I got a massage with Tessa and she was amazing! I had serious pain in my shoulder show up suddenly that she was able to relieve me of. Super worth going in and wish I could make weekly appointments! Highly recommended. I went into the old location just as they were moving and it was very nice so I imagine the new spot will be even better.

I have seen Harmony every month for for nearly 18 months, and I love how I feel after every session. First, what a great space for a massage: smells calming, warm, soothing music, plenty of space to not make me feel claustrophobic. Second are the choices I have for duration and types of massage and amenities. Go for the 90 minute therapeutic and get some CBD oil and hot stones. Third is how much I love Harmony- she is a wonderful human being, a turkey skilled massage therapist and a sweet person. She knows how to fix what's aching. Can't recommend this place more!

Rebecca is amazing! I have been seeing her monthly for 8 months and have experienced relief from some chronic pain issues thanks to her expertise and skill. Whether you need regular care or just stopping in for an occasional massage, you should go see Rebecca! Bonus, they take some insurance plans and the studio spaces are lovely. Try the CBD oil, it adds to the relaxing experience!

Aradia is a miracle worker. Professional, pleasant, and the best Masseuse I have ever been to. She always knows where my body needs help and I can feel the benefits for a long while afterwards. She well trained and I can tell she loves what she does. The space is beautifully decorated, clean and very comfortable. I recommend Aradia to everyone I know and have always heard great responses.

I’ve never gotten a massage before but I managed to get a same day appointment and my body was just feeling really sore all over and I left feeling like a whole new person. She listened to what my main concerns were and took care of it and some! Very relaxing environment, I am definitely coming back.

Travis has helped me work through some chronic neck and shoulder pain caused by too much computer time at work. He is extremely knowledgeable about these types of repetitive-use issues. He has taught me so much about how to prevent it from happening. I wouldn't go anywhere else. And, he plays great music!

I recently saw Travis for a massage. I was looking for some support because my neck and shoulders were really tight and painful. He was really skilled, gentle yet effective and found great relief. I also really appreciated some exercise recommendations he gave for me to practice at home to both build muscle and increase flexibility to help my body from getting too tight again. Highly recommend Travis to anyone looking for a great massage.

I was attempting to make an appointment with a massage therapist at body aware. I called and asked if they accepted my insurance and was told to email my insurance information to be verified and someone would get back to me. I sent the information and heard nothing. I emailed and called twice (left a voice mail ) to see if my information had been received and still have not gotten a response and its been weeks.

How the heck do you make an appointment? Their website doesn't load at all. I tried 3 different browsers (Safari, Puffin, Firefox, iOS 10.3), and I'm not having connectivity issues (their Yelp page loaded quickly/normally and I'm posting this with no problems). I even walked in and there was no place/way to leave a note or request an appointment.

Just got finished having such a wonderful massage from Kira. She got into all the nooks and crannies of my muscles that were filled with tension, which was just what I needed after a big hike two days ago. Her intuition was spot on and I never had to ask for less or more pressure. The atmosphere was lovely with relaxing music and tasteful decor. I will be going back very soon as massage is a must in good self care.

I made a commitment to myself to do something for me on a regular basis. I have always loved getting massages so I randomly found Body Aware and picked Kira as my massage therapist. OMG I love her! I have been seeing her for 4 months now, once a month. She is so kind and thoughtful. She remembers everything I share with her and is really supportive emotionally when I need it. She is very intentional in her work. I always hate when one side of my body gets a different treatments than the other. She is always equally attentive. If you need extra support in a certain area, she always attends to it

We just had a couples' massage at Body Aware, and it was extremely relaxing. The room was comfortable and our masseurs both took care of us, customizing our experience for our needs. I'm only taking a star off because the waiting area feels a little unfinished. It's a pretty cosmetic issue, but it did slightly affect the vibe before the amazing massage happened.

Harmony is hands down the best massage therapist/ energy worker in Portland! I've had chronic back pain my whole life and after a few visits and a lot of stretching I'm healed! She has such an amazing ability to immediately put my body into relax mode. Also I would say that a massage is an understatement, you're getting a full on relaxing healing experience. Thanks harmony you're the best!

Aradia is simply a wonderful massage therapist. She is interested in the work she does and has a highly attuned ability to make you feel comfortable and cared for.
Ask her to use her feet! The work is slow, thoughtful and deeply relaxing. I'm getting relaxed just thinking about it.
Lovely space and lovely person.

My visit was just OK. My session was with Aradia and while it wasn't a bad experience, it was lacking. I never have a great sense of time when I'm on the table and I was very surprised that she totally neglected the 1 spot I went out of my way to mention to her that needed attention. I had a hip surgery last year and told her the area was tight and needed some additional work, she did the rest of my body and then told me time was up. Maybe it was a miscommunication but I left in a bad mood which should be the total opposite after a massage.

I'm kind of picky about any place I visit. I thoroughly review something online through Yelp or do online research via their website before making an appointment anywhere. I'm especially wary about blindly booking massages where a complete stranger is touching your bare body. Yeah, best believe I investigated things to the tee.
So happy that I stumbled upon Body Aware Massage. I receive medical massages through work and am allotted to use a certain amount every year. After reading some great reviews of this place and learned about how conveniently located it was, I booked my appointment

There is something about positive human touch for 75 minutes that makes you feel incredible, and I guess having all of the knots in your back rubbed out is a total plus. Tate is fantastic, always checks in to make sure things are feeling okay and wants to know of any places on your body that needs some extra attention.
Love their space above Townsheds. It's quiet and relaxing and everything you need to feel 100% comfortable, and bonus points for being able to book online. There's usually an appointment within the same week you need/want/are craving a massage.
