I've been a fan of massage therapy for many years; however, I haven't had a massage that compared to the massaged provided by my therapist in the late '90s until I received a massage from Alison Robinette in Dec. 2017. Even days later, I can feel the effects of the deep massage WITHOUT feeling like I am bruised. She really knows what she is doing to offer therapeutic effects and not just relaxation techniques. I highly recommend anyone contact her who works on computers for a living because she can work the knots out of shoulder and neck pain from intensive desk work.
