I was visiting my husband's family in a neighboring town this summer when my neck completely locked up. Mihail went above and beyond to save the day. Not only did he stay late to fit me in, he expertly fixed the problem. His depth of knowledge regarding human anatomy is impressive, to say the least, and his technique is flawless. I've been getting massages for years in LA and no one has come close to his level of expertise. If I lived closer to Woburn, I would, without a doubt, have a standing appt. He's an absolute genius. read more

I have had two neck surgeries, C5-6 & C6-7, I have recurring pain as a result of the injuries that necessitated those surgeries. I have used private practice massage therapists to franchise massage clinics, Mihail Rosca has been by far and away the best massage therapist I have ever used. Mihail Rosca is strong enough to get into deep tissue massage, experienced enough to release those nagging Trigger Points, and smart enough to knead those smaller surface muscles, into smooth, relaxing comfort. His office is always clean, tidy and safe. His ability to Make appointments via text, is a convenience, I have not seen from other massage clinics. His massage "Sanctum" is private, and relaxingly lit. The massage table is comfortably padded and heated to my own preference. The background sounds are soothing and relaxing. When Mihail has completed his expertly administered craft, my only thought is, "when is your next available appointment next week." Rosca Therapeutic Massage: Highly Skilled. Highly experienced. Highly Recommended! (781) 308-0756 read more

Mihail Rosca, IMHO, is the best massage therapist I've ever had.  And I've tried a lot of "deep tissue" massage therapists. I also bought a session for my "massage fan" daughter in law.  She says the same.  He was trained in Russia and Moldova.  In Russia massage therapists work as part of a medical team.  He likes to work with whatever medical "experts" I may be seeing and likes to know their recommendations so he can work with that. I highly recommend him. read more

We had done a few massages at Elements in Burlington, but just didn't feel like we were getting the value for the 100-something price tag. After seeking out more massage options in our general area, we came across Mihail's practice. My husband and I booked back to back sessions, and we were so pleased. We have been going regularly -- about every 2-3 weeks or so -- for maintenance. Mihail is timely, friendly, and knowledgeable. The space is clean -- he always puts on fresh bedding and washes up thoroughly between appointments. As a huge germaphobe always on the lookout for service-people cutting corners on sanitary practices, I notice these things! A+ As a woman, I am completely comfortable with him and would recommend any woman looking for someone professional to definitely feel good about booking with him. It is fortunate that he is so close to where we live. Highly recommend. read more

I recently had to seek a certified massage therapist and Yelp pointed me to Rosca. All the 5 star reviews are correct. Mihail Rosca is the real deal and knows your pain and issues more than you do. His knowledge of the human body is deep and works with you to help reduce the pain and stress that is built up. I had 4 sessions with him and now am nearly pain free, and I have added him to my toolbox of health care professional to assist me when I am in need. Highly recommend Rosca Therapeutic Massage. read more

I decided to give this place a shot and I had an experience... I've had massages all my life with all different sorts of masseuse's and this is by far the best I have had in a long time. Mihail Rosca is Moldovian master of his arts, and he DEFINITELY know's what he's doing. He will take the time and talk to you before the massage to know where exactly you are having trouble at, and he will always ask for your feedback and tell you where he notice's stresses on your back. He is a definite legit masseuse. If you're looking for a very good and thorough massage he is your guy. Very professional and courteous with what you want and will always ask your feedback. He will massage you based on what you need and is not one of those other masseuse's that will try to rush you through the door. He runs his own business so you will always get a consistent masseuse and his business is definitely not one to pass up. By far the best masseuse I've met in the Boston area so far. Quick tip: The place has great parking on the backside. If you're coming from I-95 just make a left to the parking lot on the back. His shop is on the second floor facing the intersection right next to the middle stairs on the intersection side. read more

Highly recommended, I am so glad that I read your reviews and took a chance, this man really knows his stuff, very professional and always checking on client throughout the session. I am very impressed with his skills so I recommend Rosca Therapeutic Massage. Very easy to get to and plenty of parking. Thank you Mihail, Juan read more

