his magic hands! I usually walk in with feeling like beef jerky and after he's done beating me with love, I feel ready for the Olympics. It's intense, and you might cry- but you'll wanna do it all over again and again and again...."

"I started working with Greg in 2012 because I was having a specific problem with my shoulder. By the time I'd spent three months with him, my shoulder felt amazing, and so did many other parts of my body that I didn't even know were hurting before (that is not supposed to sound dirty so if it does to you, knock it off). Greg's knowledge of our muscles and our skeletal structure and of how our behavior affects the way we feel and move boarders on the profound. I consider my time spent with him in the same way I consider the time I spent in some of my favorite classes in grad school: the chance to study with a specialist who helps you break some habits, see things in a different way and arms you with the ability to solve a few of your problems on your own when you couldn't before. An appointment with Greg is NOT A DAY AT THE SPA, but it is heaven if you really want to make a change."

"I was an athlete as a kid and fought through many injuries. As a result I have to stay on top of things in my adult life in order to stay active and fit. Greg Miele is essential in that. My first session with him was in 2001. His bodywork is the perfect hybrid between physical therapy, deep tissue massage, and Rolfing. Greg understands how to release old triggers, and how to break up scar tissue. For anyone living a highly active life, Greg's work will become something you cannot live without."

"As a dancer, I push my body to the limits everyday. I can honestly say that if it weren't for Greg, I would not be able to have the dance career I do. The kind of work Greg does is... well... intense. I admit, at first I was a little intimidated. But I quickly learned to have faith in his incredible talent and the results were mind blowing. What he does is magic! Thanks for everything Greg! You're the best! "

"Greg has literally saved my life. You think I'm kidding. You think I'm exaggerating. You are wrong. I have chronic neck, back and jaw pain, for various reasons that are unimportant, what is important is that Greg has saved me. I am addicted to him, his hands are magic, healing. I have tried many, many massage therapists in my life, and no one, NO ONE, can compare to him. When I go out of town I am so depressed that I know my body won't be feeling great until I am back in town and on his table and in his presence. Greg is not only a massage genius, he is an incredible person, who cares so much about the work he is doing and how you feel after seeing him. He always wants to make sure you feel as though you have really gotten 'some work done' ... he's not one for the "spa massage" you know, the kind that doesn't relax you and doesn't make you feel any relief from your pain...So If true relief from your pain is what you are after..then Greg is your man...If you want your life to change through bodywork... Greg is your man...If you want to feel better, run do not walk to Greg . Please do not misunderstand me. This is not hyperbole. This is quite simply the truth."

"Greg has magical powers. Serious powers that fix, heal, renew, and reinvigorate. He gets rid of all the aches and pains. He's put my body back together and kept it in optimal condition so that I could go out and wreck it again. He definitely makes it possible for me to keep flying, jumping, tumbling, spinning, dancing, and doing me. I have so much admiration and respect for him and I am forever grateful!! "

"I worked with Greg regularly when I was doing 8 shows a week on Broadway. It was very demanding vocally and Greg's jaw and throat work was a vital and necessary part of my weekly routine. He was able to do such deep thorough work, yet very specific. It was amazing how much freedom I would gain after our sessions. I trusted him completely and he never failed me. He's a positive person, has a calm disposition, and is very knowledgeable."

"Greg is irreplaceable in helping me get through the extremely physical role of Lola in Kinky Boots. I wouldn't be walking, let alone dancing in six inch heels 8-shows-a-week without Greg's healing hands. He's a master of the highest order. He has been working his magic on me since 2002.. You will definitely feel like you're getting some work done...."

"The last time I saw Greg Miele in New York I told him he has a gift. In his humble and self-effacing nature - he didn't want to hear it... so I will tell anyone reading this testimonial: Greg Miele has a gift. Of understanding. Of intuition. Of healing. My awareness of - and connection to - my body is significantly enhanced during the time I work with Greg on a weekly basis. My creative process is deepened - and the physical toll of eight shows a week is lessened every time I see him. The work is not always comfortable (in fact sometimes it is inordinately painful) but it is deep and profound and invaluable to any artist who relies on his or her body to tell stories. Also - he is a lovely, beautiful human being. Which is always good to remember when you are writhing in pain and screaming for mercy on his table. Just kidding... sort of."

"There is only one problem you will have when you start seeing Greg ... YOU WILL NEVER WANT TO GET A MASSAGE OR BODYWORK FROM ANYONE ELSE!!!! He raises the bar that high. He is incredibly special."

