He provided an excellent deep tissue massage, while still being gentle. I would highly recommend Alan to anyone in the area or in town visiting as a friendly, professional massage therapist!
I have been getting a monthly massage for over ten years and seeing Alan for the last three. He is the fourth massage therapist I've gone to during that period and, in my opinion, clearly the best. The other practitioners have either moved away or gone into other lines of work, and fortunately it looks like Alan will be here for a long time. I spend a lot of time working at a computer both at work and at home. My shoulders, back, and neck muscles get really strained and sore sometimes and I always feel better after one of his sessions. I've tried both the 60 and 90 minute treatments, and prefer the longer ones by far. He has other types of therapy available, as described on his website, but I haven't tried them. Alan is dependable and punctual. He rarely if ever has to re-schedule an appointment due to conflicts. Also important, I never feel rushed because Alan reserves plenty of time for our sessions. There's never a feeling that someone's out in the lobby waiting. His technique is very relaxing and effective - he knows just how much pressure to apply and will adjust his therapy as needed. The office environment is excellent and very quiet most of the time. Alan's personality is pleasant and friendly, and he maintains the highest of professional standards. As noted in a previous report those warm, scented towels at the end of the session are so relaxing. I have referred several friends to Alan and they all thought the experience met or exceeded their expectations.
