Best Reflexology Massage In Portland

“Alisha did a great job on my deep tissue massage. I have extremely tight shoulder and neck muscles- so tight that many massage therapists are at a loss of what to do and just give up and focus on areas I don't need worked on. Not the case here, she spent the whole hour exactly where I needed it and I feel so much better!“

“George is an amazing massage therapist! I’ve struggled with chronic shoulder pain. I’ve seen many other masseuses and they’ve given relief, but have never gotten it to subside. With George’s amazing skills he was able to get the constant ache/pain to subside! I’d highly recommend George to anyone!“

“I’ve been to many Chinese massage places in Portland — this one is clean, peaceful, and has easy parking. Kiki is professional and effective. I will be back! I recommend highly.“

“I love this place. The nicest people. Very calm environment. It's always a treat to visit.“

“I was experiencing severe neck and shoulder pain, leading to consistent migraines each day, and was very fortunate to find John. Words cannot truly describe the relief I felt after leaving my massage appointment. He's one of those that you secretly want to not spread the word about, so you can continue to see and book with him more easily, but know he deserves the praise and business, so I am here to leave a review! :) I will certainly be telling my friends and family to book with him in the future. Thank you so much for your help! -Brooke Luallin-Nealley“

“After a tiring weekend, I was able to get a great full body massage! The masseuse was very friendly and accommodated to all my needs. Highly recommend!“

“Walked right in and got a much needed full body massage after a long relay race over the weekend. Thank you!“

“My dearest community,
If you have ever struggled with being validated by standard medicine, your community, or yourself, please do your mind, body, and soul the honor of scheduling an appointment with Nicki McDaniel. Please do your mind, body, and soul the honor of relinquishing any preconceived or learned notions that having a physical therapist should solely be a curative option, and not also a preventative one. While in session with Nicki, she begins her practice by facilitating a mind-connection through thoughtful and intellectual dialogue, and follows this by channeling a body-connection through energy and Reiki healing. This, in summation, is what Nicki does in her practice; yet the true healing process that results from her sessions is a masterpiece beyond the grasp of my personal lexicon.

In my attempts to encapsulate the profound influence that Nicki McDaniel has had on my life, I sought out the aid of my “aspirational library.”

In the Awakening, Kate Chopin boldly wrote of a woman who had “perceived that her will had blazed up, stubborn and resistant. She could not... have done other than denied and resisted... She could not realize why or how she should have yielded.”

At the age of nineteen, I was fortunate enough to learn of the power within the things we feel resistant toward. Through a series of seminars, I learned that in the moments where we feel resistance, there is a signal that relays a message—resistance precedes an opportunity to grow. Opening and responding to this message is always a choice, one that is often made when certain aspects of the nervous system are aligned. While functioning in the sympathetic nervous system, it is natural to respond to a message through a modality of fight-or-flight. While functioning in the parasympathetic nervous system, it is natural to respond to a message through a modality of being quiet, of being still, of being within one’s self, opposed to being outside of one’s self and looking within. This state of being exists when one is able to adjust and remove interference from the nervous system through healing methods, i.e., physical therapy and reiki. This knowledge aided in rekindling my fiery and stubborn demeanor, while also helping to nurture my longing for solutions to the chronic conditions I was experiencing at such a young age.

Eckhart Tolle, in the Power of Now, aptly states how “it seems that most people need to experience a great deal of suffering before they will relinquish resistance.”

I can attest to two things: I have experienced a great deal of suffering, and it was when I relinquished my resistance toward naturopathic healing, I was finally able to find Nicki, allowing myself to begin my true healing journey.

“Stressful thoughts reflect a conflict with reality. Stress happens when the mind resists what is.” Within the Way of the Peaceful Warrior, Dan Millman provides a reminder that our mind and our body are constantly sending us signals—of joy, of fear, of hope—and we are only able to truly adapt to reality when we have an awareness of these signals.

The disciplined mental and physical practices that Nicki taught me helped guide me in connecting my mind with my body so that I may listen and respond to sensations I experience. The initial moments of our first ninety-minute session together cultivated a feeling of resistance more powerful than I had felt before. Fortunately, for me, this sensation was welcomed and encouraged by my prior teachings. Following our first session, I left with a list of books to add to my library, and a desire to immediately take off on my adventure. I crossed back over the threshold into the world feeling more lovable, capable, magnificent, and whole than I had ever felt before. I now existed in the world knowing that the universe had gifted me the perfect partner to walk next to on my journey. I now existed in the world having the faith that I could live my life as a powerful and re“

“I am absolutely in love with Polish Day Spa. I received a gift certificate in August 2023 from the owner for performing in a drag show. The fact that I received a gift certificate from the owner for performing for his birthday was so gracious and generous.

I was finally able to use it in early April of this year for a particularly important drag show that I was performing in. Booking the appointment was super easy. On the day of my appointment, I received a warm welcome when I arrived at the salon. The owner was there and recognized me immediately. I got set up with my nail artist, Angelina, and I immediately felt comfortable. This was my first time getting my nails done professionally, and I felt both heard and accommodated.

