“Allison Baja has been my massage therapist for several years, and she is amazing! Allison has mastered her craft, and is both knowledgable and strong, and there are not many that can compete with her on the front range. She has been great with scheduling, and has proven to be flexible about rescheduling when needed. I have been really happy with my massage sessions and look forward to every one! Allison is amazing! ”

“I've had numerous massages from Allison Baja over the past decade and although I've seen other physical therapists thoughout that time (usually because of 'deals' & 'discounts'), I always walk out of of those sessions knowing that that massage wasn't as good as what Allison would have provided. Every visit to her is worth every penny and more. Plus, I feel better supporting such an amazing women who truly puts her heart into everything she does. ”

“Strong and accurate knot and pain relief!
I've never had a better massage than from Allison. While I know she can be gentle if necessary, no one gets in there like Allison does. She has an entire repertoire of techniques that I seldom experience from other therapists. The hot granite tools dig into your neck and shoulders and provide instant relief. She stretches out muscles that you couldn't get to on your own. From the heating pad on the table to the comfortable sheets and the excellent music, the whole experience is perfect. I highly recommend Allison! ”

“I have been seeing Allison for about three years, typically every two weeks for an hour and a half therapy session. I regularly experience cramping in my hamstrings and calves from disintegrating lower disc(s) creating pressure on my sciatic nerve and causing extreme tightness in my left piriformis muscle. This has reference issues down the leg and to the outside top of my foot and results in pulsing, stabbing pain. After addressing the back issues, Allison always finds other trouble spots but mainly concentrates on the nest of knots in my neck and shoulder blades (from staring at a computer screen daily).

I have nothing but positive superlatives about Allison and her work. I have tried at least a dozen other therapists, mostly in the chiropractor’s office, but have settled on Allison because she is the very BEST! ”
