Founded in 2001 by Anne Heckheimer, this Upper West Side practice does almost nothing except perinatal work. Heckheimer is a New York State licensed massage therapist certified in fertility, prenatal, postpartum and infant massage, Arvigo abdominal therapy, Restore Your Core, Body Ready Method and Spinning Babies body balancing. The center runs two Upper West Side rooms, at 231 West 96th Street and 141 West 72nd Street, with a small team of licensed therapists.
Sessions target the usual pregnancy complaints: backache, sciatica, leg cramps, heartburn, fatigue. Beyond massage there is body balancing for fetal positioning, abdominal therapy, plus partner massage and yoga for labor classes, which makes it useful for clients preparing for birth rather than just unwinding. Expect an office setting, not a candlelit spa, and book by phone or email well ahead.
