The use of Just one massage technique might not be the solution for optimal results during a massage session. Thus, Rothrock uses integrative massage therapy. That is, it incorporates multiple massage techniques into each session to treat each client's individual needs and problem areas. By using a blend of techniques from these massage styles, optimal results can be achieved to produce the most relaxing and therapeutic and massage.
Swedish Massage is the best known style of massage. It often comes to mind when massage is considered and is the basis of other massage styles including deep tissue, sports and aromatherapy massage. This style of massage involves gentle soothing strokes, kneading, deep circular movement and passive joint movements over the whole body that originated from a system of movements that Johan Georg Mezger (1838-1909) developed.
Overuse, stress or injury can cause specific areas of muscle and muscle groups to contract and form small, tender, fibrous nodules, also known as knots. Trigger Point Therapy consists of cycles of applying and releasing isolated pressure relieve pain and help gain mobility in these areas. Clients can notice a significant decrease in pain after one session.
Myofascial Release (MFR) Therapy (also known as Connective Tissue Therapy) is one of the most effective methods to treat chronic pain. Often, this pain is caused by a chronic condition called Myofascial Pain Syndrome. When under trauma, the myofascial tissue can thicken and become rigid resulting in pain, muscle tension, muscle immobility and corresponding diminished blood flow.

I have suffered from long-term COVID, which has led to a lot of pain in my shoulders and neck. I first went to Alan a few months ago in hopes to ease some of the pain, and I have gone back regularly because he has been able to find the problem areas, and has given me targeted exercises that will help lessen the pain. I also appreciate how thorough he is; I haven’t had any other masseuse keep extensive notes the way Alan does. I highly recommend visiting Rothrock Massage!

Rothrock Massage provides a safe, professional environment coupled with a friendly atmosphere. Alan Klein adjusts your massage to your changing needs each visit while moving you toward your ultimate goal. If you are interested, Mr. Klein will educate you on body mechanics as he explains how he is proceding with the session. He also suggests "homework" exercises to move you toward your goal.

Allan is a very skilled massage therapist. I always feel more relaxed and more pain free when I leave. In addition, the atmosphere in his studio is calm and welcoming. Allen always listens to my complaints and adjusts his technique to address my concerns. He takes notes and makes suggestions for work I can do in between sessions. I highly recommend him !

Alan at Rothrock Massage provides more than just a therapeutic massage. He provides a custom plan tailored to each persons’ individual needs. I’ve been to Rothrock twice now with excellent results from both visits. I’ve experienced significant improvement in my range of motion and my lower back pain is gone. I highly recommend him for anyone having difficulty keeping up with “Father Time” or anyone looking for a quality-of-life improvement. Thanks Alan!

I am from Germany and have had many massages in Europe...this by far is the Best Massage I have ever had. His technique and ability to find those spots that need attention are superior. I was more relaxed with this massage than any I'd previously had. Alan is very knowledgeable, kind, attentive and intuitive. I will definitely come back to see Alan when i return to PA.

Alan is exceptional! He intently listens to what you have going on and expertly addresses it in a manner that's comfortable to you. He is able to find areas of concern, work to correct them and provide recommendations for one to work on at home, be that stretching, tools, etc. Alan is very respectful of your comfort level, privacy and satisfaction. Going to Rothrock Massage is well worth your time and money.

Rothrock Massage has a new comfortable and relaxing office. Alan Klein is a great massage therapist who is very competent and knowledgeable. He is easy to talk to and is mindful of his clients' comfort and well-being. After only my first couple visits, Alan was obviously determined to remember my trouble spots as well as pressure preferences, previous techniques used and more.
