ABOUT INTUITIVE BODYWORK & ALAN JORDAN
Alan Jordan, Owner
A Passion For Healing Through Touch
Alan Jordan has been a dedicated massage therapist and educator since 1987, deeply committed to the transformative power of touch. He founded and served as Executive Director of the Tennessee Institute of Healing Arts, a nationally accredited massage and neuromuscular therapy school in Chattanooga, TN, for 15 years. In addition to leading the school, Alan maintained a thriving private massage therapy practice within the school's Integrative Health Clinic. During this time, he actively contributed to the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA) by holding leadership roles as President, Education Chair, and Treasurer for the Tennessee Chapter.
From 2003 to 2010, Alan expanded his reach as Campus Director and Instructor for massage therapy schools in Florida and New Jersey, ultimately becoming National Director of Education for the Cortiva Institute network of schools in Hoboken, NJ. His dedication to education led him to design and contribute to curriculum development for fifteen massage therapy schools across the United States.
Alan's passion for therapeutic touch extends beyond his practice. He is a Certified Neuromuscular Therapist and a Level 1 Neuromuscular Therapy Instructor through the International Academy of Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT) in St. Petersburg, FL. He holds a BA in Holistic Studies from Vermont College of Norwich University, where his culminating research focused on the connection between early childhood touch deprivation and violent behavior in later life.
In 2008, Alan established Intuitive Bodywork Massage Therapy in Edgewater, New Jersey, and later relocated to Downtown New Cumberland, PA, in 2010. His practice is rooted in the belief that safe, nurturing touch is fundamental to optimal physical, mental, and emotional well-being. He states, "I believe that safe, nurturing touch is essential to achieving optimal health, mental and emotional well-being, and performing to our full quality of life potential." This belief underscores his commitment to providing his clients with comfort, reassurance, and a profound sense of healing.
Alan's extensive education and experience have led him to specialize in pain management, mind-body healing, and women's health. His expertise in these areas is a testament to his dedication to providing comprehensive care and fostering a sense of confidence in his clients.

Building & Location
A Haven For Healing
The Deuce Gibb Salon/ Intuitive Bodywork Massage Therapy building has been a haven for healing since 1869. It was originally the residence and medical office of Doctor Jacob Warren Roop, then President of the Dauphin County Medical Society.
To this day, you can sense a positive nurturing presence at 337 Bridge Street.
Convenient Location
Intuitive Bodywork Massage Therapy is located on the second floor of the Deuce Gibb Salon building at the junction of Bridge and 4th Streets in New Cumberland, PA. We're just across Bridge Street from the bright and colorful New Cumberland Neato Burrito. We're in the same block, on the same side of Bridge Street, as the West Shore Theater and PNC Bank. We're also right next door to Creative Spark Arts.
Finding a parking spot is easy - There are plenty of parking spots on Bridge or 4th Streets and in the PNC Bank lot right across the street.
A Special Place
Located in the middle of downtown New Cumberland, PA this vintage, secure, and encouraging setting is designed to help you soothe and heal your body, as well as re-establish equilibrium. The 154-year-old Deuce Gibb Salon building is one of the oldest structures in the city, and its original hardwood floors and dim lights create an inviting and warm ambiance.
As soon as you enter the doors of Intuitive Bodywork, you'll sense the peace, love, and healing energy that exists in this space. Soft music plays in the background, and the environment is cozy, allowing you to feel nurtured and relaxed.
At Intuitive Bodywork Massage Therapy, I am pleased to offer my assistance in bringing balance and well-being to your body, mind, and soul. I am honored to welcome you to this beautiful and safe place, where you will find physical, emotional, and spiritual wellness.
With Care,
Alan Jordan
