Kaivalya Bodywork

Raffi is a massage magician! I have had chronic, SI pain, every day, for years. At our first session, he quickly recognized a postural issue that my doctor and chiropractor have been missing. It was causing the problem! I left my 90 minute sports massage PAIN-FREE and am still pain free thanks to the time he took to educate me on what exercises will aggravate my condition and what will keep it at bay. He has clearly devoted himself to learning as much as possible about the human body, and how to make it experience the world more gently. If you are looking for a deep-tissue massage with results, or for help with chronic pain, I highly recommend Raffi Kaivalya Bodywork. I am now standing pain-free and DRIVING pain free for the first time in fifteen years. I am so very grateful!

I've been a client of Raffi's for several years now, and I still go despite the fact that I live in Boxborough and his office is in Watertown. It's worth the extra drive to work with Raffi. Not only is he extremely talented at what he does, but he's also just a really genuinely good person. He really cares about his customers and takes time to listen. I have recommended Raffi to many of my friends and acquaintances. I look forward to my next session with him!

Raffi is great. I've been having some hip pain, saw him a few times and feel much better. I went for a run right after seeing Raffi and had the best run of my marathon training! Not sure what he did, but I was flying out there (relatively speaking) for nine miles.

I have been fortunate enough to be a client of Raffi’s since he first started his massage therapy practice. His practice has deepened as he learned and incorporated new bodywork techniques. Raffi is so much more than a masseuse. He is a wise observer, keen listener and deep thinker. He had a natural healing gift from the start and has developed that into a profoundly therapeutic, individualized approach to body mechanics and healing.

Im a licensed massage therapist myself, and I am extremely impressed with Raffi's knowledge, perceptiveness, and touch. He certainly knows how to listen, look, feel, and make profound yet gentle changes to the body. I will definitely be back, even if just to learn more from him!
