My Approach to Massage
I use Biodynamic massage as a base for the work I do.
Biodynamic massage is a combination of deep Swedish, myofascial release and cranial therapy.
I incorporate warming up the tissue layers while being present with how the inner body is responding.
The work can fluctuate from light to deep and deep to light touch. there can be periods of sustained pressure and periods of large inclusive movement. The focus is to assist the client while their body guides in the healing process.
My role is to be attentive and supportive as the layers of muscles and inner tissues unwind to create a healthier and more spacious environment for the body to find its way towards health.

Myself
I am proud to have a long history as a massage therapist. Upon graduating East-West College of the Healing Arts in 1997 I accepted
a job in the admissions department helping new students through the enrollment process and teaching introductory classes. While there I continued to take additional classes and workshops to hone my skill.
In 2001 I left to work full time at one of Portland original Day spas.
My private practice began in 2005 and I have been practicing and evolving as a massage therapist ever since.
I am honored that I get to do the work I do.
Everyday is new experience.
"I’m so happy to have found Alison. She is highly skilled and her knowledge of anatomy really shows through her bodywork technique. I felt very comfortable and relaxed during our session and my body felt amazing after. I highly recommend her!"
"I always look forward to my monthly appointment with Alison. She really pays attention to each individual body and how it responds as she works. After three appointments I have experienced a noticeable change in my back, shoulders and legs. I feel very grateful to have found her!"
I accept Personal Injury protection, PIP, for healing post auto accident. I also accept a variety of health insurances.
