Leslie Buhrmaster, MA, LMT
A graduate of Syracuse University and the Center for Natural Wellness in Albany, I am a New York State Licensed Massage Therapist with additional background in education, nutrition, weight management and wellness. I specialize in Swedish Massage, Deep Tissue, Myofascial Release and Sports Massage.
My interest in massage developed after a persistent illness, and two very different injuries which were greatly helped by massage. I view massage as both a valuable tool to promote healing, and as a wise investment in health maintenance. Beyond this, I see massage as an important "rite" of self care, helping us to stay grounded and in touch with our bodies and selves in a world of stress and fragmentation. I look forward to meeting you and working with you to meet your overall health and wellness goals.

One of my favorite pastimes is lifting weights. It’s fun and healthy, but it can leave me very sore. That’s where Leslie comes in! I’ve been doing a one hour massages with her, and afterward I like to work out because my muscles are already loosened up. This has been giving me great results.
Profoundly Relaxing
Personal, professional and profoundly relaxing. Leslie was amazing, listened and made extra time for me at my appointment. The location is convenient, clean and relaxing. Everyone was very welcoming. I look forward to returning regularly.
I always look forward to my massage
I have been a longtime patient of Dr. Dave. The quality of care by Dr. Dave is outstanding and his whole office staff is accommodating and welcoming. One of the perks of being a patient at Dr. Dave’s office is that they offer massage therapy with Leslie Buhrmaster. I have been seeing Leslie for several years now and I always look forward to my massage. She is attentive and tailors the massage to exactly what you need. There are times I go to see Leslie for pure relaxation and times when I schedule a visit because I am experiencing discomfort. Either way, I always leave with less tension and am satisfied with my massage. Leslie also has a wealth of knowledge about different health topics and is a valuable resource in health maintenance. I highly recommend her services.
Now Pain Free
I went to Leslie to get relief from chronic neck and back pain that kept me up at night. Leslie provides a peaceful, relaxing environment. She was receptive to feedback which enabled her to target problem areas. As a result, I’m sleeping through the night pain free!
The best hour of the month!
I receive massage from Leslie monthly and I always look forward to it. She is accommodating and very pleasant and an excellent massage therapist. She addresses your specific needs and concerns and I always leave feeling refreshed and pain free!
I am grateful
Suffering from pain as a result of my overzealous exercise after a hip replacement, I landed in Leslie’s care. I said I was desperate. Leslie said I was courageous. This is how the healing began. My first priority was the sharp pain running from my hip to my knee. Leslie used myofascial release to calm my IT band. It took months, but it is nearly gone. We are now working on other aches relating to my hip. Leslie starts each appointment by asking what I would like to work on. She listens and adjusts her treatment based on my needs. I am grateful for Leslie’s professionalism, knowledge, and care.
Left Feeling Relaxed
I was very pleased with my massage session with Leslie. I went in with back and shoulder pain and I left very relaxed and feeling much better! Leslie made sure I was comfortable and I will be doing more massages with her.
Fantastic Experience with Leslie
Fantastic experience with Leslie, not only a wonderful massage as she is a very professional LMT, but had a great conversation during my session. Very warm and welcoming atmosphere, already scheduled my next appointment.
