New York, NY - July 15, 2025 - Body Mechanics Orthopedic Massage, a leading provider of clinical massage therapy in Manhattan, has officially launched its new Functional Massage Therapy program, aimed at clients struggling with chronic pain, poor mobility, and movement-based dysfunctions. Known for its advanced orthopedic techniques and science-backed approach, Body Mechanics now offers this innovative service at its 34th Street and 54th Street clinic locations in Midtown Manhattan.
Designed to bridge the gap between traditional massage and rehabilitative therapy, Functional Massage Therapy focuses on resolving the underlying causes of musculoskeletal issues—not just their symptoms. The new program is already receiving praise from local clients who are finding long-awaited relief from long-term discomfort.
A Targeted Solution for Chronic Pain
Body Mechanics Orthopedic Massage developed this new modality to meet the growing demand for pain management services that address the root causes of dysfunction. Functional Massage Therapy blends a combination of manual techniques—including myofascial release, trigger point therapy, and PNF stretching—with postural assessments and movement evaluations.
The goal? To go beyond relaxation and deliver long-term results by improving how the body functions.
“We’re redefining what massage can do,” says Beret Loncar, founder and clinical director at Body Mechanics Orthopedic Massage. “Too often, clients are left cycling through temporary relief. Functional Massage Therapy is different—it’s personalized, assessment-driven care that aims to restore mobility and retrain patterns that contribute to chronic pain.”
Whether it’s desk-related neck strain, lower back pain from poor posture, or persistent tension from repetitive movements, Body Mechanics’ therapists now offer a solution grounded in functional anatomy and client education.
Built for Real-Life Results
Functional Massage Therapy is uniquely suited for a variety of concerns, including:
✔️ Chronic neck and back pain ✔️ TMJ dysfunction and jaw tension ✔️ Migraine and tension headaches ✔️ Sciatic nerve compression ✔️ Fibromyalgia and myofascial sensitivity ✔️ Poor posture and alignment-related strain ✔️ Repetitive strain injuries ✔️ Pre- and post-surgical mobility recovery
Each session begins with a clinical intake and movement screening, followed by focused hands-on treatment. The session concludes with therapist feedback and recommendations for at-home posture correction, stretching, or movement strategies.
This holistic approach ensures that every session is functional, effective, and tailored to the client’s daily lifestyle needs.
A Reputation for Excellence
Body Mechanics Orthopedic Massage has earned a reputation as one of Manhattan’s most trusted massage therapy clinics, with hundreds of glowing reviews on platforms like Google, Yelp, and Trustindex.
One client shared:
“This is not your average massage. It’s a targeted experience that feels like physical therapy and bodywork combined. I’ve had chronic shoulder pain for years, and one session here provided more relief than months of other treatments.”
Another reviewer wrote:
“The therapists actually listen and teach you about your body. My TMJ and neck pain have dramatically improved.”
With a consistent 4.9-star rating, Body Mechanics stands out in a saturated market by offering medically grounded, results-driven care—not spa fluff.
Expert Staff and Clinical Environment
Each Functional Massage Therapy session is delivered by licensed massage therapists with advanced training in movement anatomy, injury prevention, and orthopedic conditions. Therapists undergo rigorous internal training designed by Beret Loncar and are committed to clinical excellence and continued education.
“Our therapists don’t just follow routines—they assess, treat, and adapt,” Loncar adds. “We hire for intelligence and passion, and it shows in the quality of care.”
The clinic environment itself is designed to support healing. Located at 1 W 34th St. near the Empire State Building, the flagship office offers a clean, vintage-medical-themed atmosphere with private treatment rooms named “Anatomy,” “Doctors’ Den,” and “Library.” It’s a secure medical building with elevator access and weekend buzz-in entry.
A Resource for Movement, Not Just Massage
In addition to Functional Massage Therapy, Body Mechanics offers a full suite of services including sports massage, prenatal massage, TMJ-focused work, and lymphatic drainage. Each modality is rooted in therapeutic outcomes and developed to meet the needs of Manhattan’s active, high-demand population.
“Our goal has always been to educate and empower clients to live better in their bodies,” says Loncar. “Functional Massage Therapy is just the latest way we’re doing that—by helping people move through life with less pain and more freedom.”
