Your body holds a magical ability to heal from pain…

Hi, I'm Maddie, the founder of Manual Movement Therapy. Blending my skills as a Licensed Massage Therapist with my expertise as a Certified Personal Trainer, I've designed a distinctive healing approach.

Ever felt the wonder of your body's inherent ability to recalibrate and heal?

While what I offer might not be “magic”, I guide you in unlocking that innate potential. Drawing from my dual expertise as a Licensed Massage Therapist and Certified Personal Trainer, I've dedicated over a decade to honing an approach that understands the body's cues – think of it as fine-tuning a marionette puppet.

My journey battling an autoimmune disease has gifted me unparalleled insights into exercise, massage, and pain management. After years of refining, I've crafted an approach merging movement and touch, designed to tackle both acute and chronic pain.

This isn't just my method; it's my personal path to healing.

    Mom of four, East Hampton

  • "I never knew I could feel this good!"

    “I never knew I could feel this good this consistently, especially after a recent tough pregnancy. Maddie was with me the whole way and is the reason I now can take any fitness class, and know how to modify the movement.”

    Mother of three, Southampton, NY

  • " Her hands are all-knowing and magical.”

    “Maddie’s hands are like the metal detectors on the beach. They know to go to the exact points of pain on my body as if they were beeping- her hands are all-knowing and magical.”

    Mother of three, Manhattan

  • She’s the most positive and kind human I've ever met

    “I started working with Maddie after the birth of my second child 5 years ago. She’s amazing! She has an incredible knowledge of anatomy, understands the changes you’re adjusting to (physical, mental, spatial, time), and listens extraordinarily well. Also, she’s the most positive and kind human I've ever met.”

  • “All I can say is she is, Magical Maddie.”

    Former NYC Rockette

  • “She is one of those people that you just want to be surrounded by."

    “She is one of those people that you just want to be surrounded by. She understands the human body in a way that makes you understand. Since working with Maddie, my ten years of back pain is gone, I’m pain-free, and my abs are the strongest they’ve ever been.”

    Executive Coach, Los Angeles

  • "Seeing Maddie twice a week until my c-section was the highlight of my pregnancy.”

    “I started with Maddie at 24 weeks with twins and my only regret is not meeting her sooner. Seeing Maddie twice a week until my c-section was the highlight of my pregnancy.”

    Fashion Designer, First Time Mom

  • "She is wise beyond her years."

    “We only send our patients to Maddie for manual therapy. She is wise beyond her years. “
