Alan’s long-time interest in natural forms of healing and helping others led him to massage therapy in 2004. He now uses a variety of techniques such as Swedish, Myofascial Release, and Trigger Point Therapy to treat a wide range of conditions ranging from chronic pain, headaches, and postural dysfuction to stress-related disorders. Each client is given a unique treatment and home-care plan that is specifically tailored to their presenting condition and current needs.
