What kind of massage?
Almost any type of massage will be helpful. (As long as it is done by a professional)
Honestly, I don't think there is a big difference between "types" of massage.
I mean, we are just talking about different ways to rub a muscle.
That said, as a man, you want an aggressive massage. Something that is deep and strong like a deep tissue massage.
Not just a "back rub" that a girl would get. You want the type of massage that NFL running backs gets on Monday mornings.

I want to know how to pick a masseuse that knows what they're doing
I'm sure you can read reviews for masseuses in NYC.
I just Googled "sports massage new york city".
Here what came up:
https://www.google.com/search?q=sports+m...channel=sb
I would contact all of these places and tell them your exact needs and wants.
Ask them exactly what you asked us. Go into their offices and talk to them, talk to the other people in there.
Ask for recommendations. Talk to other clients and get there perspective.
Just like choosing a doctor, lawyer, accountant, contractor, etc. Talk to a few a get a sense for who you are comfortable with.
Try a few different people until you find someone who you are happy with.

how it can help my body.
It relaxes muscles and removes lactic acid from the muscles. It removes stress and tension from the body. It aids in the rehab of muscles and allows for faster recovery.
It has many of the same benefits as stretching or yoga.
Google "sports massage new york city" and go talk to a few professionals about this.
