About

Mika completed her massage licensing program at East West College of healing arts in Portland, Oregon in 2010. Since then, she has enjoyed working as a private practitioner and as a therapist at a busy chiropractic clinic.  Whether you are getting a massage for pain or self-care, Mika’s massage is relaxing and intuitive. Her session is generally calm and quiet, for you to be grounded and centered. Her interest in this career grew over the course of her own spiritual development and later turned into a passion for sharing the benefit of the power of touch. She specializes in a combination of Deep Tissue and Swedish massage customized to accommodate your needs. In addition to her traditional private practice operation, she has worked as a volunteer at Legacy Hospice in Portland, OR for 2 years providing weekly massages to the patients with end-of-life care. She also has some experiences working on clients with the trauma/PTSD, and continues to learn the way to help them with healing touch. (Coming soon! -  Oncology Massage.  Mika is taking an intensive course to be a qualified therapist of the Society of Oncology Massage) She truly believes in the benefits of massage and that massage can have a positive effect on your daily life. Her trained techniques are based on relaxation and self-healing. Using touch, sound and scent she allows for the body to begin correcting itself from the nervous system and muscular system for better alignment and blood flow leaving you feeling good about yourself both mentally and physically. Experienced in working with people of all ages and abilities, she truly cares about your recovery and holistic health. Originally from the northeastern Japan, Mika has lived in different places around the world and within the United States. When she is not working, she is a dedicated parent to her young child and enjoys finding miracles in ordinary days.