There is a reason for all the 5* reviews! It's like winning the lottery! After many, many different massage experiences I found someone who really knows what he is doing. I've had problems with my shoulder for years and Mihail went right to work with trigger point therapy along with massage and stretching. I was not looking for a relaxing spa like massage, but therapy, and I found it. He really knows so much about anatomy and where to find the problem areas. He is also not afraid to touch and find those pesky spots in areas that other therapists will not even approach (like pecs in the chest area or underarm for example) this is always done after checking with me and making sure it's ok. I never felt uncomfortable. I had multiple sessions and I'm slowly feeling an improvement. He also did cupping, a therapy where he applies suction cups to the skin for a few minutes. It is not a comfortable feeling, but afterwards, it was so much better, I had a whole new range of motion! Don't be afraid to give it a try. As many others said, he also gave me homework, exercises and stretches to do by myself. I would highly recommend Rosca Therapeutic Massage and the cost is worth way more than all the doctors that just want to give me injections. Thank you! read more

This is by far the best massage on the planet! It's a hassle-free experience, service is prompt, the price is fair. In fact, you will pay far more for less than at Roses. The value for your money is simply unbeatable. read more

best massage i've ever gotten. highly recommended

I have been a faithful client of Rosca Massage for over two years. Trust me, it is a long time when it applies to such a sensitive structure as your body. My review might be the shortest but in brief if I could give 10 stars over five I would give Mihail Rosca all ten stars. He exceeds your expectations every single time. He knows and feels all of your troubled spots exactly where you need it to fix every single time. You don't even have to tell. He truly deserves to work for any of the best hospitals in Boston area to treat effectively post-trauma issues, sciatic nerve pain, neck, fibromyalgia just to name a few. Rosaca Massage is truly therapeutic and I would highly recommend it to everyone. read more

Believe the other five star reviews: Mihail Rosca is a master at his profession. So good that I'm compelled to write my first Yelp review. I am a middle-aged runner and cyclist with hamstring pain so bad it kept me off the road and the bike. I tried chiropractors and sports medicine MDs with no results. After only a few sessions with Mihail, I am pain-free. He figured out what the problem was and fixed it. If you are a runner/cyclist/triathlete then you need to have Mihail help you keep your body in good enough condition to take the stress of these sports. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Also, if you are female concerned about going to a male massage therapist, I feel perfectly comfortable having Mihail work on me. You are always under a drape except for the body part he is working on, and he is very professional and careful with your comfort level. read more

Mike changed my life. My legs used to hurt so much I couldn't do what I loved doing without severe pain -- cycling, running, and most importantly, skiing. I've been seeing Mike the last few months and I'm back in running shape, and I can't wait for the snow to fly. read more

I recently had a back injury at work and I had to make some changes in my routines. I had a few xrays done, orthopedic evaluation, and pt for about 2 months but a lot of what I got were inconclusive answers and mobility checks, surveys and questions, and paperwork for billing claims insurance adjustments with workmans comp. Mihail has been working with me on legs back and neck on a regular basis and I have been in very good health over the last few years while on the job. With this new injury Mihail treated specific areas with different tools and I have felt better after treatment and also a lot more hopeful about recovery and new employment. There are different seasons of life where it is good to double check the structure but health needs to be maintained which is why it is so important to have rosca massage and someone who can support establish a baseline and modify plans to get back to a new normal so I can choose the work that I care most about. read more

Very knowledgeable, no frills therapist. Not a spa type of massage, this is a place to go to assist with chronic body pain or to promote muscle wellness. I appreciate his skill and flexible schedule! read more

