At Rest and Ritual we affirm that massage therapy IS basic healthcare
In the heart of Portland, our little space offers a sanctuary for those seeking to be seen, heard, and remembered. We offer each of our amazing clients a truly individualized healing experience. To us, massage therapy isn't just about relaxation nor is it viewed as a luxury. While we do treat each session as a luxurious break from the outside world and always prioritize the relaxing effects of a nurtured nervous system, we also embrace this modality as the most basic form of healthcare. We all have bodies that work hard and we all need safe spaces to be held and cared for with skillful heart-centered hands.
Our approach to bodywork is centered around making connections with our clients and getting to know them and their needs before they ever get on the table. We want you to feel comfortable and confident in the work you receive. We always center a trauma-informed approach, and welcome all body shapes, sizes, and abilities.
To all our amazing clients: Thank you for trusting us to guide you on a therapeutic experience towards your highest healing. We are so grateful for you.
We use many modalities under the massage therapy and energy work umbrella. Our approach to each session is very individualized and based on the specific needs, goals, and preferences to each client. Our services are always Queer and Trans inclusive, body and disability inclusive, and trauma-informed.
