Anne gives the greatest massages.... so relaxing you will forget that you are pregnant and uncomfortable! I have recommended her to a number of friends and all have been impressed with her!
I loved the prenatal massages, they were one of the highlights of my pregnancy. Anne has such a calming effect and knew just what to do with any of my aches and pains. I have highly recommended her to all of my pregnant friends and have only heard rave reviews. I just wish she was out in the burbs with me now, since i moved out of NYC.
I felt really in good hands with Anne; the hour seems to be over within minutes; she knows her business very well and knows what parts of the body to work on; this is not a fancy massage center, so you don't pay extra for appearance; still the atmosphere is very welcoming and relaxing
Getting massages by Anne has been one of my favorite things during this pregnancy. What can I say - it feels great. She's the best and I keep going back. I feel like I'm in good hands in every sense with Anne and completely trust her. I highly recommend Anne to any pregnant women out there thinking about getting a prenatal massage.
Annie is an amazing, therapist who is very attuned to the aches and pains of pregnancy. I still have yet to find as good of a non-prenatal massage in the city. Makes me want to be pregnant again (almost)!
I love the cozy cocoon of Annie's office and I felt very pampered and cared for.
Anne Heckheimer is an outstanding massage therapist. I suffer from scoliosis and was very worried about the effect of pregnancy on my spine. I was fortunate to have had a wonderful pregnancy, and attribute that in large part to the relaxing massage sessions I had with Anne. Anne gently worked out the knots in my neck, shoulders, and upper and lower back. She was always kind, professional ,and knowledgeable. I looked forward to our sessions and referred my other pregnant friends and acquaintances to her. I recommend Anne without hesitation or reservation. Finallly, I suggest you book sessions with her early and often -- especially if you work from 9-5 -- because her evening slots fill up fast.