I have to completely agree with all the other reviews. They have said it perfectly. I originally bought this groupon for my boyfriend. He took too long in making an appointment so I decided to use it- and I am so glad I did! Rosca's Therapeutic Massage is not your every day- "lay down, rub, go home" where the massuese ultimately just wants you to enjoy yourself, relax and leave. Mihail Rosca talks to you before your massage to really pinpoint any issues you've had, and focus areas you would like. It was a very customized massage. I am also a new crossfitter, and training for an event. I found that certain issues with my muscles are prohibiting some of my capabilities. After the session Mihail showed me some work outs and stretches for certain muscles. He is very knowledgeable, and it a true massage therapist. He obviously prides himself in helping people and improving overall, long term health. I don't plan on going anywhere else for a massage. If I want a great job done and to really see a difference and improvement, I will be going to Mihail. Woburn is quite far for me, living in the south shore. But he is definitely worth the drive. read more

Amazing, passionate with helping people/clients, knowledgeable! Of the 10 years I've been getting deep tissue massage, Mihail's has been the best. Suffering from tension in my neck, shoulders, arm, wrist and right lower back, more now post kids. I walked out feeling brand new, light and pain-free. Mihail spends a lot of time getting deep to release tension areas I did not know I had. To top it all off, we talks about up keep, he demonstrates stretches to do at home, which are key for me to get through the day! Since moving to California in Feb, I have been searching for a therapist, none have come close, I am heartbroken. Highly recommend Mihail!!! Thank you, Santa read more

Great at what he does! Helped me when I had a sore lower back and had trouble walking. With stretch and strength moves, I felt better within an hour. He told me how to stretch the muscles at home and it has been helping. read more

Mihail is great! I enjoyed his Swedish. deep tissue and trigger point massage...even though when he performs on me, it's a bit painful/sore, but afterward I feel great...it also relieves stress for me...I bought a package of six.... Mihail is highly recommended... read more

I came to Mihail with a pinched nerve in my shoulder. After the first message, I knew I'd need to see this guy regularly & bought a massage pack (pay upfront for 5 messages, get 1 free). I had 3 messages so far and feel much better. He's not cheap but you pay for quality. After my massage, Mihail would spend some time teaching me some stretching exercises. Location: Easy to get to, plenty of parking. Facility: Upstairs, nice office space, shared practice with a chiropractor, clean restroom. read more

Mihail is an incredible masseuse with a great understanding of anatomy and ability to hone in on those often neglected/underestimated trigger points. Consistently the best massages of my life, irrespective of the ailment (or lack there of) at the time. This opinion is shared by my father who insists on a 90 minute session every time he comes to town (and motivated a couple visits)! read more

I was referred to Mihail Rosca after hearing how wonderful he was at getting to the source of my friend's back pain. She said that after one session she felt a remarkable difference as his technique combined different forms of massage that gave her tremendous relief. I had been having bilateral pain in my IT bands due to redundant physical activity and the tightness that resulted was very uncomfortable. I had been going for physical therapy mostly for dry needling for quite a long time without great results. I contemplated getting a cortisone shot on each hip but instead I made a 90 minute appointment with Mihail and you can capitalize the "t" in Therapeutic massage. He uses a combination of Shiatsu, pressure point massage, deep tissue massage and sports massage. He understands the body and looks to get at the root of the problem and to put your body in balance and out of pain. The first massage was quite painful as Mihail worked on pressure points and at the same time manipulated my legs and after many repetitions the pain subsided and he went on to the next pressure point. I truly believe that the idiom "no pain no gain" exemplifies his technique and it is well worth pushing through the pain to get the relief that he is able to achieve with his strong healing hands. I have now been to four sessions and feel remarkably better than I felt in a long time. He also gave me exercises that will enable me to continue to improve and I have every confidence under his guidance and care I will make a full recovery and be able to jog again, ride horses and feel good. Even though massage isn't covered by insurance though it should be since it can have far more therapeutic benefit than physical therapy it is worth the cost because in the end it will enable me to stay active and feel good and that is priceless. I count my blessings and Mihail Rosca is one of them. read more