"Greg Miele is the best body work specialist I have ever seen, and being a professional performer since 1990, I have seen many. Others may be more tranquil, others may impress your senses with scented oils and Enya, Greg will take you to what is wrong and fix it (and do it to a kick ass cover of Under My Skin by Dinah Washington). His sensitivity and humor in dealing with the balance between emotional and physical alignment are a huge part of why he is my choice. I am lucky to have been on his roster since 1998 and will continue to be for as long as I can move."

"It's one hell of a hard task putting Greg's bodywork into words. Greg brings a new meaning to the phrase - "No pain... No gain". The reality of what Greg does for people is a matter of "What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger"... and I'm referring to what happens ON the table.

" I was dancing with the show Tap Dogs when I first met Greg in NYC. He joined up with us as our PT and toured with us throughout the world as part of our dance company.

"Greg is a miracle worker, who has pulled me through the toughest times. When I was down for the count Greg lifted me up and got me back on my feet. Receiving regular body work from Greg was a blessing and undoubtedly played an invaluable part in preventing injuries. I have the greatest respect for Greg - he is number 1 - The best. I would recommend Greg to a bus - anyone seeking the best bodywork around should see him. He understands the body, is a great communicator and a top notch bloke."

"One of the best Christmas presents I have ever received was the gift of Greg Miele. His extensive knowledge of the body always amazes me; he can read tension with phenomenal precision, relieving not only the symptoms but the underlying causes. And his presence is fantastic: relaxing, friendly, and comforting. Unlike most “massages,” whose effects are fleeting, Greg’s bodywork actually has lasting results—he’s a true healer. I would never take on another Broadway show without him!"

"I've been working with Greg since 2007 and I'm not exaggerating when I say there have been some weeks where Greg's work is the only reason I've been able to perform. He possesses a wealth of knowledge that continues to surprise me - even after nearly a decade of knowing and working with him - and a depth of skill that bears obviously perceptible results. When one of my friends is injured or in pain he is always, always, my first recommendation, and there is no way of expressing in writing how much I truly value his abilities and his care. "

"Greg Miele has helped to keep me running, swimming, weight training, and fencing since 1999. His "hands on" approach to my over used muscles has been an invaluable adjunct to my over all training program. He understands my passion for competitive fencing and his bodywork has enabled me to compete on the national level with renewed muscular health."

"Playing the piano for most of my life has screwed up back, and going to the gym ruins the rest of my body. Greg is able to pinpoint where the pain is radiating from and release it, without fail. Since 2000 he's addressed, and fixed, problems i've had in my chest, arm, shoulder, neck, back, quad.....He is the only bodyworker i have ever been to that has been able to truly do this, and therefore he's the only one i go to, and the only one i recommend to all my colleagues. ....I'm also able to exercise my vocal chords during the session by often screaming, 'Ow! That hurts, you motherf*cker!'"

"I had a physically punishing Broadway Season schedule, but twice a week Greg kept me in balance and invigorated. He was highly attuned to my specific needs but also set up long term beneficial challenges to the work my normal offstage body yearned for. Sometimes it hurt, but it was always a fabulous healing kind of hurt. It was just my overworked frame responding to the masterly congenial medical know-how he brought so effectively to our sessions. He's smart, practical and brave..."

"As a performer in the industry, my body is constantly challenged and pushed to its limitations, causing all kinds of inhibiting stress that can become unbearable. This makes it quite difficult to do my job well, much less go about my day; even just walking can be arduous sometimes.

This is when Mr. Miele comes into play! Though, every time I find myself in the midst of his intense bodywork, I ask myself the same question: Why have I returned to this pain and suffering?! Well...

...the answer makes itself apparent almost immediately following and, in some cases, during the session. The amount of relief that is accomplished in only one hour astounds me each time! As much of a struggle as it may be, he guides you through it all with the knowledge of his craft and the humor that he brings to the table. Literally. The results supersede any "pain and suffering" that I might have experienced. I can always expect a very efficient job well done. After only a few days, I feel as though I have acquired a brand new set of fully functional muscles, and it feels incredible!

There aren't enough words to describe what a pleasure it is to have Greg physically work out my problems...you must experience this on your own to fully understand. Not only does the aching of my previously knotted muscles dissipate, but I feel happier, healthier, and all around much more relaxed. I can't thank him enough for the help he has given me, and I will continue to entrust him with the well-being of my body."

