Everything Falls into Place
About Us
At Sacral Space Massage & Somatic Guidance, our team of highly skilled massage therapists is dedicated to providing exceptional care for challenging cases that often elude conventional treatments. Specializing in a wide range of hard-to-treat conditions, including head injuries, migraines, emotional trauma, chronic pain, repetitive stress, auto accident recovery, concussion, and whiplash, our therapists are here to offer a unique and effective approach to your well-being.
Our expertise lies in a diverse set of modalities designed to address the complexities of the body-mind connection. We employ Craniosacral Therapy to gently influence the central nervous system, Myofascial Release to release fascial restrictions, Neuromuscular Therapy to target trigger points and normalize neural activity, Visceral Manipulation to enhance organ function, and Somato Emotional Release to address the emotional components of physical ailments.
Our Services
Our signature service blends two therapeutic forms of bodywork-Deep Tissue massage and CranioSacral Therapy. This 90-minute session begins with deep tissue work on your back, hips, and legs, promoting circulation and relieving tension. Once you're deeply relaxed, the CranioSacral Therapy (CST) treatment can begin, where the practitioner uses a very light touch to release restrictions in the soft tissues around the central nervous system.
We also offer a range of additional services, including:
- Myofascial Release and Trigger Point Therapy: Manual techniques designed to alleviate muscle tension and pain by manipulating the fascia and releasing tight knots
- Visceral Manipulation and CranioSacral Therapy: Gentle hands-on approaches that aim to enhance the body's self-healing mechanisms by addressing restrictions and imbalances in the visceral and craniosacral systems
- Somato Emotional Release and Trauma Recovery Coaching: Synergize therapeutic techniques to facilitate the release and resolution of emotional trauma stored in the body, fostering healing and emotional well-being
- Neuromuscular Therapy: Targeted approach that addresses specific muscle and soft tissue imbalances, utilizing advanced massage techniques to alleviate pain, improve flexibility, and restore optimal function
- Intense Injury Recovery: For acute or chronic injuries associated with MVA auto accidents, which require more frequent concentrated attention
- CranioSacral Therapy: A light hands-on full body approach to releasing restrictions in the soft tissues around the central nervous system
What Our Clients Say
"Talk therapy is s h i t. I am amazed at how many hours I've spent doing traditional therapy with no major breakthroughs and then here I am with Brandin and BOOM everything falls into place within the first visit. So grateful to have found her as she has already helped get my life back on track. She helps safely guide me through the necessary and sometimes tough phases of understanding any suppressed emotions." ~ Jess T
"Brandin is the best massage therapist and craniosacral practitioner I have found in Portland. I was recently in an auto accident and her intense injury recovery sessions have been really helpful. She was able to get my elbow feeling better in just a couple sessions. Her space is calming, peaceful, and welcoming. I highly recommend seeing Brandin!" ~ Anna C.
"I have been deeply impacted by my work with Brandin-she is immensely gifted as a healer of both body and spirit. Her many years of experience are obvious the moment her work begins-she is both professional and intuitive, able to both gently guide the session while being completely responsive to feedback, preference, and comfort level. She is knowledgeable in many modalities, which help her work deftly in multiple ways, even in a single session." ~ Sarah A.
