Allan is a very special and humble combination of amazing natural instincts. Allan has the ability to bring humor, seriousness, intelligence, and skills together for the benefit of all. My only challenge in drafting a testimonial for Allan is relaying to the reader the full scope of his vast talents, uplifting personality and complete professionalism.

Two years ago, I began experiencing shoulder pain. While the doctors were trying to determine the cause of my pain, they recommended massages, which I would receive a couple of times a week. Over the course of 6 months, I saw 5 different massage therapists. I then became aware of Allan Golabek and heard positive things about his massage practice. I went to see Allan and, after a few massages, I could not believe how much better I felt. I had shoulder surgery and continued to see Allan once a week, post-operatively. Two months ago, it was confirmed that I have a bulging/herniated disc in my lower back. Along with chiropractic treatment, I have continued my massage. Again, my weekly massages with Allan really help me, physically and mentally. Allan's easy-going manner, along with the calming and relaxing environment he creates, makes every massage a wonderful experience. I highly recommend Allan to anyone looking for a great massage therapist.

I have had massages all over the world but the best is right here in Bethel. Although Al has lost his sight, this is actually his genius. He "reads" your pressure points with his hands and uses a vast variety of techniques to get you back in balance. He has taken massage therapy training around the world and can customize the approach to your particular problems. Al also freely invests the necessary time to make sure you are rehabilitated completely. His interest and focus is on your satisfaction, not moving on to the next customer.
If you are accustomed to the "commercial" massages provided by national chains, one visit with Al will show you an entirely new world. I frequently give massage gift certificates to friends and associates and they all have the same opinion. If you want to be processed, go to a commercial spa. If you want to be completely relaxed and at peace, see the master—you will not be disappointed.

Allan is a fantastic massage therapist. I cannot speak highly enough of his skills and individualized compassion. I have traveled extensively and had dozens of massages from many sources and nothing compares to the attention and the thoroughness of Al's technique. He is constantly learning and searching for more ways to expand on his skills, and truly cares for all his clients' needs. He has a lovely demeanor and really wants to know his clients on a deeper level than most in his field.
I always leave Al's office feeling completely relaxed and he always takes special care of any particular spots that might need a little more attention. I have recommended many friends to Allan and they all are impressed and satisfied as well. He is quite simply the best!
