Job Titles:
- Licensed Massage Therapist
Allyson has been practicing massage therapy for over 25 years in both Clinical/Chiropractic and Spa settings. She brings a diverse and multi-disciplinary approach to her work, combining techniques & elements from various modalities including Neuromuscular, Swedish and Medi-cupping therapies. Allyson also offers amazing Body Scrubs in conjunction with a 60 or 90-minute massage for total relaxation and body care.
Using a firm touch to "melt" tissue rather than trying to force through excessive pressure, which she believes is counterproductive. Her calming temperament, integrative approach and passion for helping her clients allows her to perform anything from relaxation & stress reduction, focused clinical treatments for pain relief or a combination of several depending on what your body needs.
