👟THE SCOOP

This was one of the weirdest yet most beneficial things I have ever done. @bodyrollstudio in NYC is redefining the recovery game and making it look oh, so sleek in the process. @bodyrollstudio has massage machines used to aid in full body lymphatic drainage. The machine has ribbed wooden rollers paired with infrared light that manipulate the lymph to really get things moving. Sessions here run about forty five minutes. You’re set up in a private room (or semi private if you want to book with a friend) with a TV. On the TV you’ll be guided through different positions to get into on the machine. You’ll spend three minutes on each body part. Some positions are a lot more awk than others (hello inner thighs) but it all feels soooo good. Lymphatic drainage massage can help reduce swelling and inflammation by promoting the proper flow of lymph fluid in the body. Additionally, it may boost the immune system and aid in detoxification by removing waste and toxins from the lymphatic system. (Aka it’s healing and slimming AF). I personally noticed a huge difference in my bloating about two days post session.

Now please sign my petition to get them to open up a studio in South Carolina lol.

👟THE VIBE

Neutral girlies, unite! There’s barely an ounce of color in here and it’s glorious lol. This place feels like a spa but also very homey. If you can, def book a joint appointment with a friend and set your own vibes. Some of the positions you’ll be in are just too comical that you’ll need a pal to laugh with. Make a day of it and head to @rosemarysnyc for brunch afterwards!
