As a popular spa in Portland, it’s almost not surprising to see the high praises for Zama Massage Therapeutic Spa. Let’s talk about some of the best things you’ll find in this place if you ever want to try it out.

For starters, we do think it’s the kind of retreat you’d want to try with a loved one. This is because they have the largest variety of spa treatments for couples in Portland – the options are basically limitless in this spa.

Speaking of options, clients can expect a wide array of relaxation massages as well as deep tissue massages. By the way, they also have other spa treatments (facials and waxings to name a few) so we reckon it’s a nice place for a complete pampering.

One of the things that set them apart is that they use various pain relief techniques such as Magnetic Acupressure Cupping and CBD Signature Services. Plus, they’re literally the only spa in Oregon that offers Halotherapy Salt Caves.

As far as rate goes, their fees meet our standards as the prices fall within the average in Portland anyway. Additionally, clients can expect to see daily specials in case they want to save a couple of dollars per treatment.

While there are issues in customer service as well as high rates for certain services, we do think it’s an exciting option. Each massage session is also customized to enhance the experience, which is what matters most to us.

There are three major things that we love about Mudra Massage: the facilities they have, their team of therapists, and their services. We’ll walk you through some of the key things you can look into when going into this spa.

Let’s talk about the center first – it has seven massage rooms which are adequate enough for your typical spa. Other than that, there’s also a training studio and a spacious waiting room that’s big enough for clients to wait comfortably.

As far as services go, there’s no shortage of massage options in this spa. To give you an idea, they have a respectable range of relaxation massages and deep tissue massages (they also have this 2-hour signature massage that’s popular amongst patrons).

Now, one of their sought-after services is their Ashiatsu deep tissue therapy. The clients we’ve surveyed were very happy with this option, plus it’s performed by Ashiatsu DeepFeet Bar Therapy-certified therapists.

Another thing that we appreciate about them is that they’re able to accommodate same-day appointments. Other than their reasonable rates, this is something we love as it eliminates long waiting times.

However, the customer service might put you off (although it isn’t exactly so terrible that it ruins the experience). You can customize each massage session to meet your needs though, which is great if you want to target certain massage areas.

If you’re pretty serious about therapeutic massages, we think Elements Massage is a fantastic choice. Let’s dive into their major offerings so you can find out if they’re the right choice for you (or for someone you know!).

What makes this spa different from the rest is the fact that they offer memberships. We believe this is ideal for those in need of regular massages who don’t want the hassle of booking new sessions every single time.

The best advantage of these memberships is that it’s on a monthly basis (so it’s okay for those who don’t want something for the long run. Plus, the client gets to enjoy a different massage each month that’s personalized for them.

And, if you’re too busy to use the massage in a particular month, the massage simply rolls over to the next month. You can even share the membership to an additional person and enjoy the massage in over 250 locations.

While there’s a slight issue with communication and appointment-setting, we do think everything else is up to our standards. Even their past clients vouched for their top-quality services which certainly put us at ease.

Finally, they offer favorable rates as well as specials that various clients can enjoy. They even have a special for first-time customers, so it’s something you can take advantage of in case you want to try out a session here. 

Portland Massage Therapy has been relieving pain since 1999. They mostly deal with chronic or acute injuries (from motor vehicle accidents, work-related injuries, and sports injuries) through the therapeutic massages that they offer.

To start off, their LMTs are professional members and insured through the American Massage Therapy Association. This alone gives us peace of mind since this means that accurate therapeutic treatments are provided to their clients. 

Among these is their deep tissue massage, which we found as their most favored treatment. Customers found their technique (slow, deliberate, and precise pressure) as an effective one seeing that they don’t feel like being hurt at all, unlike other massage practices. 

Another recommendable service from them is their orthopedic massage therapy. Prior to the session, we found that orthopedic tests are done at first, which is obviously a plus point on our part for the overall quality of the massage. 

We’ve also heard of the positive reactions regarding their post-massage care. Most of the clients attested to the tips provided to them (besides the required tests & checkups), plus they always, if truly necessary, prescribed stretching exercises to enhance the healing process. 

On a poor note, clients find their first appointment tiresome due to the intake paperwork that takes 5 to 30 mins to complete before the start of the consultation. However, this is only the case for walk-in patients since they only operate under scheduled sessions.  

We understand how important the approach is when it comes to choosing the right therapeutic massage clinic. And with Precision Healing, where they offer extensive training in many modalities, this matter is met.

To begin with, they pay attention to the safety of their patients through regular sanitizing of all touchable surfaces after each appointment. This, we believe, is a relief for the clients who are conscious of their surroundings and safety.

In addition to therapeutic treatments, the center makes sure that its clients can relax. At the same time, therapists never forget to enforce good communication with them, which initially sets a good mood for the secession.

Medical massage is also on the table, specifically for motor vehicle accidents. Unfortunately, as of this writing, the practice doesn’t accept or bill any insurance under that case, and while this might be a drawback for us, the good thing is they are open to help for possible reimbursement. 

As for their rates, a 60-minute massage service (all types) costs $100 while a 90-minute one is accessible for $140. This pricing, in our opinion, is just slightly pricier compared to other clinics, but it’s still on the reasonable side.

Lastly, the decades of combined experience from their certified therapists also fall under the good things about them. We’ve also heard about their satisfied clients when it comes to post-massage care which only reflects the overall positive customer service they deliver.  

IMMERSE Modern Massage is a facility that provides its clients with a diverse array of deep massage treatments that help relieve bodily stress, tension, and pain to attain holistic wellness.

We like that their massage experiences have a wide array of features such as crystal-weighted blankets, deep healing hemp, hot towel aromatherapy, and sound-infused massage tables for a more immersive take on massage.

Aside from this, they also employ a convenient and hassle-free booking system and convenient customer support approaches for an overall smooth experience in availing their intended service.

Note though that they implement strict 24-hour cancellation policies which same-day cancellations incur a full service charge if done.

Overall, with their excellent team of professionals in the field, smooth and exemplary massage treatments, and convenient booking services, we highly recommend interested clients to check them out.
