After minor knee surgery, I was riddled with muscle and nerve pain. Physical therapy did little to increase my mobility. I was despairing, because I was worse instead of better, using my knee less instead of more.
I entered Joyce Kent's massage office limping slowly, and left an hour and a half later walking normally. I feel like I got my life back! I was able to tour all over on my vacation, visiting museums, beaches, and botanical gardens--occasionally grabbing a park bench to rest my knee, but walking more than I had in four months.
With Joyce's help, I am recovering a full mobility that doctors, physical therapists, and exercise regimes couldn't offer alone. Thank you, Joyce!

I have always sought alternative methods of body healing after being involved in athletics and martial arts for most of my adult life as well as suffering from migraines ever since I was a child. Massage has always been part of my regimen, but as you can imagine trusting someone, as well as finding someone who actually helps you is rare.
Joyce is one of those rare individuals and I would not let anyone else perform healing massage on me after working with Joyce. I have been going to Joyce for years now, after first working with her when she was working for Massage Envy at Nanuet. She is the consummate professional, but has an air about her that makes you feel instantly at ease. She asks detailed questions of what you may be suffering from, takes a detailed history from you, and works with you to determine what areas you should focus on. She is always flexible in making appointments and works with me to make appointments that both work for her and for me.
Recently I suffered from a fractured rib, and was healing for nearly 2 months. The toll it took on my body, difficulty breathing, favoring the side where the rib was fractured, my whole upper body was off and the effect on my muscles, mostly in my upper body was terrible. After the rib finally healed, I still suffered from serious discomfort in my left side. I explained it to Joyce, and after two visits the discomfort I was feeling was practically gone. After two more visits the pain has not returned for over a year.
I have suffered from migraine headaches ever since I was a child. I have “been on the table” while suffering from the onset of a migraine. I told Joyce at the beginning of the session what was going on, and by the end of the session my headache was gone, and did not return.
For anyone who suffers from migraines, you know what a relief both physically and emotionally that is, and because of Joyce, I can manage my migraines more effectively. Again her talent as a massage therapist and her willingness to work with you on scheduling appointments is a tremendous relief as you never know when a migraine is going to come on, but if one does, I HIGHLY recommend Joyce Kent at Transformational Touch Massage.

Hi, Howard-
I wanted to write to you to let you know about how my massage therapist, a "disciple" of yours, and how amazing she is. My therapist is Joyce, who currently works at "Massage Envy", in Nanuet, NY.
I came to Joyce by the luck if the draw, when I walked into "Massager Envy", because I did not have a massage therapist who could address my chronic pain. I had worked with all forms of alternative medicine, acupuncture, chiropractors, and Pilates, all unsuccessful in treating or alleviating my sometimes intense pain. I had even found, after massage, I would cramp more, later after the massage, making it worse in the long run.
To make a long story short, Joyce identified the anatomy which was troublesome, and went to work on the various muscles and trigger points which she thought were the culprits. While she worked her magic, she was telling me about you and how much she learned from you, so enthusiastically.
I have since been to Joyce regularly, several times, and plan to continue. I have also brought several people to Joyce, because she is that good. They, too, have signed on to continue with Joyce going forward. Joyce, as humble as she is, credits you when she is complimented. I thought you should know that.
I thought it would be good to let you know how wonderful your student, whom I have had the privilege to have work on me, and so many others of my friends and family, is.
I have had massages in some of the most renound spas and by some of the most highly recommended massage therapists, nationally and even internationally. I have never had anyone who has been as dedicated and healing as Joyce. Each massage is tailored to my needs, both those I convey and those she somehow intuits!
I am so much better now. My pain is greatly lessened, and I thoroughly enjoy each massage experience with Joyce! I have been singing her praises to everyone I know. I thought it was time to let her teacher, whom she so respects and credits, know what a tribute she is to you!
Thank you for your part in this healing chain. Please continue your good work.
Very Sincerely,
Jody Innerfield