The facility itself is very nice, clean, and quirky. I had some nice conversation with Angelina, but also did not feel any pressure to keep the conversation going. To be honest, I really love observing and watching the process come together. I was delighted to watch the professional do what they are good at. The set of stiletto gel extensions I receive lasted for a little over two weeks. I should note that my nails grow FAST, so they could’ve lasted up to three weeks, which was the estimate I was provided.

I loved this salon so much that I came back for a removal/fill/new set. This time, I wanted a set just for myself and was hoping for something glamorous, intricate, and showstopping. I booked my appointment with Angelina again and she was a superstar. Her artistry is out of this world and I definitely recommend her. However, I get the impression that all of the artists at Polish Day Spa are extremely good at what they do. I recommend going here for above and beyond service.“

“Absolutely above and beyond. Also BEST prices in all of Portland (seriously). Jenny was extremely thorough, professional, and kind. Can’t wait for my next massage!“

“So relaxing! I love coming here! Raven was exceptional! Listened to me as well as what her hands could feel. Truly wonderful experience!“

“Warm and welcoming space with lots of attention to detail and customer service! I don’t normally get my nails done, but I now want to return after a fantastic manicure and pedicure. Foot massages there are 10/10.“

“Best therapeutic massages i have ever had. Joseph is amazing, he is kind and he listens. I have been to so many, i know best.“

“Claire was so welcoming and the massage was so relaxing it was such a calm environment and she was so attentive“

“The experience and service here was excellent! Lisa is a fantastic masseuse and the foot and hand reflexology was divine too! Going back again this week for another one hour massage!“

“By far the best pedicure, massages I’ve ever had and definitely the best service!!

Where to began!? You are greeted with open arms! This was our first time and I booked my appointment wrong for 3 people but that didn’t matter they were so nice and accommodating!
We got a wellness pedicure, 30 minute reflexology and a gel pedicure. You also get a complimentary beverage.

My sister in law got the wellness pedicure which is a dry pedicure, she is on the nervous side and doesn’t like her feet being touch so this was a big step and when I say Marina took such great care of her and her sensitivities!! She now wants to get pedicures on a regular basis, but only by Hand to Sole!

I got the Gel Pedicure, Sohn was so kind and attentive! She gave such a great massage and helped me pick out the perfect color. Loved her attention to detail in the painting and massage!

My boyfriend got the reflexology massage by Angella. He has been having back and knee problems, and his back is recovering from going out recently, he did not mention that and Angella immediately knew where his problem areas on his body were just by massaging!! When I tell you this salon and massage truly targets and cares about your body I’m not joking! When he stood up he had never felt better, he said his shoulder pain and back pain was at ease and felt better! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Side note: we drive from Independence and will definitely be returning regularly.

Specialities: Reflexology massage

Cleanliness: Very clean, sanitary salon.“

About 175lbs of muscle. I workout a lot and enjoy a good massage. I am a bit of a snob when it comes to massages. I won’t even tip more than 10% when it’s bad. I tipped 25%.

Massage strength and time in the right places 5/5.“

“Nancie is always so kind and thoughtful and really knows art!It’s always a pleasure to visit Portland Reflexology.The first time she worked on my feet, it felt like I was walking on a cloud for 3 hours afterwards!I highly recommend Nancie to anyone who needs reflexology!“

“I generally have trouble relaxing whenever I have an appointment for a self care service. Anchi was incredibly kind and her calming presence immediately put me at ease. The massage was amazing, easily the best that I've had! She did a fantastic job focusing on the areas that needed extra attention and used the perfect amount of pressure. I highly recommend her services and hope to be back soon!“

“Really lovely experience. Samantha listens to you and will tailor the massage to your liking. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Very good and helps out ur mind body and soul to go to work the next day !¡!deep tissue on my back has improved !!!!thanx sheeyknee“

“Visiting a classmate and she wanted a massage. Being new to the area where she lived i had to look at Yelp for a reputable place to go. The place was clean , the therapist spoke a little English and we decided to try. My therapist was short and very funny. My friends was a larger person. I was in total relax mode after my massage. Then to top it off gave me a 15 minute foot massage and i was falling asleep. My classmates said that I was perfect for what she needed.“

“OMG!! Erik was OUTSTANDING!! I can't wait to go back!! I tipped him $40. It's worth every dime! I felt young again after his massage! I'll be back! I've already told friends!“

“Came here with 2 girlfriends for the 45 min foot soak and massage. Good atmosphere. They also massaged hands, arms and scalp and used hot towels and a hot stone on the feet. Very relaxing.“

“This place is super helpful if you need to relax or release some muscular tension. This Asian massage parlor will take very good care of you -- In Chinese culture they call it a "tuina" which seems like a "tune up" for the body. If you like a hard pressure style massage, I recommend going here. If soft pressure is your thing, this probably wouldn't be the place for you. Be mindful when entering, their work space is contained by one big curtain -- wish they have a sign on their door that says "Please talk softly upon entering". Check out Fly Dragon next time you're in need! They guys are always super nice.“
