Testimonials

“From the very first time I received a massage from Allan I realized how committed he was to his art. Having taught massage and other integrative therapies for nearly two decades, I am especially attuned to the nuances of treatment delivery. Allan obviously took his profession seriously and is dedicated to its effective and caring delivery. In addition, he is a master of deep tissue therapy…”

Welcome to River Massage

Named for my love of flowing waters and the location of my homePhoto of Allan and business, which is but a stones throw from the Poudre River. My massage takes place in what was formally the dining room of my cozy, renovated 1917 home.

I have been practicing massage therapy since my graduation from Healing Arts Institute of Fort Collins, CO in the fall of 2009. It is quite gratifying and rewarding to be of service to others and know that my practiced and skillful touch can return to my clients a greater quality of life.

Through meditative focus and thousands of hours of experience, I bring an insightful responsiveness to the muscles of the body and their adhesion’s, trigger points, tensions and inter-connectedness. Providing a consistency and depth of pressure that has rarely been experienced by my clients from the hands of other therapists. I meet each unique client at a depth of pressure that is manageable to them and patiently, slowly and artfully alleviate tension and its associated pain and restore balance to muscles, leaving clients bodies properly aligned, often feeling taller and very relaxed.

When I am not massaging, my other passions are community service, cycling, yoga, hiking, backpacking, fly fishing and spending time with my three wonderful grown children.