"I have never used obscenities more frequently than on Greg's table! but I love him, and I would trust my bodywork to no one else. He has this unbelievable ability to locate every single problem area in your body and then he will address that area with his magic hands! I will never find anything that can even come close to the experience I get with Greg. He is always there to welcome you with a smile, words of wisdom, and a cupcake! He has an incredible knowledge of the body and how it works, so you always feel comfortable with him working your muscles back to health. Seriously though, he does wonders for the body, and more importantly, the soul. After a session with Greg my body and mind feel like they are on the right and same track. He is the definition of proper."

"Greg doesn't just do proper work, he has a gift. Accessing and addressing the heart of what is lodged in the body, this is a massage for those who are ready to return to their ultimate and natural state of well-being. He has changed my quality of life significantly and more than I ever thought possible. You will leave with only two words to say; Thank You."

"Greg Miele is as knowledgeable about the body as anyone I've ever worked with. He not only heals my various injuries, but helps me prevent them recurring. You'll know immediately you're in the hands of someone with a great instinct for finding the problem, the expertise and experience to recognize it's origin, and the talent and strength to fix it. The guy's got the gift. "

“I have been to several massage therapists in my life and the bottom line is that no one compares to Greg. His ability to locate and treat the precise spots on your body that require attention and relaxation is truly incredible and unparalleled. He has a true knowledge of the body and is incredibly meticulous in his technique. Every time I leave a session with Greg, I feel nothing but relieved and aligned. His attention to detail and genuine personal concern for his clients makes him the best that is out there. I have never once left Greg any less than 110% satisfied and recommend him to anyone and everyone in New York City and beyond...and he also happens to be a terrific guy!”

"Greg's bodywork helped me incredibly when I was performing 8 shows a week on stage with a period corset. He understands the physical demands of a Broadway show and gave me some great tips on how to handle it."

"I've been seeing Greg on and off since 2012. I found in my sessions with Greg a restorative release and path forward from troubling back, shoulder and neck issues exacerbated by the weekly grind of theater. The actor is an athlete with the exception that we play eight games a week. Greg's approach is indeed intense and not for the feint of heart, but it's highly productive and rejuvenating. His holistic knowledge of the body coupled with his vast experience makes his work immediately effective. There are many elements to the sustainability of my craft, and Greg's bodywork is certainly one of them. I also just happen to enjoy his company tremendously."

"If you are looking for a therapist to help you through serious body issues or maintenance, you don't have to look any further. As a performer and athlete I have worked with many physical therapists and I have never met someone as knowledgeable and caring as Greg. Even through the occasional and necessary pain of the work, Greg will guide and help you through anything. Additionally, he is a great teacher and will explain why even one muscle being tight can put you in a bad way. His dedication kept me injury free during intense and challenging performance schedules. Your search is over."

"My first session with Greg was unlike any other I had experienced and it's for that reason that I continue to see him for work. Being a swing is a difficult job especially when you're called onstage at the last minute so it's Greg's work that has gotten me through some pretty painful times and it keeps me going today. The sessions are personal as he talks you through it and he does a great job at explaining what is going on during the process. This isn't a "little rub on your back to make you feel better" but more of a "digging deep to fix the root of the problem" type of massage. Definitely not for the faint of heart but if you want to fix serious issues you should totally schedule an appointment! "

"Greg is, without doubt, the best masseur / bodyworker / healer ( not sure what you like to be called Greg ... ? ) I have ever come across. And I've looked far and wide. What I like best is that he doesn't dither about - he gets straight to the heart of the matter. It can be surprising, even painful at first, but quickly becomes addictive. I could not have got though the run of The Crucible without him. He's absolutely attentive, intuitive, precise and powerful; and also a thoughtful, funny, darling man. I would have him come everywhere with me if I could.. I just love him so much."

"Greg is a healer!! After a session with him I could do eight shows a week. And I'm not even a dancer! ...Seriously..He's helped me tremendously with my pain."

"As sweet as the cupcakes he rewards you with, as tough as you pray he won't be, and with the awareness and body intellect you pray he'll have, Greg is a one of a kind bodyworker. It's a massage minus any wishywashy-ness or luxuriating. It's therapy without your therapist checking his watch because your problems are boring. Greg takes your problems seriously and seriously beats them out of you. And while it's happening you wonder why you ever came back for more...and then you get a cupcake, and you feel less pain, and lighter, and understood, and then you come back for more."
