Massage & Bodywork have become a preventative solution to modern aliments that our bodies experience due to stress, injury, overuse and medical conditions. Massage & bodywork promote health & wellness. Just like our cars need maintenance, so do our bodies. The natural healing techniques that I use work with your body's ability to heal itself.
Healing therapies like Massage & Bodywork have been used for centuries. These systems of natural healing are vital practices in many cultures. They assist the body to strengthen your immune system, tone, detoxify, soothe, relax, rejuvenate and promote health and wellness.

Are your shoulders killing you from pouring from heavy decanters? Does your wrist ache from too many turns of the corkscrew? Do your legs feel like lead weights because of too many trips to the wine cellar? Cynthia Lombardi will heal your body so working a double shift is as smooth as 1956 Loubere Armagnac!
Dear Cynthia,
I wanted to send you a thank you note to show my appreciation for all of the help you have given me on my leg over the past month.
Your deep tissue massage and scraping skills helped open the blood flow to the tight and knotted muscles in my hamstrings, calf, and Achilles’ tendon. You helped to speed up my recovery time, which reduced the intense pain and significantly increased my mobility! I am finally able to resume walking pain free!!
I have been happy to recommend you to my family and friends. You always go the extra mile for all of your clients to assist them with whatever ails them.

Cynthia is an extremely knowledgeable, qualified and dedicated LMT. I have been going to her since I was pregnant, and have continued to see her for the last five years. I have truly appreciated and have benefited from her targeted holistic approach. She's the best at what she does, and her sessions will leave you feeling like the best version of yourself.

Cynthia Lombardi is my go-to healer for body aches . A massage from Cynthia is always therapeutic AND relaxing . I feel as though I am restored to a state of well-being every time I leave her office . She seems to "see' what is troubling me and to be able to smooth my knotted muscles . I recommend Cynthia without reservation.
"I highly recommend Cynthia Lombardi. She is an expert massage therapist. You don't just get a "feel good" massage, you get a therapeutic massage, geared to your own body's needs. She is well-versed in body mechanics and connections, allowing her to really affect change in your body."
Lisl Zach ~ Associate Teaching Professor at Drexel University
Cynthia Lombardi is wonderful! When I leave her office, I feel ready to face anything. She has a deep understanding of how to release stress and can always find just the place that needs the most work. I've been seeing her for seven years, and I can't imagine going without my regular visits. Highly recommended!

Vera Pizzarelli ~ Head of Props
My name is Vera Pizzarelli and I have been a client of Cynthia Lombardi’s for the past 19 years whenever I am in the city of Philadelphia for work. From the beginning, I found Cynthia Lombardi to be a professional, caring, friendly and an extremely knowledgeable practitioner.
I have seen Cynthia for pinched nerves, pulled muscles and generally all round muscle fatigue.
She is by far the best massage therapist that I have ever had!
Recently, I was at my wits end suffering from severe hot flashes every fifteen minutes. They were so bad that I could not sleep. I was beside myself trying to figure out how I was going to do my job without proper rest and I was exhausted. It was then that Cynthia suggested that I have a lymph drainage therapy session.
One day after the lymph drainage therapy, my hot flashes diminished. Two days after the lymph drainage therapy they were all but gone and I was sleeping! I have had two more since then and still two months later, no hot flashes and I am sleeping soundly through the night.
The lymph drainage therapy was a miracle and so is Cynthia Lombardi! I cannot recommend her enough!
Thank you Cynthia!
With warmest regards
Vera Pizzarelli