I went to Rosca based on the Yelp reviews I've read here, and they've been all on point! Rosca has helped alleviate some lower back pain and arm/wrist pain from me constantly sitting and typing while at work. I would actually recommend to get a 90 minute massage, as I've quickly realized that 60 mins isn't enough time. If you want to get your body a much needed tune-up, this is the way to go! read more

I've struggled with myofascial pain in my shoulder and neck for a long time. I snowboard, play tennis and handball, lift weights and do circuit training. All these activities have led to a lot of muscle injury. Mihail is the first massage therapist I have met that is extremely experienced in trigger point therapy - he's extremely knowledgable in muscle anatomy. I have exhausted other options such as massaging the back with a lacrosse ball and using a theracane - these interventions were unsuccessful in minimizing muscle pain. Mihail is great at explaining what he is going to do. He even took the time after the massage session to teach me specific stretches that I should do at home. I'll definitely be coming back again. read more

I am a long-time client of Rosca Therapeutic Massage and consider it part of my essential wellness routine. Today, however, I discovered something new that I felt I had to recommend. I am day 11 into a stubborn cold, already been to the doctor, chest x-ray, no pneumonia but big time chest congestion that just won't break up. Plus nasal congestion. Almost rescheduled my massage (again). Towards the end of my massage, Mike offered me a strategy to help break up my chest congestio; rhymnic pounding on my back from neck to waist that felt absolutely great. I took the first full breath of air since the beginning of my cold! I had no idea his skills extended to treatment of the common cold. This guy is amazing. read more

This guy is legit. Don't wait to get injured to get deep tissue work done. I usually spend 1hr on the foam roller for deep tissue work. i also use a lacrosse ball to work at my upper back. The work that Mike does would take me 4 hours to accomplish on a foam roller, lacrosse ball and who knows what other equipment it may need. He is strong and will find every single pressure point and obliterate it. Im 27, weight lift, crossfit, run, play tennis and am a ER nurse. i looked into deep tissue massages because i want to stay injury free and would rather prevent than treat injury. If you're done with body rubs and want real therapy that would keep you healthy and keep you mobile, definitely book an appointment. read more

90 Mins of 'trigger points' heaven! By far one of the best in terms of great knowledge, understanding and ability in all the tight areas of my body. I get massages as often as my body needs it since I am a body worker myself. Not just the right pressure but most importantly knows what to do with the 'in need' areas. To have most of my tightness/ aches relieved right there has never happened before to me. I was a tought client with much to do for Mihail and could easily stayed for a 2 hours massage. My search for a perfect massage therapist for me is complete. Thank you Mihail. Very comfortable, very professional and very good! read more

I suffer from pain in my shoulder and neck. I found Mihail when I was searching for a massage therapist who could make an impact on my pain and who knew how to apply the right amount of pressure to my trigger points. I'm pleased to say that he is extremely good at what he does and for the first time, my pain levels have improved significantly. I would highly recommend his services! read more

Mihail relieved all of the stress and tension in my neck, shoulders, and back without causing me to wake up feeling achey the following day like I have with other deep tissue massages. Probably the best, most thorough and relaxing massage I've ever had. I highly recommend! read more

Mihail is a gem! As a physician, I care about therapeutic results of massage for chronic pain and injury recovery. Mihail knows what he's doing and the results are amazing! His training and experience are unparalleled and it shows in his work. He is skilled in a wide range of massage modalities (reiki, swedish, relaxation, deep tissue, etc.) and his versatility and knowledge of the body allows him to tailor his massage to the client and their needs. You will not be disappointed if you want lasting results!!! I have personal experience with enormous relief from bilateral shoulder and neck injuries and his massage has been instrumental in my recovery. He took a great deal of time to discuss my issues, follow up at every visit to assess the effectiveness of the previous treatment, and showed me numerous stretches and other exercises to do to enhance the results after massage. He's focused on producing results so you can be pain-free and graduate from treatments. Just a heads up: while Mihail can do anything a massage therapist at a relaxing spa can do, he is no-nonsense in his approach without the fluff. To me it is the real deal and would refer any patient of mine to him for relief of chronic pain and recovery from injury. Highly, highly recommended!!! read more

