Gregory
Owner and founder of Mpower Bodywork. Gregory is a graduate of the Swedish Institute, 1989. In the 1990’s he created massage programs for Sports Training Institute, New York Football Giants, Crunch Fitness, New York Sports Club, Manhattan Athletic Club, Printing House Fitness. His personal clients included Arther Ashe, Katherine Hepburn, Ed Koch, Lawerence Taylor, Michael Strahan, Carole King, Edgar Bronfman Sr., Danny Meyer…to name a few.
He advanced his knowledge of Deep Tissue work in 2002, by studying with Dyal Singh Khalsa, in Yogic Neuromuscular Therapy which greatly influence Mr. Serdahl’s teaching and understanding of “contact” with connective tissue and energy. He since (2001) has studied and assisted with Franklyn Sills founder of Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy and has a preference these days for this modality.
His realization of years of practice is that the therapist is only a “midwife” for the bodies innate ability to heal itself and that the “health” at work in anyones system is far greater than any therapist’s overlay of exertion or technique.
Though Gregory is not on the electronic schedule he is available for appointments and are best requested at gregory@mpowerbodywork.com. He also hires all of the therapist at Mpower and can speak to any practitioners ability and quality of touch should you need a recommendation.

I am finally able to relax, feel grounded and let go after 6 months in NYC. My neck is still a bit painful but it’s much better than before the massage. Thank you!
If I could give 10 stars I would. Greg has magic hands and my massage was definitely one of the best I've ever had. I can't wait to come back.
Gregory knows exactly where to go to work on my worst pain issues. I am so grateful for his care.
Gregory took time to assess my needs and review my past injuries. He suggested a modality that I had never heard of before, but turned out to be just what I was looking for to address the tight areas in my body. I will definitely be back! Thank you!
Gregory was terrific. He took time to find points of my discomfort. Carefully, he worked out some of the kinks. Interestingly, he also found out parts of my being (artistic) that I have been neglecting. All in all, working with him was a fine experience.
I had my first yogic neuromuscular session with Gregory and I went in with so much pain, stiffness, and tight muscles from years of stress and anxiety. I’m happy to report that a few days later, I’m feeling more relaxed, more flexible, and a greater sense of overall wellness. Gregory has the talent to figure out exactly what muscles need to be released and where to focus on - and he’ll coach you through it the entire time. There’s no one else I’d trust to get yogic neuromuscular massage from because Gregory is so warm, funny, trustworthy, and above all, a seriously talented massage practitioner. Gregory's Craniosacral Work is transformational too!
Intense, painful, and challenging to my ability to breathe are all descriptors that come to mind when I think of my yogic neuromuscular treatment. However, it was also deeply healing and exactly what my body needed, and Gregory was beyond kind and comforting through it all. I am so very grateful.
Greg listened very carefully to my issues with pain. He explained how he would try to address these problems. Throughout the session he was very attentive and always worked on the areas that bothered me the most. I was very satisfied with my first session.
I came accross Mpower bodywork and Gregory while searching for prenatal massage in my area on google . I am almost 8 months pregnant and had accumulated a lot of tensions and aches in my body because of pregnancy . Gregory made me feel immediately comfortable and his space is welcoming and warm , he made sure my body and growing belly had plenty of support at the right places and his heated massage table added to the relaxing aspect of the treatment . I can definitely tell Gregory has a lot of experience, he immediately located where I had tensions and blocages . his massages and manipulations treated all the aches I had due to pregnancy. I felt really safe , listened and taken care of and I left my treatment totally relaxed and reenergized at the same time , with improved circulation and less back pain . I am totally seeing him again in the futur , even post pregnancy !
Gregory is an old friend who I go to when I am in physical distress. He takes the time needed and has an arsenal of techniques to get to the root problem. He did not disappoint me.
