Hey there, I'm Al and use they/he pronouns. I have been practicing massage for 10 years and am very dedicated to providing safe, affirming, therapeutic bodywork. I use an integrative and client-centered approach in my practice and am LGBTQIA+ affirming. Some of the modalities I perform are swedish, deep tissue, prenatal, myofascial, cupping, hot stones, intraoral (for tmj, headaches), reiki and customized techniques that support those with acute and chronic pain but also those looking for a more relaxing therapeutic massage. Whether this is your first time getting a massage or you know exactly what modalities and techniques work for you, I will meet you where you are at in your healing journey.

Al was the best I’ve had! Definitely going back to Al the next time I’m in Philly. Again highly recommend this spot!!!!

Al is friendly, professional, and highly skilled. They always start our appointments by checking in on how I'm feeling and asking how they can make me comfortable while addressing any specific concerns. Al is very attentive throughout the session, adjusting the massage pressure and table warmth to suit my preferences. I always leave feeling refreshed and my body rejuvenated!

Al was amazing and very professional. When I left my body was much more flexible and without pain. Thank you

Very attuned to my specific requests.

I came in wanting a deep tissue massage of a specific area where I was experiencing pain and discomfort. Al was very professional and listened to my concerns/issues before the massage. However, I would have hoped for more continuous dialogue throughout the massage with respect to pressure and whether the area/spot I was in for was being targeted by the massage. I left the massage feeling a bit disappointed with the lack of communication as I'm used to working with the therapist to give feedback on how I'm feeling during a particular movement, etc.