I received a massage at Rosca Therapeutic Massage as a celebration gift from my wife. We recently moved to the area and she read the previous reviews on Yelp and decided to try his introductory offer. I was looking forward to a relaxing massage that would temporarily relieve my persistent shoulder pain. I have had many massages elsewhere, and although I enjoy them, the relief was only temporary. The therapeutic massage from Mihail Rosca's changed my perception of what a massage can be and his coaching kick-started the process toward long-term healing. After realizing the relief after the first session and seeing the benefits of following his recommendations for stretching, I scheduled additional sessions with Mihail. He targets different areas during each session and shares different activities/stretches that I can engage in between sessions to build strength and flexibility. Mihail is very professional, has a wealth of knowledge, truly cares about his client's well-being, and is genuinely kind person. I would strongly recommend Mihail for individuals seeking a relaxing massage in a professional/medical environment as well as those suffering from chronic pain. read more

I have been working with Mihail for about two years now and I don't have enough good things to say about this guy. Passionate about helping people, knowledgable and accommodating, I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for long term care. Great, great, great!! read more

Mihail knows what he is talking about. I went to him for the groupon promotion and have been a regular client after that first session. He really know how to give your body what it needs. He is also very good at giving you tips and exercise to eliminate any pain that you may have in your muscles due to bad postures or daily life activity. You want to go more than once with him, as he really invest in each of his clients and get to know their bodies and how to treat them properly. If you are a competitive sports practitioner he is the person to go to!!!! read more

I'm really glad I found Rosca Therapeutic Massage. I've had neck and shoulder issues for a while which have stopped me from doing all of the physical activities that I want to do and Mihail has been unbelievable with what he has done for me. It is by far the best and most beneficial massage I've ever gotten plus the stretches and knowledge Mihail passes along to you afterwards allows you to keep working toward your goal of feeling better even when you don't come in for a session. If you have any trouble spots or if you just need to loosen tight muscles this is the place to go! read more

My daughter is a gymnast at the national training center in Burlington, MA. She has some trouble with flexibility in her legs, back and shoulders. Since she has been going to Rosca on a weekly basis for sports massage, her flexibility has improved significantly in such a short time (3 weeks). He allows parents to go into the room and he always asks permission if he could work on certain areas of her body. He constantly asks my daughter throughout the session if the pressure is ok. He takes massage therapy to another level in the sense that he provides exercises and stretches to do at home during the week before going to the next session. He stresses the importance of doing the homework in order for the massage to be effective. I would highly recommend any parent who has a gymnast who needs to improve in flexibility to see Rosca! read more

I have gone to Mihail several times and he is tremendous for therapeutic massages. If you are looking for a relaxing, "fall into a slumber" massage, you should look elsewhere, however, if you have a particular ailment or are someone who focuses on injury prevention or peak performance of your body, he is fabulous. He is knowledgable about the body and muscle structure and manages his business well (runs on-time, works with you to find a convenient time, etc.). I highly recommend him. read more

Highly recommend Mihail! He does a great job. Always friendly and tries to be as flexible as possible to fit the time I can visit him. He really helped me with my back problems and after few sessions I felt a long waiting relief and started to be back in good shape, more active and enjoying my daily activities. I did not have to explain much about my back, he understood me quick even he is not a native English speaker. The location is good, big parking lot, easy access. read more

Very good! I had a problem for a long time and now it is taken care of it, finally. Big big thank you! Recommend highly!

This is very good therapeutic massage and he is extremely knowledgeable. I visited twice during my week here and wish I lived closer to be able to continue the relief that was started. I was also shown a lot of stretches and at home work which is appreciated. Highly recommend. read more

The man is a healer, he knows his stuff, and he will fix you up. He's friendly, accommodating (fit me in the same day when I got injured), and very knowledgeable (problems that had been plaguing me for years he was able to isolate and explain). No reservations, great therapist ! read more
