Offering relaxing therapeutic massages in NW Portland
Rachel Gothard-Gollob LMT at Restorative Touch Massage offers relaxing therapeutic massages in NW Portland, focusing on personalized bodywork to enhance your well-being and rejuvenate your spirit.
You may have already experienced massage for relaxation, but what I offer goes beyond a typical spa experience to radically improve your health. I practice therapeutic massage, which provides focused work on your body’s soft tissues.
Each appointment with me is tailored to your specific needs and health concerns, taking into consideration how your body is feeling in that moment and long standing issues you've had. So the more info you provide, the better! I then use massage techniques like deep-tissue massage, myofascial release, trigger point work therapeutic cupping to work on a focus area of your body or incorporate them into full body session depending on what's needed that appointment.
About me
I attended the Bodymechanics School of Myotherapy and Massage in Tumwater, WA, where I graduated with distinction, achieving top honors in her class. As a massage therapist, I like to bring an integrated mind-body approach to healing, which begins with an understanding of the root causes of a client’s discomfort. With my holistic approach to healing, I bring a quality of awareness to her massage that can include suggesting subtle changes to a client’s lifestyle. These changes, in turn, can bring about a transformative result. At the end of each session, my relaxing and rejuvenating massage allows each client to enter into a new realm of health and wellness.
