I've never seen a massage therapist like Kathleen in terms of her ability to get to the core of whatever's bothering you. I came to her with a particular part of my back that was constantly sore from years of schlepping around heavy shoulder bags. She got to the root of the problem within a few sessions after all that built-up pain, and now I can just go in whenever I want for a "touch-up". Before that, I was truly afraid I was going to have to stop carrying any shoulder bag, no matter how light! I also asked her about an issue I had been noticing for a long time with a muscle near my knee. She helped me understand what was going on in terms of where the muscle connected to, massaged the area, and, since I love to stretch, gave me an exercise to help as well. All better. Another thing that's a really important part of her massage is that every so often she checks in with you to make sure that the pressure is a good level for you. If you've ever had a massage from someone who just sails along without checking, you have found out the hard way what I'm talking about. And it's not just me who is crazy about Kathleen. My husband is not much of a Yelp user so I must report on his behalf. He's been going to Kathleen for many years - 12? 16? - sorry, can't remember. The thing is, I love to see that look of contentment on his face when he comes home from a session with Kathleen. We both love her. read more

Kathleen is the best! She is so down to earth and very skilled at deep tissue massage. I was dealing with some neck and back pain for a few months, and she was able to get all of my knots out. She will definitely be my go-to massage therapist from now on. read more

I've been dealing with an assortment of health and stress issues for years, much of which I've been holding in my neck, head, shoulders and back. Since it had been a long time since I've had a massage, I made an appointment with Kathleen for an 80 minute session based on her glowing reviews. She has an easygoing personality and made me feel comfortable from the get-go. Kathleen explained the different massage techniques that she uses and after asking which areas of my body I wanted her to focus on, she went straight to work on my muscles, customizing along the way. Kathleen indicated where my trigger points were and told me that if they're not taken care of early on, they can take root and spread. That certainly explained why my body felt like it slowly turning into stone. By the end of the session, I had completely melted into the massage table and was able to move my neck and shoulders freely again. Needless to say, I booked another appointment right away! I recommend that you do the same! read more

My very first massage was amazing! Thank you Kathleen! I feel like a new woman. I love your knowledge of how the body works through trigger points. You were able to figure out exactly where the root of my shoulder pain was was coming from now you know how to fix it, I can't wait next week. My lymphatic system is very happy right now too. I can actually see my ankle bones and my knuckles. I'm hooked. I am so glad I found you. See you next week. Ann read more

Kathleen is by far the best that Queens has to offer! Her hands worked magic on my stubborn areas after surgery and I couldn't be happier with the results! It's an all around win win and if you aren't booked with her, you aren't booked with the best! AAAA++++ read more

I have been going to Ms. Vincent for almost 3 years now. She is an outstanding therapist. When I started I had an aching wrist from an injury as a child, tennis elbow and a bad shoulder. None of which I have any more. Massage therapy is great for the body as well as the mind, and Kathleen is excellent at her craft. The office is very clean, the prices are more than reasonable, and Kathleen is kind, thoughtful and attentive! I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to heal an injury, or add massage therapy to their health and wellness regimen. Lauren T. Bayside N.Y. read more

Woke up one morning with excrutiating pain that seemed to be coming from my shoulder, radiating down my arm. I couldn't raise my left arm. After going to an orthopedist for an x-ray, then to the PT therapy, the pain level was still intense. I switched PT place for another, hoping to get relief. Both PT initial consultants diagnosed my crippling pain as "tendonitis, possible torn tendon", one PT suggested I would be facing surgery!!! A couple of other diagnoses. When I couldn't get relief through these two different PT appointments, I tried chiropractic. Waste of time!!! Found Kathleen's name online, desperately searching (after a weary and frustrating and painful month!!) and thought the myofascial release technique could be a strategy to get me out of the crippling and very sharp pains. Well, within 5 minutes of me showing Kathleen where my pain was, this woman did not need an MRI or x-ray or any other evaluation testing. She zoomed into the trigger points in the shoulder blade (and found many others connected to it) and began my therapy. After 5 visits, major---MAJOR healing is taking place!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't even begin to explain this miracle in finding her! Someone who knows the muscles and tendons and all the 'ropy' connections that get twisted into knots that pull on the other tendons that then trigger crippling pain!! What a magician she is. And yes, she is expert in knowing where to find the trigger points and the exact pressure necessary to break them down. I am now, almost pain free! She made me aware of what I needed to do to correct the situation that had brewed into this physical disability and if you follow her instructions and see her regularly, she gets your body into healing mode!!! What a treasure she is!!! read more

If I could rate 10 stars, I would! Kathleen is absolutely awesome. For several months I had been suffering with Lymphedema when a friend recommended I go to Kathleen.

The total experience was exceptional!! read more

Kathleen is a true professional. In all my years receiving therapeutic massages I have yet to see a person as engaged as her. She took her time with each trigger point and walked me through her techniques including lymphatic drainage, Swedish and deep tissue. She went IN. Before I was off the massage table, Kathleen made sure I understood the long term benefits of massage for the body and the mind. read more

Kathleen is amazing, a miracle worker. I woke up earlier in the week with a stiff neck, days later the pain was still there. It was to the point I could barely move my neck, everything hurt when I moved. I didn't know what to do or what to try and then someone suggested massage therapy. I found Kathleen through yelp; I called her in the morning and she got me in that afternoon. I left her office feeing amazing. I can't wait for my next appointment. Trust me, go see Kathleen, you will not be disappointed!!!! read more

About 4 weeks ago I was overcome with crippling sciatica/ back pain. I couldn't do very much except scream in agony and pray that this pain would leave me. Well, thanks to Kathleen .. my prayers were answered! Kathleen is a true professional who listens to her clients concerns and helps put them at ease. If you are in pain, have anxiety , stressed or just want to focus on your wellness - definitely set up an appointment with Kathleen! Her golden hands will work magic on you : ) read more

My first massage with Kathleen was AH-MAZING. She has a strong and firm hand so that she can really get those knots. You can tell that she has been trained well because when massaging the face she goes along the lymphatic drainage and knows all the pressure points. Instead of focusing on each body part for equal amounts of time, she assessed my problem areas and focused on them more. She was able to do a full body in 60 minutes and spend enough time in my tense areas. For next time I will definitely be booking 1.5 hours though! read more

Kathleen is gifted!! Her hands are like magic. I walk in hunched over and sore and walk out walking tall and 100% better! Her office is so relaxing and comfortable. She has a very easy, kind and humorous way about her that really suits me. I recommend her highly for body aches or just a delightful and pleasurable message. Her price is reasonable, her schedule flexible. Treat yourself! read more

Kathleen was great...in a couple of sessions, aches and pains were relieved. She adjusts therapy for your particular situation.
