“The OSM student clinic is an extraordinary place to get a massage! The students are professional, friendly, and eager to try their varied massage techniques that they have learned. Although it is a clinic, there is still privacy, and once the massage starts, you drift away to a calm and peaceful place. The clinic offers two types of massage: Swedish and Shiatsu. This gives clients a chance to try the benefits of both types of massage. Although different, both Swedish and Shiatsu massage leave me feeling both relaxed and rejuvenated at the same time. Scheduling is easy, everyone is friendly, and the price is very affordable.”

“I love the school and your staff. They are so friendly and welcoming. It is always a pleasure to come in for a student massage or just a visit. You run a great school. I appreciate it.”

“I’ve started visiting the Massage School clinic in 2003. Little did I know that 9 yrs later, I’d still be participating in the student clinic massages. That is due to that fact that the clinic staff is always nice & professional. I’m still amazed at how each student is different in their approach & massage techniques. The students are great at making me feel very comfortable and in turn I am able to relax in their presence. To be able to feel that way with strangers is a statement of how well they are taught and that they believe in what they are doing. I love both the Swedish & Shiatsu clinics. I think all the teachers are awesome instructors (especially Rich & Wendy). Being able to continue visiting the clinic has become an overall important part of my therapeutic health & well-being.”

“When I turn a page in my desk diary and see I have a massage at OSM that week I’m thrilled. At least part of my week is guaranteed to be good. The people are delightful, scheduling easy and why they call the masseuses/masseurs “students” I have no idea, they seem very skilled to me. Whether it’s Swedish or Shiatsu the entire experience is a treat. Sometimes I need help in undoing the damage I inflict on my poor body, other times I ask to be sent into bliss and be gently woken when they are finished. Whatever my needs are they have always been met and you can’t beat the price $35 for about an hour (no tipping allowed) one of the best deals in Portland.”
