Human Bodyworks was founded by Carl Carvalho, NYS Licensed Massage Therapist, Nationally Certified in Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork.

Since 1993, while struggling with personal obstacles, Carl discovered the beneficial healing qualities of massage, bodywork and herbal medicine. A few years later, when on vacation in the Yucatan, he and his wife became friends with Daniel Pool Pech, a local Maya shaman and massage therapist. Inspired by Daniel, Carl studied at the Ohashi Institute for his first formal training in bodywork, Shiatsu and Traditional Chinese Medicine. He then went on to graduate top of his class at the Swedish Institute, the oldest and one of the most prestigious massage schools in the country. Carl is continuing his training with The Upledger Institute.

Having overcome his own obstacles with alternative medicine, Carl is dedicated to creating bodywork sessions customized for you.

Carl also owns Duplications Unlimited, a design, printing and copying company, in midtown New York City, as well as BodyArtJewels.com with his wife Adina Ruskin.
