Tony is a licensed massage therapist in CT and NY, Reiki Master, and lymphatic drainage practitioner based in the New Haven area. His work blends skilled bodywork with a deeply intuitive, heart-centered approach that supports the whole person—not just their muscles. 

Tony offers integrative massage sessions that draw from multiple styles—including Swedish, deep tissue, myofascial release, therapeutic/medical, sports, and relaxation techniques. Rather than booking separate modalities, each session is customized based on your intake, style requests, your goals, and what your body needs that day.

Tony also offers Thai massage. Thai Massage is an ancient healing art that blends assisted stretching, rhythmic pressure, and mindful movement to restore flow throughout the body. Using hands, elbows, knees, and feet, the practitioner works along energy lines to release tension, improve mobility, and cultivate deep relaxation. This floor-based style feels like a blend of massage and yoga — a powerful way to recalibrate the nervous system and leave you feeling lighter, balanced, and renewed.This service needs to be specifically scheduled for to ensure the space is available. 

Tony also offers Lymphatic Drainage Massage. A gentle, rhythmic technique that supports the body’s natural lymph flow to reduce swelling, encourage detoxification, and promote deep relaxation. Ideal for immune support, post-surgical recovery, and easing fluid retention while calming the nervous system.

Practicing Reiki since 2012, Tony brings a grounded, energetic sensitivity to every session. Whether offering sports massage, myofascial release, deep tissue, or osteopathic-inspired techniques, he holds space for the emotional and energetic layers that often accompany physical tension. His approach is attentive and compassionate, meeting each client where they are so their body can soften and receive. Tony’s style is nurturing, intuitive, and deeply respectful of each client’s inner wisdom— beautifully aligned with Hawthorn Holistic Health’s whole-person philosophy.

A lifelong musician, Tony has a special affinity for working with fellow creatives. He understands firsthand the unique physical demands of performance and the importance of maintaining balance, mobility, and presence in the body.
