Nutrition education
Practical food strategy for shift work, commuting and eating out — built around your grocery budget and cooking time, not a rigid meal plan.
Kips Bay, Manhattan · Established 2016
Health habits that survive a New York schedule.
Larkfield Health Studio is a small, owner-run wellness education practice on Hoffman Avenue. We work one-to-one with adults on movement, nutrition, sleep and stress — using plain language, measurable goals and check-ins that actually fit into a working week.

Who we are
A studio built by someone who got tired of generic advice.
Raul Murray opened Larkfield in 2016 after ten years of coaching in commercial gyms where every client got the same printed plan. The studio was designed around the opposite idea: one coach, one client, one plan that gets rewritten as life changes.
We are an education and coaching practice, not a medical clinic. Our job is to translate what your physician already told you into a weekly routine you can hold onto — and to notice quickly when something is not working.
- Sessions are 50 minutes, never double-booked
- Written summary and next steps after every visit
- No supplements sold, no commission, no upsell scripts
- Transparent pricing published on our Programs page
What we do
Six services, one continuous plan
Most people start with one service and add another once the first becomes routine. Everything is delivered in the studio at 1797 Hoffman Avenue, or by secure video for clients who travel.
🏃
Movement coaching
Strength and mobility programming for people who sit ten hours a day. Progressions you can run in a small apartment or a crowded gym.
🌙
Sleep & recovery
A structured four-week routine to fix bedtime drift, late caffeine, screen habits and weekend catch-up sleep.
🧠
Stress & resilience
Breathing, workload boundaries and short reset routines you can use between meetings. Referral to licensed clinicians when appropriate.
📊
Progress tracking
Simple monthly measurements — energy, steps, strength, waist, sleep hours — charted so decisions are based on trend lines, not moods.
🏢
Workplace workshops
90-minute on-site sessions for New York teams: desk ergonomics, lunch strategy and realistic movement breaks.

Four steps, no long contract
Free intro call
Twenty minutes by phone. You describe the problem, we say honestly whether we are the right fit or whether you need a physician first.
Assessment visit
A 75-minute studio session: history, current routine, movement screen and baseline measurements.
Your written plan
Delivered within three business days. One page of priorities, one page of the weekly schedule, and the metric we will watch.
Check-ins
Weekly or fortnightly, in person or by video. Plans get adjusted whenever your life does — travel, injury, deadlines.
Our neighborhood
Ground floor on Hoffman Avenue
The studio sits in Kips Bay, a short walk from the 6 train at 28th Street and the M15 bus. It is a quiet two-room space with a strength area, a consultation room and a small kitchen we use for cooking demonstrations.
Street-level entry, no stairs, and an accessible restroom. Clients arriving by car can use the garage on East 28th Street; we validate the first hour on assessment visits.

Client feedback
What people say after ninety days
★★★★★
“I came in after a bad blood panel and a lot of vague internet advice. Raul asked what my week actually looks like before suggesting a single thing. Six months later the numbers moved and I did not have to quit my job to get there.”
★★★★★
“The sleep program was the unglamorous fix I kept avoiding. Four weeks of small changes and I stopped waking up at 3 a.m. The written summaries after each session are worth the fee on their own.”
★★★★☆
“Honest about what they do not do. They told me to see my doctor first, then built the routine around her instructions. That kind of restraint is rare.”
From the journal
Reading that is actually useful
We publish short, source-cited notes on the questions clients ask most. No miracle foods, no fear headlines.
- How much protein does a desk worker really need?
- Four weeks to a stable bedtime, one change at a time
- The case for the boring 8,000-step day
- Reading a basic lab panel without panicking
Common questions
Before you book
Is this medical treatment?
No. Larkfield Health Studio provides wellness education and coaching. We do not diagnose, treat or prescribe, and we do not replace your physician. Please read our Medical Disclaimer.
Do you take insurance?
We are a private-pay practice and do not bill insurance. We can issue an itemised receipt that some HSA and FSA administrators accept.
What does it cost?
Assessment visits are $145 and ongoing sessions start at $95. Full pricing is published on the Programs page — there are no hidden fees.
Can we work remotely?
Yes. Roughly a third of our clients meet by secure video. The assessment is easier in person, but not required.
Start with a conversation, not a contract.
Twenty minutes on the phone with Raul. If we are not the right fit, we will tell you who is.
